Demi Lovato is Barely Making 7 Figures for 'The X-Factor' - Report

Yesterday was a big day for pop star Demi Lovato as she officially joined the judging panel of the hit show The X-Factor. Alongside Simon Cowell, L.A. Reid and Britney Spears, Lovato will hit our TV screens this fall. While Miss Spears will be raking in a $15 million paycheck for joining the show, Lovato's lion's share is considerably less.

According to TMZ, she will just scrape $1 million to become a judge. These reports also indicate that the "Skyscraper" singer has constructed her tour schedule around X-Factor tapings. Someone wants to please Master Cowell, huh?

Sources tell TMZ, the 19-year-old singer's raking in just north of a million to join the gang on "X Factor"  -- still damn impressive, but face it ... she's no Britney.

Simon Cowell raved about Demi, praising her accomplishments at such a young age ...  insisting she will connect with younger viewers.

As we reported, Britney signed a record $15 million deal to work as a judge on the show -- so Demi's getting table scraps ... but in the TV biz, scraps can make you a millionaire.

And just to show how desperately Demi wanted to appease her new "X Factor" overlords -- we're told the former Disney star even structured her upcoming tour around the "X Factor" tapings.
