Cotton quits X Factor for US career

Television presenter Fearne Cotton has reportedly quit 'The X Factor' after landing a deal for a new talent show in the US.
The 25-year-old star, who has hosted just one series of the spin-off show 'The Xtra Factor', is now planning to move to the US to pursue her television career there.
A source told The Sun: "Fearne had fun working on 'X Factor' but she decided to quit while she was ahead."
"There was no guarantee she would have been doing a second series. It made sense to make a clean break and concentrate on America."
Cotton has signed up to co-host the US talent show 'Last Comic Standing' on NBC.
