Paula Abdul has joined the exodus at The X Factor USA, with Fox announcing the veteran judge will not be returning.
The news comes just hours after Steve Jones and Nicole Scherzinger were confirmed to be leaving the show.
Mike Darnell, President of Alternative Entertainment for Fox Broadcasting, said: "We love Paula. She is a remarkable talent and we appreciate all of her contributions. We're lucky that she is a part of the FOX family, and we look forward to working with her again soon."
