Kris Jenner: Khloe Kardashian was too busy for ‘X Factor’

Fox announced that “The X Factor” would no longer be keeping up with Khloe Kardashian, and while the reason for the ouster remains unclear, momager Kris Jenner explained that her daughter was simply too busy to fit co-hosting a high-profile singing competition into her schedule.

“Khloe had such a good time and she wasn’t sure if she was going to come back or not, so I think that with everything going on and the other three shows she’s working on, it just worked out for the best,” she explained to E! News during an event hosted by the television network.

“Everything happens for a reason, but she was in love with her experience and had such a good time.”

The reality star came to “The X Factor” with no TV hosting experience and often appeared nervous and unprepared on camera. But Ryan Seacrest, who attended the same event as Jenner, told E! he was impressed by Kardashian.

“She did a great job. That’s tough if you’ve never done it before,” the veteran “American Idol” host said.

He added, “She’s not trained at it, she kind of went out there, and her first gig was a live national show. She’s got plenty to do and I think she’ll be just fine, and I think she’d say, ‘what a great experience and I’m glad that I had the opportunity to do it.'”
