Nicole Scherzinger Not Returning To 'X Factor'?

Nicole Scherzinger may not be returning for the second season of the X Factor, E! reports.

“She wants to focus on her music career,” a source said about the 33-year-old entertainer “She’s spoken to Simon [Cowell] and he’s given her his blessing.”

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

Earlier in the day, it was announced that the season one X Factor host Steve Jones would also not be returning for a second season.
