Reports have emerged that Australian singer, Dannii Minogue has been asked to ‘tone down’ her behaviour on ITV’s X Factor, sue to launch tonight.

A source on the show told The Mirror newspaper: “Dannii is really grating and it’s already becoming awkward. Sharon Osbourne has been queen bee for years so she’s not taking kindly to Dannii strutting around like she owns the place.”

The insider added: “A few people have advised her to tone it down but Dannii is very prickly when it comes to criticism.”

Dannii recently admitted on a ITV chat show that she is sometimes too honest and direct on the show, sounds a bit like a younger version of Sharon…..maybe thats why they clash so badly!
