He added: &amp;quot;It was a very easy decision to put these three together and you hope it&amp;#039;s going to work and they&amp;#039;re going to get on well. And luckily they did.&amp;quot; Lovato was also full of praise for the new judges, saying: &amp;quot;The whole cast this year, there&amp;#039;s something really special about it. &amp;quot;And when we come together I feel it&amp;#039;s actually a family, which is actually so rare and I feel like it never happens, especially on these shows.&amp;quot;    \u00A9 Fox / Ray Mickshaw  &amp;#039;X Factor&amp;#039; USA season 3 judges  Cowell also stated that he hopes the latest season will stand out from its rivals, saying: &amp;quot;I just thought that all these shows were beginning to blur into the same show. &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s really the legacy of the show. It&amp;#039;s got to be that when you watch a show, you really believe that you&amp;#039;re watching a star being found and developed.&amp;quot; The X Factor USA will launch its latest season on Wednesday, September 11. The second part of its premiere will air the following night. Photo gallery - X Factor US season 3 auditions: "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
