On Thursday, the show’s first finale went on without recently ousted Republic Records executive, Charlie Walk, who was fired from the show after allegations of sexual assault surfaced last week. He was also suspended from his post at the record label.
“‘The Four’ is truly a next-generation show. It has pushed past the boundaries of traditional music competition series by focusing on recording artists in an epic battle to become a superstar,” Fox president of alternative series and specials, Rob Wade said in a statement.
“And for the winner, guided by music giants Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, DJ Kahled, Meghan Trainor and Republic Records, this is just the beginning. We’d like to thank our panel, our ringleader, Fergie, the contestants and our incredible production team for delivering concert-quality shows every week. And we look forward to pushing the boundaries even further in season two.”
