Piers Morgan announced on Tuesday night, “I’m leaving ‘America’s Got Talent.’ I’ve been a judge since the show began six years ago. I’ve loved every single second, but discovered juggling, to my surprise, really is a bit more difficult that I thought.”

Morgan, who took over for Larry King, said he’s going to focus on the upcoming election and his duties at CNN.

He also thanked “America’s Got Talent” show creator, Simon Cowell.

Morgan then cracked “I want to congratulate Sharon [Osbourne], Howie [Mandel], and Nick [Cannon], who will doubtless be very relieved to learn that they no longer have to work with me.”
