There is already a reported shake up at Simon Cowell's X-Factor talent show that may see the show's return in the fall without co-judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger. This after Abdul finished the first season with no talent under her guidance and Scherzinger being blamed for the elimination of Rachel Crow who broke down in front of America.
Abdul had a tough time mentoring the groups, becoming the first judge without contestants on season 1. And Scherzinger faced serious backlash after Crow's elimination. With the women off the judges' panel, record producer L.A. Reid and Simon Cowell, who is also the executive producer of the talent competition, are the only familiar faces that remain.[People]
