The reality TV judge told Digital Spy that the upcoming X Factor Live Shows would be "distressing and nerve-wracking" for herself and her acts, claiming that it isn't as exciting for the people involved in the show as it is for viewers.
"I'm ready for it. I can handle it. I wouldn't classify it as exciting," she said. "It's exciting as a viewer, but it's distressing and nerve-wracking as a judge and a contestant.
"I'm sure everyone will have a lot of fun at our expense."
She also claimed that Simon Cowell has taken a hands-off approach with this year's series, only dealing "behind-the-scenes with producers" rather than the judges directly.

Speaking about how she would prepare Ella Henderson, Jade Ellis and Lucy Spraggan for the media and fan attention that awaits them, Contostavlos commented: "I can't prepare them. There is no preparing. You can only say the same thing over and over again, 'Let it go over your head'."The X Factor Live Shows start this weekend on ITV1.
