I have a feeling something went on with Shane and her backstage? Some sort of fling? Maybe I'm rewriting history here, but I'm sure I can remember something like that happening.

FACTS
She had a poo on Simon's head as a joke, but he didn't find it funny. Also she slept with Ozzy Osbourne |

I think basically after 3 years of the show, Simon wanted a shakeup with new judges & presenter. Remember Louis went briefly too.
Everyone was surprised because it was the first big shakeup, years later and obviously we're used to it now. |

I thought Kate and Simon had an argument and he sacked her over of it?
She was much better than Dermot, they should've brought her back instead of Sharon. |

There was no argument, everyone including Kate thought she was coming back. But then they had a meeting to review series 3 and plan series 4 where Simon was keen to make big changes to push the show forward. He liked Ryan Seacrest in the US and hoped to turn Dermot into a British version of him. So Kate was fired, much to everyones surprise, including hers.

She was /is a great presenter,and it's sad that I don't think her career has really recovered. She was sacked from loose women too where I think she was a real breath of fresh air

Dermot's miles better anyway, she was far too serious and very dull
He has actually grown into the role over the years, he's like 'Mr X Factor' now (a bit like how Davina became Big Brother), if he left I'd be very disappointed |

Still, it works better with Dermot. At least he has the nerve to dance on stage

Em, she was wooden and not very good for a Saturday Night live show. She was much better in the Pop Idol ITV2 show, I forget the name of it.
Dermot is far more confident and dynamic, though not as funny as Ant and Dec |
