If only X-Factor USA was as entertaining in front of the camera as it was off of it.
Today, the NY Post is reporting that co-host Khloe Kardashian has not been asked to return to the show alongside Mario Lopez for X-Factor's third, and barring a miracle, presumably LAST season in the U.S.
To make things even more interesting, supposedly Cheryl Cole is in talks to return back to the U.S. version for another chance at things after being (un-fairly) fired during the audition rounds last year:
Meanwhile, Brit singer Cheryl Cole, who was unceremoniously dumped as a judge last year, is in talks to return to the show — possibly as part of a judging panel that would be comprised of Cowell and three younger women.Cole — who was a judge on the U.K. version of “X Factor” — filed a $2.3 million lawsuit against the show last December, claiming the show still owed her money after replacing her just a few weeks into the first season.
Her return could be part of a settlement.
This show is a damn mess. Whoever greenlighted a third season of the show at FOX must have gotten a damn good BJ from Simon Cowell because if Britney Spears couldn't save it, can anyone else?
i feel like all of these talent shows are missing the point by making celebrity judges the focus of their shows instead of the talent.
ReplyDeleteof all the commercials by these shows that i feel bombarded with not a single one shows any contestants singing or using their talent.
and the shows focus on contestants that are the full package (i.e.: young and fuckable) instead of talented individuals whose talent can be nurtured despite their looks.
Totally agree.
