X-ED OUT! #TheXFactor CANCELLED by #Fox after 3 seasons! [details]

Posted: 07 Feb 2014 06:06 PM PST



Is ANYBODY SURPRISED?  The U.S. version of 'The X-Factor' has been CANCELLED after only 3 seasons!  It looks like Demi Lovato jumped off that sinking ship just in time.  I am not surprised, after the 1st season, they lost me.  The revolving door of judges and the winners not even making a SPLASH on any US charts put the writing on the wall.  On the same network as FOX, it seems we were just COMPETITION SHOW to DEATH.  As soon as 'Idol' wraps a 'flashier' version' of the same show comes on.  It was OVERKILL.

TODAY is the day the MUSIC STOPPED!

The X Factor has officially been canceled.
Simon Cowell is set to return to the U.K. version of the reality singing competition after Fox decided not to renew its U.S. counterpart for a fourth season, the network announced on Friday, along with Syco and FremantleMedia North America.

"I've had a fantastic time over the last 12 years, both on The X Factor and American Idol. And apart from being lucky enough to find some amazing talent on the shows, I have always had an incredible welcome from the American public (most of the time!)," Cowell, who served as a judge and producer, said in a statement. "Last year, for a number of reasons, I had to make a decision to return to the U.K. version of The X Factor in 2014. So for now, I'm back to the U.K. and I want to thank Fox for being an incredible partner and I also want to thank everybody who has supported my shows. America, I'll see you soon!"

SO the word from the curb is that the cancellation is due to Simon wanting to return to the U.K version of the show. Hmm, we're not convinced.

At the 20114 Winter TCA Press Tour, Reilly talked about the series' uncertain future, admitting that The X Factor was "underperforming this year, Simon I think would admit that…the ratings were not what we hoped."

It's ALWAYS about the RATINGS! If a BIG BUDGET show such as 'The X-Factor' does not have everyone talking the next day, and SOCIAL MEDIA BUZZING all week, then it's UNDERPERFORMING to say the very least. I love Kelly Rowland but even with her on the show, I was not convinced to tune in weekly.
The X Factor's season three finale, which saw Alex & Sierra taking home the grand prize, attracted just 6.2 million viewers and a 1.7 rating in the all-important adults 18-49 demo, which was down over 35 percent from the season two closer.  I am sure 'American Idol' is next!

#Sex #Party and the #Olympics! What REALLY goes down at the #OlympicVillage in #Sochi!!

Posted: 07 Feb 2014 02:46 PM PST




SEX, PARTY and SPORTS!? Yes they seem to go hand in hand. When you put a host of HARD BODIES, adrenaline and alchohol in one setting there is BOUND to be LOADS of SEX going on! I MEAN when you are not preparing for your event and when you are in close quarters what else is there to do? At OLYMPICS PAST there have been MANY of TALE of a whole lot of SEX and PARTYING, and SOCHI, even with the reported terrible living arrangements its shaping up to go down in history as well... and not just for the electryfying feats on the ice and slopes


It seems that officials at the Olympic Village in Sochi, Russia, are expecting their residents to be getting busy in more ways than one in the coming days.

According to TMZ, Olympic officials are distributing a whopping 100,000 condoms to athletes in the Village, which houses the competitors during the Games. An International Olympic Committee rep told the news outlet that the "distribution of condoms … is part of the IOC's involvement in HIV and AIDS prevention."

About 2,800 athletes are expected in Sochi for the upcoming Winter Games. If the condoms were divided among the athletes alone (and not members of their training staff or Olympic officials), each person would get roughly 35 condoms, to be used over a period of about 16 days.

This isn't the first time that the raunchy side of the Olympics has made headlines. Last year, an illuminating ESPN report described the Olympic Village as one big sex fest, where athletes party hard and have lots of intercourse once their events are complete.

Two-time Olympic gold medalist and American soccer star Hope Solo told Sam Alipour, the report's author, that she estimates "70 percent to 75 percent of Olympians" are having sex in the Village in their free time.

"There's a lot of sex going on," she quipped.

In his report, Alipour revealed that there's so much sex in the air at the Games that a pile of at least 100,000 condoms has become the norm at the Olympic Village. He said that's been true since the 2000 Sydney Games, when officials reportedly had to put in an order for 20,000 extra rubbers after an initial stock of 70,000 ran out.

In 2012, organizers of the London Olympics reportedly provided 150,000 free condoms for the 10,800 athletes at the Games. It was said at the time that the huge condom stash was an Olympic record.


LET the SEX Games BEGIN!!!!
