It has finally been proven! X Factor producers read the articles here at Unreality TV and know that we want rid of Louis Walsh and Kate Thornton.

Today it was announced that both Louis Walsh and super snnoying presenter Kate Thornton have been axed from the show and while Louis Walsh is said to be unperturbed, Kate Thornton is rumoured to be devastated.

‘The news came as a real shock to Louis and Kate,’ a source tells The Sun. ‘Kate was in tears. She loved doing the show and felt she did a good job. But Louis is now fairly philosophical as it was never his be-all-and-end-all.

‘He hardly made any money out of being a judge, he did it for a laugh.’

“After three incredible years, I have decided to leave The X Factor to completely focus on my day job,’ Louis said. ‘I also look forward to managing the stars from this year’s series.”

Kate said: ‘Presenting The X Factor has been fantastic. I’m looking forward to getting stuck in to some new programmes with ITV.’

Months ago we suggested that Simon got rid of Kate, we even came up with a list of possible replacements on our forum! Be sure to pop over and add your own.
