Half of the X-Factor team just got the boot! According to insiders, the judges Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul and the show host, Steve Jones, all were fired. "They survived this year, but it didn’t really work. So they’ve figured they have an opportunity to fix it," the insider says. "They expected Paula to be the goofy girl, and Nicole to be the pretty one. But Paula was so bad that it made none of it work." Ouch, too bad, guys! But why not just step over to the more successful show, The Voice? Ha! (thewrap)
