Demi Lovato VMAs: Will Hit the Studio to Record New Album Following MTV Event [VIDEO]

In a recent radio interview with the KDWB State Fair Booth, pop icon Demi Lovato announced that following her MTV VMA pre-show performance in September, she plans on spending the majority of October and November in the studio in preparation of a fourth studio album.

Not only that, but the "X-Factor" judge also hinted that she'd be prepared to release a new single sometime in December.

During Lovato's brief Minnesota pit stop at the KDWB booth, the 20-year-old songstress openly gabbed about her hit single "Give Your Heart a Break," her friendship with fellow members of the pop rock band Hot Chelle Rae, and just what it's like to work alongside Simon Cowell, Britney Spears, and L.A. Reid on the hit reality show "X-Factor." Check out a clip of the interview below.

Looks like the former Disney star has a lot of exciting things going for her. Check out her pre-VMA performance on MTV on Sept. 6, and catch the second season premiere of the "X-Factor" on Fox on Sept. 12.
