It certainly seems that way!
Britney Spears is currently in Austin, Texas for the first round of auditions for The X Factor, and the pop princess reportedly walked off the set after "stripper contestant butchered her song [Hold It Against Me]," according to a witness in the crowd, who posted the above shot of Brit's empty seat at the judging table. E! Online's Marc Malkin was also at the taping, and he tweeted a little over an hour ago, "where is britney spears? she's been gone for four contestants." Yikes!
A source connected with the show tells TMZ that Britney wasn't upset about the performance, but rather, she "needed a break." Brit seemed to be in good spirits when she arrived on the set with fellow judges Demi Lovato, Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid, so it's unclear why she took such a lengthy break. Think this was planned? Or is Britney having a breakdown already!?

| Britney definitely had another meltdown. This is proof she's not ready to step back into the spotlight! | |
| I think Britney may have overreacted to a bad audition, but it will be entertaining to watch later! | |
| I think Simon Cowell planned this all along. Brit probably even rehearsed it! |
