Acknowledging a few mistakes made on the first season of The X Factor – too much judge bickering, overly involved production numbers – Simon Cowell told People Magazine this week he’ll evaluate all aspect of the show for season two and that 2012 will be a “bloodbath.”
We assume the producer was talking about the on-air competition, but might he also have been referring to backstage changes on the way?
With rumors that Steve Jones won’t be asked back as host, Nicole Scherzinger recently laid the groundwork for her departure, as well.
Scherzinger said she had planned to release an album in 2011, but her judging gig was too “time consuming.”
Will you miss Nicole as a judge if she leaves? The former Pussycat Doll came under fire a couple of this this season, actually receiving death threats after not voting to keep Drew Ryniewicz on for another week. Do you want Scherzinger to return to the panel next year?
