Elle Macpherson Isn’t Returning to Host Fashion Star

Elle Macpherson is not returning to host Fashion Star.

The 48-year-old supermodel has confirmed she is departing the show as presenter but will remain on the NBC program as executive producer, and the blonde beauty is "very proud" to have been part of its inaugural series: "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," she told The New York Post.

But Elle is not the only one leaving the program, as co-sponsor H&M have ruled out returning for a second season after insiders revealed the high street store decided the reality show was no longer a good fit.
