Former X Factor semi finalist Ben Mills has given a very revealing interview to The Times today, in which he talks about the amount of staging and faking he experience during the 2006 series of the show.
Ben described his time on the ITV talent show as:
“completely surreal. Sharon [Osbourne, then a judge] wanted me to stage a walkout one week to generate a huge tabloid story and get me votes. When I refused, she didn’t speak to me again.”
Former X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne has tried to hit Simon Cowell where it hurts and signed up for his rival UK show, Strictly Come Dancing.
A friend of Sharon’s told the Daily Mirror that she had definitely signed for the BBC show which airs on the same night as Cowell’s X Factor and she is rumoured to have commanded £100,000 for her appearance.
A BBC source told the newspaper: “Sharon is already a huge name in TV and music, so she is perfect for the show.
Sixteen American TV channels have refused to air The Osbourne’s latest reality TV show with a leading TV critics calling the effort ‘pathetic!’
Earlier this week we reported that one channel in Panama, Florida refused to air the show after American Idol describing it as ‘unsuitable and contrary to the public interest’.
However now fifteen other channels have followed suit and failed to place the 35 minute long show. The Washington Post’s style columnist Tom Shales wrote that the show ‘could make history – as the first TV show ever to be recalled for fear of poisoning the atmosphere.’
Rock Of Love ’star’ Megan Hauserman has reportedly sued Sharon Osbourne over an alleged attack.
In the video above bikini-clad Hauserman, 27, claimed Sharon was only famous “for managing a brain-dead rock star”. Sharon saw red and threw a glass of water over Megan, next thing you know a fight breaks out and security are left to separate the women.
Sharon Osbourne is appearing on Piers Morgan Life Stories tonight and one of the biggest revelations was when she bluntly declared that she had left the X Factor because of Dannii Minogue.
Osbourne eft the ITV1 show in June 2008 after four series, she explained her departure saying:

“I didn’t enjoy working with her at all and the prospect of spending six months sitting next to her, I thought ‘my life is better than that’.”
Former X Factor judge, Sharon Osbourne has revealed that she spent £25,000 on plastic surgery to her face.
Sharon told Piers Morgan on his ITV show Piers Morgan On Hollywood:
“It’s worth paying more for a face lift if you don’t want to look like an alien that’s just been beamed down from space.
“My teeth alone cost seven grand, but they’re good because they don’t look too white. The whole head cost 25 grand.
“I’ve had the t***ies done twice. Ozzy likes them but I don’t.
Former newspaper editor Piers Morgan has revealed that Sharon Osbourne once tried to strangle him.
The incident occurred when Osbourne found out that she would be joined on the America’s Got Talent panel by Morgan, and responded by throwing a fit and launching herself at him.
“Sharon Osbourne went mental when I met her. She started screaming at me in a restaurant in Hollywood, then tried to strangle me,” Morgan told Nuts magazine.
Former X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne, has said that she would love to appear on this years series of Strictly Come Dancing on BBC One.

Sharon revealed that another big dream is to appear in a proper British panto.
The onslaught of people dissing X Factor judge, Dannii Minogue just never seems to stop.
Last week Louis was calling her a thief to anyone who would listen, even reducing her to tears on Saturdays show and now ex judge Sharon Osbourne has started up her hate Dannii campaign again.
In an interview with The Sun Sharon blasted Dannii for her tears on last weeks X factor saying that she was trying to manipulate the public and that Louis Walsh is now devastated that people perceive him as a bully.
She says: “Louis is genuinely upset because he doesn’t want people to think he is a bully.
X Factor judge, Louis Walsh has told The Daily Star that his pal Sharon Osbourne wil be returning to the show next year, and that Aussie judge Dannii Mingogue will be forced to leave.
Louis told the newspaper that he had no doubts about Sharon’s return, adding: “Obviously Dannii would be the one to go – having Sharon and Cheryl on the show together is too good an opportunity to miss”.
He contined: “The thing about Sharon is she can’t be controlled. At the moment Simon has three judges who, let’s face it, he controls. With Sharon we never knew what she was going to do next – she was just so unpredictable. I really miss her but we speak on the phone at least twice a week.” Read more & comment »
Jack Osbourne has revealed that he believes his mu has the real ‘X Factor’ and that the ITV talent show has suffered since she left earlier this year.

Piers Morgan has revealed that he has a less than tranquil relationship with his two fellow America’s Got Talent judges.
He told Access Hollywood: “There’s a lot of tension backstage between Sharon and I.
“It’s a creative friendship. We’re great friends but we’re great friends in a sort of Don Corleone and Michael Corleone (The Godfather) sense.
“And don’t even get me started with David Hasselhoff and I. That’s a clash with the planet of the egos.”
Former X Factor judge, Sharon Osbourne, is rumoured to be writing a fictional book based on her time on the show.
In a book deal rumoured to be worth £3 million, Sharon is set to pen a chick lit book loosely based on her time on reality TV shows.
“Sharon was approached in the spring to publish a work of fiction, loosely based on her dealings with reality TV contests,” a source told The Mirror.
“She wants it to be a Jackie Collins-inspired romp, something shocking, saucy and witty – and a chick lit hit.”
Sharon Osbourne dramatically left the X Factor judging panel earlier this year amid claims of unrealistic pay demands, but sources say that the loud mouthed mum is already regretting her decision.
A friend of Sharon’s told Star magazine: “It has hit her hard. She has been in bits. She thought she was going to be inundated with other offers but it hasn’t happened. It’s especially hard on her as her replacement Cheryl is so young and popular. Sharon’s starting to feel like she might be past it.
Another source added: “There were rumours of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ and all sorts, but nothing that great has actually been offered to Sharon. It’s not often she admits she is wrong, but she’s worried she has misjudged her popularity.”
If this is true I think it’s a real shame, as in her heyday Sharon was a great X Factor judge. Read more & comment »
Here we go again! Another X Factor, another bitchfest! Thoguh surprisingly this time the war of words has been started by Aussie judge, Dannii Minogue.

A source adds: ‘Dannii is now the show’s senior woman and feels like she won the war.’
Danni claims she is trying to make a big effort with Sharon’s replacement, Cheryl Cole. Read more & comment »
