The Daily Star is reporting that the X Factor may be getting axed to make way for a new tv show soon , but will they actually go ahead with it ?
Yeah! thats right the X Factor UK , the show which has been captivating Great Britain and Ireland now for almost a decade and produced stars like Leona Lewis , Cher Llyod and Shayne Ward along with boy band One Direction and JLS may have reached the end of that cliff where all reality tv shows find themselves some day (sadly no one knows what happens to its stars afterwards) .
An insider claims that ITV is openly looking for a new show which can rival The Voice and replace X Factor to show on weekend nights . Its been known Simon Cowell has thought of ditching the show after poor ratings last year saw it lose its top spot . Simon cited that it "Lacked Spark" .
Elaine Bedell the ITV entertainment boss admitted the channel were "hungry for a big prime time weekend event show" but admitted they werent easy to discover.
"The ideas need to have the production value of The X Factor, Britain's Got Talent and I'm A Celebrity and they need a major piece of talent. We get very few pitches for big event shows. They're risky to commission."
Although ITV seem hesitant to axe the X Factor just yet its hard to picture them being able to keep another reality show going without X Factor being cancelled . Well for now the rumours seem to point out we are still going to have a season this year ,so yes, get ready for another super exciting X Factor season , oh and dont forget ITV , people will always have the X FACTOFR !
What do you guys think should ITV keep the X Factor or is it getting too old for modern Telivison ?

I NEVER actually watched The X Factor here in the U.S. and I haven't watched American Idol in over three years. American Idol is played out. I now watch The Voice, which is much better. :) #TeamTheVoice
