You may rember we told you back in January, that Kelly Rowland has decided to leaveThe X Factor UK and we are still trying to come to terms with it!
But now an official statement from the show was just released this weekend, reconfirming the news and denying reports that Kelly has changed her mind. The statement reads:
“Kelly’s immense experience in the music industry shone through in both her judging and mentoring on The X Factor and we would like to thank her for being a part of the country’s number one show and wish her well for the future.”
They also said that the judges will be announced very soon but we alredy know that Gary Barlow has already confirmed to return.
It looks like Kelly is looking to focus more on her solo singing career — the songbird tweeted last night that she is heading to the studio today with super-producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins!
Kelly said on Twitter that a possible collaboration with none other than Missy Elliott and her song Need A Reason is currently featured in the blockbuster flick, Think Like A Man!
This is something really good to look forward too!!
