While it was quite the accomplishment for the Kardashian family when Khloe made the leap from reality starlet to TV personality, the respective achievement has now turned out to be short lived, as it's being reported that the 28-year-old has been axed from her gig on the X Factor.

According to sources of the Daily Mail, Khloe was fired due to her lack of appeal with the show's audience while fellow host Mario Lopez will more than certainly be back.

"They are asking Mario [Lopez] to come back, but not Khloe,"an insider told New York Post.

Although Kardashian was widely popular with her fan base from the Keeping Up With The Kardashians reality program, she started her talent show gig with no hosting experience. Daily Mail states that her lack of training showed, as she periodically seemed nervous and uncertain of how to react in front of the cameras.

With segments of the show unable to be re-recorded, the live show format was difficult for the newbie host. However, Khloe herself did admit that the hosting gig didn't come naturally from the start.

"Just learning how there's a screaming audience and you don't yell because the mic is right there. I will have an earpiece in my ear and while I'm trying to read the teleprompter then I have someone counting down and they're like, 'Okay ask Simon this or that.' There were just so many pieces I never knew were involved in live TV."

"I do feel like though every show I got better and better, but my first week I literally was like, 'I am going to die. I want to fake a heart attack.'"

A spokesperson for the X Factor refused to confirm the report, saying that "the producers have not yet made the talent decisions for this year."
