Speaking of spoilers, if the acts for the live shows are going to be chosen by judges Simon Cowell, Demi Lovato, Paulina Rubio and Kelly Rowland, in front of a live audience, how do you keep the results under wraps? Maybe the hopefuls will be performing in front of a live audience, while the results are taped later in the studio.
This season, producer and judge, Simon Cowell, has done away with boot camp and the judges houses. There are no details on the reconfigured middle rounds. But Simon did have this to say to TV Guide regarding the changes:
There’s a middle section to the show that is going to be really dramatic, very tough on us and the contestants, and very high-pressure. You’ve never seen this before on one of these shows. It will look more like the live shows than the boot camp, which is completely gone, along with the judges’ homes. It was the one element of the show I wasn’t happy with, and it looked too similar to what everybody else is doing.
Hm. What do you think the changes will look like?
