Fox Boss On Britney Spears X Factor USA Return

Britney Spears' future onThe X Factor USA is still up in the air, according to the boss of broadcaster Fox.

Fox president Kevin Reilly addressed Britters' future on the show when he spoke at a presentation by the network yesterday.

According to E! Online, he responded to a question about whether the pop princess would return to the panel by saying: "For next year, I don't know."

But he said he was keen to see her return personally - although he stressed that show boss Simon Cowell "hasn't talked about any of this going forward".

Commenting on her performance on the show in 2012, Reilly said: "I actually thought it went very, very well. It was fraught with unknowns. I think Britney did a really good job.

"She came on, people remain fascinated by her and always will be. People got to know her a little bit, maybe some people were waiting for more drastic displays of some nature that never came… She tucked in really nicely on that bench."

Tate Stevens won the 2012 season of the talent show.
