X Factor marked the end of a lot of Britney’s relevance unfortunately. I don’t think her performance on the show was very popular with the public 

I also have this theory that it gave off the impression to GP (especially X Factor’s young audience) that she was way older than what she really was. I even remember Simon joking at the time that she was 45. Her makeup, chothes choices and hairstyles did scream middle aged soccer mum, apart from maybe the first day (pink dress) where she looked stunning.

Also I’m still annoyed that Xtina and The Voice outviewed. They played dirty.

I also read a while back that she was occasionally dissed on this show and several contestants argued back to her... anyone know anything about this?

A tryout said something about her being autotuned. I cant remember if they aired it but it did happen.

I would like to bring up how we thought she was gonna perform Scream & Shout on X Factor and when she didn’t we had melt downs

it's on the first episode I linked

there is one of these clown contestants they put just to cause controversy, a 50 year old man performing his original song Candy Girl. The judges are like, no, and then he tells Demi that she uses autotune, and so Britney defends her telling him

To Britney’s face?

Are you sure you’re not referring to that guy who said Demi used auto tune and Britney got involved to defend her?

Britney was really kinda rude here....The way she just walked off without saying anything.

She was very anxious, at the time we used to see her psoriasis getting worse

you can see how she scratches her foot, and even one of the girls asked what was it

 

And the way she left, I think they were on a commercial break, and they were calling her back, so she just ran to where Ellen was. It was the same day this happened

 

and this

Do you think she was very medicated and out of it in this? Poor Brit she looks sooo anxious

That's been the mystery all this time, people thought she might have been going out of whatever they were giving her during FF era to look like a zombie, and others thought they were given her something different.

Thing is, she was at least showing some emotion in 2012, whether it was "a negative" emotion or not, but it was different than the sedated state she showed in 2011. By 2013 she appeared so much more calmed, no psoriasis, and her interviews were much more lively and less awkward.

There were many stuff going on behind the scenes though, her requesting the conservatorship to be reduced, getting engaged to Jason, Jason becoming co-conservator, and whatever they were doing to her medication.

And it wasn't even that bad, but watching the episode again, the Don Philip part and how they edited everything, I think it was even worse for her to watch the final product.

However I still believe she did way better than during the FF era

It made her likable. But I felt with Paula being fired, Britney was the Paula of this season. The Nice one to compliment Simon. But Still the shady face to fifth Harmony Makin it to the finals is epic

[Spicechinodiva]

Do we still know what happened between her and Jason. Did he cheat on her, that was the only engagement that was approved and only time the boyfriend was involved in the conservatorship.

THats probably due to the GP never actually gave her a chance. The majority of people doesn't exactly think Britney is talented.. C-ship or not, britney was always seen as a pop-robot with no input, autotune, lip- synch, and couldn't actually sing. Thats how majority look at her. So having her become a judge on x-factor was to most people just weird and negative, before the show even began. She never had a chance. A season more would have done it otherwise. 

Just look at the america got talent show with the different judges they have, they have to prove themself over and over.

You said it all. That’s how people who isn’t a fan of her see her unfortunately and that’s perception was high when she was at her peak. Sad.

Psoriasis? When did she have it?

That was not Christina fault. It was NBC decision to go toe to toe with FOX. And the Peacock won.

it was seen basically in all her 2012 appearances

 

but apparently it started since a couple of years before that

Never saw this before, that was probably side effect from her forced medication.
