L.A. Reid is leaving X-Factor USA next year, after being one of the show judges for the first two seasons. Reid, 56, who is currently the Chairman and CEO of Epic Records, said he will not be returing to the show on its Season 3, with auditions being expected to start in March 2013.
"I have decided that I will not return to ‘The X Factor’ next year. I have to go back and I have a company to run that I’ve kind of neglected and it saddens me a little bit, but only a little bit." L.A. Reid tells Shaun Robinson of Access Hollywood in an exclusive interview this Thursday, December 13, 2012.
