Are Boys Turning The Tables on Taylor Swift? Listen! 

Holding her signature red microphone, Taylor sang a beautiful rendition of “State of Grace“. When co-host Khloe Kardashian asked the singer what advice she had for the young contestants this season, Taylor said, “I think the advice I would give them is just, no matter how tired [you are], what kind of bad day you’re having, just be nice to people, you know?”

“Yeah, we really hate each other. I’m so sick to my stomach that I have to be by his side. You know when you’re that unattractive it’s just hard to be with someone,” Khloe jokes. “He seriously is the nicest guy ever. I’m in good company, he’s great at what he does. So, it takes some of the pressure off of me…I’ve never hosted before. I think we’re going to have fun. We’ve known each other for a while. I feel I’ll be comfortable around him, so he’ll make it easy for me.”

“I’m not a liar. I like to say what it is and everyone thought I was just BS-ing everyone when they were like, ‘So, you got the job?’I was like, ‘I promise you, no one has confirmed anything with me.’ I would tell everyone if I did. So, I was just waiting for someone to tell me, but everyone knew before me,” Khloe tells us. So, does she know exactly what she’ll be doing? “Absolutely not. I have no idea.”

Is Khloe Nervous?
“What if I get kicked off the show because I say something so bad? That is what I’m nervous about. Listen, I can’t be anybody else but myself. I just have to control the language a little bit,” she says. “The good thing is I’m friends with Demi [Lovato], like I’m comfortable around these people. I mean, Simon [Cowell] I’ve never met. So, as long as I sit on his lap and talk to him, it will be fine.”

Sophie told us: “I think everyone’s always terrified of Simon. In all honesty, I was more terrified of Britney, because she really knows what it takes to be in this business and to have a prolonged career in it.”

Considering Brit Brit has sold over 100 million records worldwide…being frightened to sing in front of her is kind of understandable!

Britney Spears has landed herself a judging role on the music reality show, and has been tweeting up a storm preparing for the premiere. Brit’s known for having a soft heart and a sweet little voice to go along with it. So when auditioners step up in front of her, will she have the heart to say no?

Britney has been “Lucky” in her successful career, but On Air with Ryan Seacrest wondered if she’d be able to tell people with big dreams that they just weren’t good enough. Here’s what she had to say:

Did Simon Cowell Say That Khloé Kardashian Will Host The X Factor? [AUDIO]

“There were the ones that would come on and they really thought that they had it. You could see it in their eyes how believable they were about it. It’s just really hard and it would break your heart to tell them no.”

Thankfully for Brit, if anyone is going to be able to tell you how to break bad news, it would be fellow judge Simon Cowell, who is notorious for his harsh reactions and comments.

Will Britney have you cheering for her judging capabilities, or will you be saying oops, she did it again? Tune into The X Factor Wednesdays on Fox to find out!
