Producers for “The X Factor” wowed contestants and viewers alike when the groups of singers were brought to the glamorous homes of the FOX show’s four judges.

One problem, the mansions that they showed which allegedly belonged to Simon Cowell and Britney Spears were actually someone else’s digs, according to TMZ. In fact, one of the houses (which the show said belonged to Simon) actually belonged to MLB star Alex Rodriguez. Meanwhile, Britney’s fake “home” in Malibu was shown instead of her real house in Calabasas.
