Elle MacPherson will not be returning as host of the horrifically bad fashion competition show Fashion Star because she was horrifically bad at it.

The Tyra Banks wanna-be explains, "I have been involved with Fashion Star from the beginning, and am very proud to see it come to life, not only in America but globally. The show is in great hands, and although I will not be hosting this season, I will still be very involved [and] will be reviewing the format for the upcoming season."

Apparently Nicole Richie, Jessica Simpson and John Varvatos are returning as mentors. Why? I have no idea. The show really sucked.  Like really sucked.
