Steve Jones Talks About Hosting The X Factor USA

We are unsure as to whether or not Steve Jones will be hosting the second season of The X Factor USA, but he talked about what a ride it was for the first season of the talent competition.

When speaking of his job as host of the show, he said, “I was overwhelmed with excitement about doing the job. But I’ll be honest, I’ve been taken aback. It’s been a lot more pressure than I expected, a lot more emotional. I’ve been critiqued to hell and back throughout the press and throughout the entire process of people watching it.”

He revealed, “Maybe I was a little naive; I wasn’t expecting it to be so black-and-white. Half the people hate what I’m doing and half the people love what I’m doing. I suppose that’s kind of what you want. But I wanna be liked by people, so it can be a little bit upsetting when people say hurtful things. If you can’t handle it, go home and hide under your bed.”

He said, “I can’t even expect to see myself on the show just yet. I haven’t had that conversation. Hopefully I’m involved in the second season! I’ve had a whale of a time doing the first season. But I’m sure we’ll look at the first season as a gigantic pilot that’ll become more refined. We’ll know exactly what we want to get across in the second season, we’ll go in there with a clear view of what we need to do.”

What do you think? Should Simon Cowell sign Steve Jones on for the second season of The X Factor USA?

    He sucks and is a creep. I can’t stand his annoying comments and how he pressures the contestants to give a last word, its rediculous.

    I think Steve Jones is a good host.  I do not like that he brings up things that were embarrassing on the show and putting people on the spot but that is TV.  As far as a host, he holds his own.  What I absolutely detested were the judges critics.  They would argue with each other about  their artist and it was totally annoying to the point that I as well as a lot of people I knew stopped watching after the first couple of weeks in Hollywood.  I watched the last couple of weeks to see who would win but hated the way they spoke to each other.  Do they not see how it affects the artist when they do that.  It certainly without doubt do a number on their confidence that could affect them for a long time.

    I watched the show and thought Steve Jones was unsure of what was expected of him.  I think Simon is probably a horrible boss and hard to work with.  Steve got alot more confidence later in the show and I liked that he did his job, even though it upset Paula.  If he let the show run over time it would have been his fault.  I dvr the show and there’s nothing worse than missing the end.  I hated the show because the focus was on the judges not the singers.  American Idol is entertaining, the judges honestly critic the singers and their personalities make the show fun! Watching x factor made me feel upset, the constant fighting between the judges, the nasty remarks to contestants, the over produced backrounds and dance numbers and all the rap and R and B music.  Give me idol please!
