Holy shiz, Beliebers!

X Factor has definitely been gathering up as much star power as they can this season and that’s not about to stop anytime soon!

Not only did Simon Cowell tack on Britney Spears and Demi Lovato as judges, but Nick Jonas, Marc Anthony and Justin Bieber were all placed as guest mentors during the judges’ homes round!

Oh, and we can't forget newly appointed hosts, Khloe Kardashian and Mario Lopez!

Now it sounds like helping L.A. narrow down his contestants won’t be the ONLY appearance the Biebs will be making on XF!

Last night, Justin tweeted:

Bristol Palin was able to survive last week's elimination even after receiving the lowest score, but she couldn't escape her fate on Dancing With The Stars: All Stars this week.

Sarah Palin's daughter and pro partner Mark Ballas were the latest couple to be voted off of the celebrity dancing competition.

While chatting with Jimmy Kimmel after her elimination, the 21-year-old mom still trying "to process it all" when she said:

Fifth judges, gather ‘round! We’ve got some deliberating to do!

Last week’s X Factor left us off with a cliffhanger, as we FINALLY find out tonight just which contestants make it through to the live shows starting on November 1st!

In tonight’s two-hour episode, the judges will narrow down 24 acts to only 16, leaving each judge with four acts in each category.

Check out the sneak peek (above) to see just how intense it gets when Demi has to choose between CeCe Frey and Jillian Jensen!

Oh no! Could CeCe’s confidence end up winning Demi over? Though, what about her connection with bullying victim, Jillian???

Guess we’ll have to wait until tonight to see who survives!

To hold you over until then, check out Britney choosing between two teens, L.A. getting caught up over Vino Alan and Tara Simon and Simon deciding between Playback and LYLAS… AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Aww! Someone's a Sadface McGee!

But who wouldn't be when kissing goodbye to some sparkly diamonds worth $80k?!

Courtney Robertson, the ex-fiancée to Bachelor Ben Flajnik, was spotted Sunday looking rather glum and fidgety while returning her never worn engagement ring to celeb jewelers Neil Lane (above).

As per any Bachelor/Bachelorette contract, no winning contestants get to keep wedding swag if they don't actually go through with the wedding.

Sadsies!

But from what we hear, Courtney doesn't seem SO upset about

Oh no!

Even though our baby girl Britney Spears and sassy sweet Demi Lovato are two cherries atop a gynourmous X Factor sundae, it seems the original X Factor over in the UK is more a melting ice-creamy MESS, and is dealing with all sorts of dramz!!

First we hear that Nicole Scherzinger is NOT happy about her judging stint on the show, and NOW we hear head judge Gary Barlow is threatening to QUIT over Sunday night's results show!

Apparently, there are whisperings that judge

Last night’s X Factor revealed which 24 out of 60 contestants made it through boot camp and onto the judges’ homes round!

The two categories featured on Wednesday night’s episode were the Young Adults category, mentored by Demi Lovato and her ex's brother guest mentor, Nick Jonas, and the Groups category, which Simon Cowell took on with Marc Anthony!

One contestant that has just continuously stood out ever since her audition is bullying victim, Jillian Jensen, who is clearly one of the frontrunners in Demi’s category — if not the whole competition!

Check out Jillian’s performance of Sara Bareilles’ Gravity (above) and hear what the JoBro had to say about the young hopeful!

STUNNING! Gurl makes you feel each and every lyric and emotion with those vocals!

We hope DemDem will decide to give her another shot, even if she thought Jillian took their advice “too seriously!”

As for the other five contestants that made it through to Demi's home? Cece Frey, Willie Jones, Jennel Garcia, Nick Youngerman and Paige Thomas!

Okay, we're sorry, but SERIOUSLY?!

How do these shows continue to dominate the ratings?!

Haven't audiences realize that the relationships NEVER work out?!

The latest in the long line of Bachelor break-ups is most recent winning couple Ben Flajnik and Courtney Robertson, who have announced that their engagement is
