The host of the first season of the United States X Factor has confirmed that he won’t be returning for season two.

Jones took to his Twitter to announce the news:

I wont be hosting next seasons XFactor which is a shame but I cant complain as I’ve had a great time. Good luck to everyone on the show.

Based on his wording, it seems to us like it wasn’t his decision to depart.

We personally weren’t fans of Jones’ hosting abilities. They were messy at best and made us appreciate the smooth moves of Ryan Seacrest over on Idol.

Now the question is, who will host X Factor season two? We’re sure rumors will begin flying soon!
