But now that Britney, 30, has signed up to be a judge on next season's The X Factor (FOX is investing a reported $15 million in the star) those close to Brit have decided it's time for her to spruce up and slim down.

"Britney's publicist and others are urging her to get a full, head-to-toe makeover," a Spears family friend tells OK!.
