The X Factor creator Simon Cowell has decided to rest the popular television competition show after a sixteen-year run. 

Despite being contracted for additional seasons, The X Factor will not return this year in the UK in order to reinvigorate to format. 

“Simon is planning to rest The X Factor this year. He and the producers want to take a breath to really think through the show and how to reinvigorate it for the future. And they don’t believe they can do that if they go straight into another cycle of the show this year.”

Another insider added: “Although The X Factor is contracted for one more series, ITV totally understand the rationale behind the idea of resting it this year and want to give Simon and the team the time to do what they feel is right,” another insider said. 

“Plans for this autumn are still being finalized and will be announced in due course. We are currently filming Britain’s Got Talent 2020,” a spokesman for the show added.

The decision to rest The X Factor was first reported by The Sun.

After being rushed to the hospital last week, X Factor‘s Simon Cowell missed the weekend’s live shows of the show and it was confirmed he will return to live shows this weekend.

The judge fell down the stairs in his London mansion and suffered a concussion. After the fall, he was taking some time to recover. A source close to Cowell told ET that he “was going down his stairs to get some hot milk because he was not feeling well and was dizzy. As he was going back up the stairs, he fainted and fell backwards.”

Fellow X Factor UK judge Sharon Osbourne shared an update on Cowell’s health on Wednesday’s episode of The Talk revealing that he is “doing much better [and] going to be OK” after his hospitalization.

In an interview with The Sun on Tuesday Cowell spoke of his scary ordeal.

“I know I was very lucky I didn’t hurt myself seriously. It could have been a lot worse. Sometimes we get a reminder that we’re not invincible, and this was certainly mine. It was a huge shock.”

Simon, who shares a 3-year-old son Eric with partner Lauren Silverman, also spoke of needing to take care of himself.

“They think I fainted because I had low blood pressure. So, I have got to really take good care of myself to sort that out. After all, I am a dad and have more responsibility than ever.”

Darci Lynne Farmer has become one of America’s Got Talent’s fan favorite throughout this season with her remarkable ventriloquism, comedic skills, and excellent singing voice that let her hit the high notes, even with closed mouth.

The self-trained ventriloquist nailed it completely during the first night of AGT finals on Tuesday. Farmer hit the stage together with Petunia the rabbit, the puppet that earned her the Golden buzzer from Mel B, and her other puppet, Oscar the mouse, who serenaded the former Spice Girls star later in the season.

The 12-year-old contestant started with a funny three way conversation, masterfully switching back between Oscar, Petunia and her own voice and by the last part, the puppets sang a duet to Beatles’ “With A Little Help From My Friends,” and she sang both their parts without even moving her mouth! Her mind-blowing performance earned her a standing ovation from the judges.

“You are just hands down incredible. You’re self taught, you were so shy and look at you now,” Mel B gushed. “When I gave you my golden buzzer I knew you could win this. You’re so poised and I still don’t know how you do it. I don’t see your mouth moving. Amazing!”

Heidi Klum added, “You have that special something. You might have just won yourself a million dollars.”

“The best part of doing this job is when you are there and you can say, ‘I was there at the beginning of someone’s career and I witnessed a star,'” Simon Cowell said. “Tonight, again, I’ve just witnessed a star emerge, because that’s what you are. You’re special, incredible, funny, talented and I think you’re going to win.”

Howie Mandel concluded, “You’re the most popular person on this show. You remind me of every reason I got into this business.”

Tune in to America’s Got Talent finals results show on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.
