X Factor USA Season 3 details. (Contains Some Spoilers)
 

Here's some trivial information
-Categories are back to Boys, Girls, Groups, Over 25s
-Prize is now 1 million and a Sony Music Contract. (The Million is garanteed, the 5 million wasn't. Epic is Sony's Sister Company
-In case you didn't know LA Reid and Britney Quit, Replaced with Kelly Rowland and Spanish Singer Paulina Rubio (She's like a trashier version of Shakira) Simon and Demi are back
-It's been confirmed that both Boot Camp and Judges Houses have been axed. A New round is taking it's place.
-Despite rumors of all mentors getting an act from each category, the twitter account mentioned that Demi and Kelly loved their categories in quotation


I think catergory split could go like this


Also a Promotional Poster that has Demi choking Simon

Simon looks awful in the promotion poster.

Gutting that the US X Factor gets the absolutely awful and annoying Kelly Rowland. Wish she'd been put on the UK one.

Catergories according to a trustworthy source on IDF/Idol Forums



Also they'll be making the final cut to the 3 or 4 acts for each catergory two days before the show begins. Hmmmmm.

There's huge speculation that the US could be doing the same bootcamp chair thing the UK is doing.

:amazed: :dance: at a certain two returnee contestants.

Yep it's been confirmed that the US is doing the chair thing. Except instead of cutting it to 6. It's to 4

This is the set where it's being recorded, Looks great.
and according to audience members, This is the official mentor parings (Jork was wrong)

What's the chair thing?

Oh on the UK version Bootcamp has a round where the top 10 of each catergory is singing in front of the whole panel. If the mentor likes them, they'll keep them and the act takes a seat in the top 4. If not they're out. If the Top 4 chairs are full then the mentor must eliminate someone that is already in the top 4.

EDIT: We just got word on who's through via the Girls and Overs (And it includes some people who've been on the show before

Girls


Overs

Oh, so they're doing that instead of Judge's Houses. I think that I'll actually be watching this season.

the act you're talking about isn't there, about a month ago they had all of the acts that made past the first judges audition and with performing another song, it was cut down to 40 acts. They were among the acts cut

forgot to add who else is through

Boys


Groups
