Nicole was easily the most scandalous judge this season — and now she’s hinting that she may not return to the show!

Nicole Scherzinger drew heavily criticism for her judging this season on The X Factor, and now she’s revealing that the show is no longer the first priority in her life!

Nicole, 33, says her focus is shifting with the new year, RadarOnline.com reports.

“Next year for me, it’s about my music,” she said. “This has been quite a learning experience, quite a journey for me. I didn’t expect to have been so emotional through the whole elimination process. I wanted to just mentor and empower artists.”

What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers — would you be sad to see Nicole go if she left The X Factor?
