Rihanna has agreed to be a judge for the second season of American X Factor, according to claims made by MediaTakeOut.com based on an anonymous source they say is an insider.
The snitch said that [Rihanna] wanted to be on X-Factor, but we all thought that [Britney Spears] had it . . . when [Rihanna] found out that they wanted her instead, she jumped at [the opportunity].
According to the source Rihanna can thank her very capable managers from RocNation for booking her the gig, which will mean a fat paycheck for the Bajan beauty. MediaTakeOut's source indicated that RiRi may be making $15 to $20 million a year, plus perks.
