Simon Cowell has confirmed that Britney Spears will appear on this season of 'The X Factor', and said he doesn’t mind if she shaves her head before she goes on stage.
Spears will perform her new single ‘Womanizer’ on the ITV talent show in what will be her first trip to Britain since 2004.
Cowell told ITV: "We have the number one show in England. It's the best show for her to perform on. We're absolutely thrilled to have her.
"Everyone wants to work with her because she's a star. She's the number one booking in the world at the moment for a show. The fact that she goes a bit crazy occasionally makes her more interesting.
"And, if she wants to shave her head before she comes on the show, she's welcome to. I don't care."
It has also been reported that the release Spears' new single has been delayed along with her sixth album 'Circus'.
The Sun reports that a web-leaked snippet of the single was picked up by local radio in the US, and that listener reaction was "poor", prompting efforts to improve the song ahead of its general release.
Spears is trying to speed up her return after stealing the show at last month's MTV Video Music Awards.
'Womanizer' is due out in late November.
