‘The X Factor’ UK: Is Olly Murs being replaced by Rylan Clark?
Speaking to the Daily Star, here is what a source had to say about Olly’s potential exit:
“Olly loves being on the show but there’s no way he can do it next year if he wants to crack America. He had to cut short supporting One Direction on tour this summer and he doesn’t want to do that again next year.
“He doesn’t have to decide yet but he’s made it clear he’s 90 per cent certain he won’t be back.”
If Olly does go, it will be a huge loss as his chemistry with Caroline Flack is hilarious and totally makes “The Xtra Factor” at times even more entertaining than “The X Factor” itself. However, the good news is that there may already be a worthy replacement lined up in Rylan Clark, who sources believe has a much better future as a TV presenter and entertainer than he does as a singer.
Rylan, like Olly, has a busy 2013 planned, as well. However, he is at the moment rumored to be a part of “Celebrity Big Brother” rather than embarking on any sort of international promotional tour.
