'X Factor' bosses have denied reports that Louis Walsh is set to leave the judging panel after the current series of the reality show.
Walsh reportedly told the News of the World that the show took up too much of his time and that he wanted to leave to concentrate on managing his bands.
He was quoted as saying: "I will do one more series. I have really enjoyed doing it but I'm not a TV star, I'm a band manager."
However, the judge's comments were later dismissed in a statement posted on the show's official website.
The statement said: "Despite rumours that Louis will not renew his contract for series five, we've been told to let you know that as far as the show is concerned, there is 'no truth at all in these rumours'."
