“I don’t know.

Dannii reignited the feud recently, when she described Mrs O as a bully in her new autobiography. The comments prompted Sharon’s daughter Kelly to launch a foul mouthed Twitter attack on the Australian star, during which she branded her ‘the devil.’

X Factor: Dannii Minogue Snubs Louis Walsh’s Christmas Present

Dannii MinogueDannii Minogue has ended up in Louis Walsh’s bad books yet again, after she snubbed his generous Christmas present.

An X Factor source told The Mirror: “Louis went to great lengths buying presents for his fellow judges. When he knocked on Dannii’s dressing room door, she barely opened it, stuck her arm out, took the present and shut the door again. Louis was staggered.”

Maybe he should have been nicer to her throughout the show and she might have had a bit more time for him!

X Factor: Simon Cowell Protects Dannii Minogue!

Dannii MinogueI was shocked and surprised last night, when Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne failed to taunt Dannii Minogue about her failing pop career and single flop that was released this week.

However, it all became clear when I read an article in the Sun claiming that Simon Cowell had threatened to cut power to the pairs microphones if they continued to bully Minogue.

A show source told the newspaper: “All week Sharon and Louis have been whispering about how to slip little comments in.”

The insider added: “They’ve been told their mics will be cut if they make a single comment about her pop career.”

X Factor: Dannii Minogue Upset By Judges Arguments

Dannii Minogue

Dannii Minogue has revealed that she has been very upset by the arguments and cattiness that have prevailed amongst the X Factor judges this year.

“It’s tough being the new girl,” Dannii told The Sun. “The hardest thing is, I really admire them. I’ve looked up to them for years and I wanted to be part of that gang. But when they’re slating you, you think, ‘Please don’t, I really like you.’

“I’ve certainly had to toughen up. I’ve had my ups and downs with Sharon and expected that. And Louis, who’s had a rough year after being kicked off the show then coming back, is thinking, ‘Who is this young chick? What does she know?’ Read more & comment »

X Factor: Rhydian Could Go Head To Head With Dannii Minogue!

Dannii Minogue

Rhydian Roberts has spoken out about the possibility of going head to head with his X afctor mentor in the album charts.

If the opera singer wins the show, he will be releasing an album next year, Dannii has also announced her intention to release an album in 2008.

Rhydian told the Daily Star:

“It would be weird going against her and pretty embarrassing if I finished above her!”

Considering how badly Dannii’s recent single is performing, I don’t think that Rhydian has much to worry about. It is weird though that she has had as much exposure as any of the X Factor contestants, yet while the winner of this show will most likely go on to at least one number one single and album, Dannii can’t even make it into the top 40.

X Factor: Dannii Minogue Is In For It On Saturday!

Dannii MinogueIf Louis Walsh managed to reduce Dannii Minogue to tears on last week’s X Factor show, by jibing her about her lack of singing talents, just imagine how much worse he will be this week.

Once Louis gets wind of the news that Dannii’s most recent single, ‘Touch Me Like That’ which was released this week has sold just 1500 copies and will most likely not make it into the top 40, he is bound to step up the campaign against the Aussie pop singer.

Let’s just hope that :

1) She’s hard enough to take the slagging

and

2) She learns her lesson and never again releases another piece of music to the masses.
