Get ready for it. Next week the battle between the singing reality shows begins. It's Simon Cowell versus Cee Lo Green. It's Britney versus Christina. For the first time the 2 shows will go head to head.  The Voice  starts Monday and Tuesday and X factor kicks off Wednesday and Thrusday of next week. But, NBC has thrown the first punch announcing this week that it will have a Wednesday show next week to battle head to head with the X Factors premiere night. Simon Cowell released a statement saying he wasn't happy with NBC deciding to do this; he believed there was a gentlemens agreement that they wouldn't go head to head on the same night. Well, it's happening.Who will come out on top? I see it as a battle for number 2. American Idol was still the #1 singing show last season and beat both The Voice and X factor in total viewership. Can Britney Spears bring in the viewers for X factor and Simon? And, at this point do the  wannabe singers of each show even matter. It seems it's all about the judges now. Let the battle begin.
