Louis Walsh confirms he will quit The X Factor in 2014

Louis Walsh has confirmed he will quit The X Factor after this series.
The TV talent show star is stepping down from the ITV programme after a decade on the judging panel.
He told TV Times magazine he is looking forward to returning to his day job of managing musicians.
"I'm happy this is going to be my last year," said Louis, who has mentored acts including JLS and Jedward. "I've been judging X Factor for 10 years so I've done it all."
A spokesperson for The X Factor said: "We're delighted Louis is back for a recordbreaking 10th series this year.
"It's far too early to say what the judging panel for 2014 may or may not look like."
Louis won series two of the competition with Shayne Ward, who he subsequently managed.
Simon Cowell briefly replaced him with Brian Friedman in 2007, before returning Louis to the judging panel after a few days.
In the magazine interview he also revealed some of his plans for the future.
"I'm going to be managing Shane Filan from Westlife and I'm putting together a new boy band."

Louis is famous for managing a number of successful boybands including Westlife and Boyzone.
He has also worked with Girls Aloud, Union J and G4, who all found fame after appearing on television talent shows.
It is still not certain what will happen to The X Factor after the upcoming series ends later this year.
Originally a ten-year deal was signed with ITV, which will now come to an end. Simon Cowell is thought to be negotiating more series for future years.
Sharon Osborne is back the judging panel in 2013. She last appeared on the show in 2007.
She will join Louis, as well as Gary Barlow and Nicole Scherzinger, although she has said she only intends to stay for one series.

For example, take Tulisa Constavalos. Her background performing hip-hop in the gentrified streets of Camden from the age of 13 is obviously very inspiring for someone like Ella Henderson, but when it came to taking her own advice, Tulisa put out the kind of record that had people saying, well, nothing, because nobody bloody bought it. Who wants advice from a musician who can't make a good album themselves?
So step in Simon Cowell. Though he's busy with the US version of the show, it's about to enter its third year, and can probably manage without him. Plus, this time next year, Si-Co will be a new dad! And kids are expensive. So unless he wants to be the face of Just For Men or Marks & Spencer's High Waisted Stonewash Jeans he could get a bit of extra cash by re-joining the panel.
After all, he returned to save Britain's Got Talent after the instantly regrettable decision to have Michael McIntyre and The Hoff judging in 2011, and since then the show has gone from strength to strength, with 10.43M viewers tuning in to this year's final in April.
The bottom line is, X Factor is on a downward spiral. They're churning out loads of half-baked acts that aren't being as brilliant as they could be, and unless Simon comes back, the pattern is only set to get worse. What would he have thought of Kitty Brucknell draping herself in Christmas lights and dancing enthusiastically near a swimming pool? And when Alexandra Burke made TV History in 2011 by dropping the phrase 'OK.Com' you could almost picture Simon retaliating by casually lighting a cigar with Burko's old recording contract.
The X Factor barely made sense without Simon Cowell, but at least Louis Walsh helped, with the lack of continuity in his grey-then-butterscotch hair and his 'magician on a cruise ship' bow ties. Now he's gone, it's time Mr Nasty came back and made X Factor popular again.
