“The interesting thing is everybody thinks X Factor was canceled, that wasn’t the case. What happened was that after three years I said, ‘I can’t do this any more’ – it was just too many shows.”
He adds, “Fox offered us another season, but I couldn’t do it, so that’s why we stopped the production, because I couldn’t do it anymore. Even though the numbers weren’t as good as we hoped, in today’s climate, they were brilliant figures, we just didn’t realize it at the time!”
