Apparently Simon Cowell would have rather had Britney Spears beating cars with umbrellas again on 'X Factor' instead of just, you know, showing up late once in a while.

Carly Rose Sonenclar's 'How Do I Live' duet with LeAnn Rimes on the 'X Factor' finale was a mess, thanks largely to Rimes' erratic singing, which may have contributed to 13-year-old Sonenclar's failure to win the 'X Factor' title.

The lovely Alicia Keys turned in a primitive yet Asian-inspired performance of ‘Girl on Fire’ on ‘X Factor‘ tonight (Nov. 29), surrounded by a troupe of ‘Coming to America’-like dancers and ripples of tribal percussion.
