X Factor 2008: Simon Cowell Threatens To Sack Judges!
Simon Cowell has threatened to sack warring X factor judges, Sharon Osbourne and Dannii Minogue if they can’t learn to put up with one another on the show.
Last years show was plagued by rumours of a massive feud between the pair, and this year things aren’t looking any more pleasant.
“It’s nearly contract time again. Sharon said she doesn’t want to come back with Dannii - and Dannii said she doesn’t want to work with Sharon,” an insider told The Sun.
“But Simon has banged both their heads together and told them, ‘If you don’t shut up - I can replace you both’. They don’t have to be best friends - but they do have to work together.”
However, the source added: “Bosses know that viewers were hooked on the backstage battles between Sharon and Dannii and they want to keep them both on board - it makes for very interesting TV.”

They are supposed to be professionals and should not let whether you like someone or not affect their work. But after the nasty remarks Sharon made on the Graham Norton show about Danni I think I would probably find it hard to be civil to her. The judges need to remember it is not about them but finding talent.

Well Simon whatever u do don’t sack sharon like see last year Danni was being such a stupit idot cause she was letting terrible singers through and saying no to the good singers. The show wouldn’t be the same without sharon but we can all live without Danni. Ditch Danni and get someone with a bit of class I like Randy who judges with you in American Idol it would be good if he judged in the xfactor he’s so dead on. I thinik all of yous would get on. Everything was ok between yous until Danni came to the show-FACT. I know u and lou lou argue a lot but u’s luv it proving eachother wrong danni’s just annoying.

Simon cannot sack Dannii. She was without a doubt the best judge this year. Sharon atill did rubbish even though she had a good category! But non of them should be sacked because the x factor just wouldn’t work without them both. Simon won’t sack sharon because she was their originally and he won’t sack dannii because she is great at the job. Plus he fancies the pants of her lol.

I agree with Becky Dannii is the best judge going she brings a bit of class in to it.She has tons of experince and has made some incerdiable albums she can model act and sing but yeah the show wouldnt be the same without either of them.I prefer Dannii any day cause even dough her career wasent the way it planned at least she tried Sharons only known for last name if you want my oppin

[...] “Dannii really wanted to go along, especially as she was the winner this year with Leon,” a source told the Daily Star Sunday. “But she knows any more clashes with Sharon could risk her job as Simon Cowell has made it clear he wouldn’t hesitate to sack both of them. [...]
