"Britney Spears has appeared to confirm that she will return to The X Factor USA judging panel next season. The &amp;#039;Toxic&amp;#039; singer was walking the red carpet at an X Factor finalist party, when she was quizzed on if she plans to come back for the show&amp;#039;s third season.      &amp;quot;Yes, definitely,&amp;quot; Spears answered. Spears was whisked away before she could comment further, but did previously suggest that judging The X Factor has been very rewarding. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a lot of fun, you know. It&amp;#039;s different from anything I&amp;#039;ve ever done before, but it&amp;#039;s a lot of fun,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;We get to sit back and get to be entertained \u2013 it&amp;#039;s wonderful! It&amp;#039;s really cool.&amp;quot; The star had hinted last week that an X Factor season three return was possible, but coyly declined to offer any concrete answers at the time. Spears joined the X Factor judging panel for the second season along with Demi Lovato to replace Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger. She is apparently earning $15 million (\u00A39.3m) for the current season of the Fox reality competition. The X Factor USA was renewed by Fox for a third run in late October. Fox airs The X Factor&amp;#039;s next live episode tonight (November 7) at 8/7c. &amp;#039;The X Factor&amp;#039; USA latest pictures:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
