Could Khloé Kardashian Odom no longer have The X Factor?

While the New York Post is reporting the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star has not been asked back to her co-hosting gig on the Fox talent competition, a source tell E! News the report isn't true.

"There have been no decisions made for the new season yet," the source adds.

Kardashian Odom was a hosting novice when Simon Cowell hand-picked the E! star to co-host X's second season with Mario Lopez. While she admitted to battling nerves early on, she said support from her famous family helped her to steadily improve.

"My sisters have already texted me tips, which I love," she told us after wrapping her first week of live shows. "My sister Kim was like, 'You did amazing, but don't yell [into the microphone] so much.' I love constructive criticism. I've never done this before, and I think I can only get better hopefully."

The X Factor has already seen two key departures since crowning country crooner Tate Stevens its second-season champ. Last month, Britney Spears announced she was leaving her $15-million-a-season judging gig, while fellow judge L.A. Reid, who'd been with the show since its 2011 premiere, revealed his departure in December.

Fox had no comment on the Post's Kardashian Odom report.
