Kris Jenner has been up to her usual tricks and this time it might have actually caused Khloe to lose her spot as co-host on The X Factor. News recently hit that Khloe would not be returning to the show for the upcoming season but that Mario Lopez would continue to hold on to his job. Although those behind the show didn’t mention the reason why, it appears it might have been because Kris, Khloe’s momager, was pushing for them to replace Mario with either Kourtney or Kim instead and they didn’t like it. An insider commented:
“Everyone thinks that Mario hated working with Khloe. But he was nothing but encouraging and supportive (to Khloe). It was her mother Kris who was the problem.”
The source says Kris created problems on set by confronting Mario when he was trying to help Khloe become a better host and she pushed those behind the show to replace him:
“Kris would go to the producers and say Mario was being pushy and insensitive and she’d often confront Mario directly. There was even a very absurd incident when Kris suggested to the producers that they should dump Mario and replace him with one of her other daughters. Kris claimed that the chemistry between Mario and Khloe just didn’t work and that Kim or Kourtney would be a better fit. Well, the producers agreed with the no chemistry argument, but also that Khloe was in over her head – and that’s why she’s gone.”
It turns out that Kris made the whole problem worse which ended in Khloe’s job loss:
“Mario really was trying to help Khloe become a better host. Kris has a problem butting out of her kid’s professional lives. Mario would never tell her Kris, but Khloe should have taken his advice, not her mother’s – look where that got her.”
