In the least surprising development in the history of civilization, Steve Jones and Nicole Shitzinger have been fired from X Factor. Poor Steve had never done anything like this in his life and was so awful VFTW actually began liking him! And Nicole proved that someone with the mental makeup of a six-year-old girl wasn't a good choice as a judge.

Breaking News: Paula Abdul's fired too!

Meanwhile, chalk up another failure for Simon Cowell. Or should I say three!

While VFTW won't miss Nicole, we will miss Steve. Read on to re-visit some of his greatest moments...

Looks like X Factor was such a flop, there's no post-show tour for the contestants. While we're sure some of the contestants are happy about that, it also means the contestants are missing out on the $100,000 payday the American Idol contestants get post-show. Josh Krajcik says he's happy there's no tour because he wants to get started on his career. Oh, poor, delusional Josh.

Melanie Amaro wins X Factor. Now it's time for a massive diet.

Josh Krajcik finishes second. Back to the burito stand.

Chris Rene finishes third. A major disappointment like this is enough to make one relapse.

Final shows like tonight's are way too boring to blog about as all that remains are just boring generic contestants who've gotten this far because of tards and fraus so instead let's take a look back at the most VFTW moments on this season's show. When we first heard X Factor was coming to America we were very hopeful as The UK version of the show is so VFTW-friendly but things got off to a horrible start due to a repulsive amount of over-hype that turned off a lot of people before the show even got started. And things didn't get much better from there as this show had little of the VFTW magic the UK version does and we landed up with basically the exact same final we'd see on American Idol. But in all this dullness there were a few brave souls who let their Worster Flags fly by having meltdowns in front of the entire nation, going on mad rants about Jesus and refusing to sing so let's look back at the most VFTW moments of the past season...
