Nicole Scherzinger, Steve Jones and Paula Abdul fired from X-Factor.

'The aXe Factor' -- Paula Abdul fired because she was too 'soft'

*Judge Nicole Scherzinger and host Steve Jones have been unceremoniously dumped from the X Factor USA after just one season.


Simon Cowell's former darling Paula Abdul today confirmed she had also been fired from the panel in a desperate shake-up by the mogul and the show's producers.
'Yes, it’s true; I won’t be returning to The X Factor next season,' Abdul said in a statement today.


'I’ve learned through my longevity in this industry that business decisions often times override personal considerations.


She continued: 'Simon is, and will remain a dear friend of mine and I’ve treasured my experience working this past season. I want nothing more than for The X Factor to exceed ALL of their wildest dreams. This truly has been a blessing and I am most grateful.'

Cowell, who first worked with Abdul on American Idol, wants to re-boot the show after its ratings fell short of expectations when it was launched last year.

SIMON'S STATEMENT IN FULL

 'I want to say a massive thank you to Paula, Nicole and Steve for being part of The X Factor last year. We had a lot of fun making the show together and importantly, we found some real talent and stars. You do develop friendships with the people you work with and Paula, in particular, is a very close friend and I expect to be working with her on another project in the near future. I'm sure all three are going to have massive success in what they do next , but now is the time to thank them all for everything they did last year.'

The decision to dismiss Abdul has surprised many, given how hard Cowell worked to secure her on the panel.


It took several months for her contract to negotiated and she only closed her deal hours before the first televised audition.


'You just have to get that chemistry, and she’s right,' he said at the time. 'I’ve never found anyone better than her.'


Both Abdul and Scherzinger were embroiled in the controversy surrounding the shock elimination of 13-year-old frontrunner Rachel Crow.


Cowell hinted at a major changes on the show last month when he was quoted as saying: 'We change these shows all the time.'
 

And he said in a statement today: 'I want to say a massive thank you to Paula, Nicole and Steve for being part of The X Factor last year.  I'm sure all three are going to have massive success in what they do next , but now is the time to thank them all for everything they did last year.'


Although the X Factor performed solidly in the ratings, hovering around the 12 million mark, it did not attract the same kind of huge viewing figures regularly attained by Cowell's former show American Idol.

Cowell had also recently admitted that that he may have been overconfident when it came to the American version of his hit show, after ratings did not reach his 20 million prediction.


He said he became ‘a bit too cocky' last year and admitted the slumping viewing figures had 'put my ego in check'.


Record executive L.A. Reid, who has previously worked with Mariah Carey, Pink, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, survived the cut.


Nicole managed a brave face as she stepped out in New York City in a black lacy top, skinny black jeans and an oversized fluffy fur gilet.

Deadline reports that sources say neither Jones, Scherzinger and Abdul left the show of their own accord.


But Nicole's camp insist it was her decision not to return.

'She wants to focus on her music career,' a source said. 'She's spoken to Simon [Cowell] and he's given her his blessing.'

Nicole, 33, is currently rehearsing for her upcoming European tour that kicks off next month.

'X Factor took a lot more of her time than she ever expected,' the source said. 'She didn't have any time really to work on her music. She was doing X Factor six days a week.'

Paula Abdul is rumoured to also be ditched from the hit show, leaving just Simon and L.A. Reid

Nicole had originally been slated to be a presenter on the U.S. version of the TV talent show, but ended up stepping onto the judging panel when original judge Cheryl Cole was ditched.


'She found out today,' a show source told E! Online. 'At this point, the only ones staying are Simon and L.A. Reid.'


Another source confirms to E! News that both Paula and Nicole's contracts were not renewed.

'A shame': Steve took to his Twitter account to announce the disappointing news

'Simon wants to take the show in a different direction,' the insider added.

Jones took to his Twitter account to call his departure 'a shame.'

Drake wants to play US President Barack Obama in a film

Drake apparently has White House aspirations. The rapper has revealed that he dreams of playing President Obama in a biopic.

"I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him.

That's the goal," the rapper told VH1 News at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this week.

Drake, who has acting experience from his days on the Canadian teen drama "Degrassi: The Next Generation," says that he is already prepping for the role.

"I watch all the addresses," he says. "Any time I see him on TV, I don’t change the channel. I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice.

Rapper Drake believes he has the skills and looks to play Barack Obama in a movie.

The rapper does bear a strong resemblance to Obama.

Apparently, Drake is hoping to revive his acting career while continuing as a musician.

Should he ever be offered a chance to play Obama, Drake might want to take notes from Fred Armisen, who impersonates the president on "Saturday Night Live."

Armisen told Page Six that the key to playing the commander in chief is in "the way he blinks." The comedian elaborates, "Sometimes he’ll keep his eyes closed a millisecond longer than other people."

The Canadian believes that if a script was presented to him, he'd be more than ready for the job.

"If you ask anyone who knows me, I'm pretty good at impressions," the 25-year-old claimed.

Drake also revealed that he is currently writing his own script, adding: "I've been reading scripts for a while.

I want to do something great. I want to do something for my culture: the younger people who are still in tune with everything going on. I'm actually writing with my friends right now."

Back together? Rihanna and Chris Brown party at the same club

Reports of a Rihanna-Chris Brown reunion just keep on rolling in.

*According to TMZ, the pair, who split in 2009 after Chris assaulted his then girlfriend, both partied at West Hollywood club, Greystone Manor, last night, fuelling rumours they're back together.

Tweeters reported that the pair had no contact with each other during the night, and they left the venue separately…but still, gossipers will gossip, especially seeing the last we heard was that RiRi had been secretly visiting her ex.

Chris' rep has denied the former couple are reuniting, saying that the rapper was at the club with his 'aspiring model' girlfriend, Karrueche Tran.

According to the rep, Chris and RiRi are 'just friends'...but the "With You"singer has moved on from his former flame with aspiring model Karrueche Tran, who was also at the club.

As the pair's tangled web expands to include new significant others, so does the drama. According to Media Takeout, Chris' new girlfriend and Rihanna confronted one another at the nightclub and things got heated before the "Man Down" singer's bodyguards separated the pair.

Karrueche is reportedly upset that Rihanna's male counterpart in her "We Found Love" music video bears a striking resemblance to Chris Brown and Rihanna was less than enthusiastic when a video of Karrueche making fun of her Barbados accent surfaced.

While Brown is speaking out against the report, instead of responding to the rumors, Rihanna has been posting a series of vacation photos on her Twitter. In them, she’s seen posing on the beach in her bikini, hanging with her friends on a surfboard and working out on a treadmill.

Rihanna has also been focusing on the positive, which includes another week at the top of the charts for her Calvin Harris-produced track, “We Found Love.” As previously reported, she’s also set to perform with Coldplay at the Grammy Awards on February 12. She appears on their “Mylo Xyloto” track, “Princess of China.”

Rihanna Trying to Break Up Chris Brown's Romance?

She’s allegedly been in the studio with Breezy.

“She’s trying to break up Chris and his girlfriend, Karrueche,” the source said. “Chris is happy, but Rihanna keeps playing her games to make trouble. It’s become an issue.”

Well, she did show up at the Clippers/Heat game – dateless – the other night so yeah , she could probably use some company all right. But if we had any advice for Chris, it would be DON’T DO IT.
