Kylie Minogue remains one of the biggest names in pop music today, with a back catalogue that most modern day pop starlets could only dream of for their future output. With this in mind, her appointment as a judge on the upcoming season of the BBC's The Voice looks as though it could be the coup of the TV talent shows, however not everyone is convinced that she'll make a convincing judge on the show.

Her credentials as a pop artist need no justifying, however her credentials as a presence on television will be seriously tested when she begins her new job sitting alongside Tom Jones, Will.i.am and whoever is brought in to replace the departing Danny O'Donoghue. She is my all means a much more popular entertainer compared to Jessie, and probably more so than some of the men that she is joining, but she enters the BBC series as an inexperienced TV presenter and may struggle to assert any kind of personality and endear herself to the audience.

Matthew Mosshart, brother of The Dead Weather/The Kills lead singer Alison Mosshart, has popped the question to his girlfriend Kelly Osbourne, who is the daughter of Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne. Mosshart, a vegan chef-turned model, mustered up the courage to ask Kelly to marry him whilst the pair were on holiday on the island of Anguilla in the Caribbean. The couple met whilst at model Kate Moss and The Kills guitarist Jamie Hince's wedding in 2011, where Matthew's sister Alison was best woman. They tried out a distance relationship at first - Osbourne lives in L.A whilst Mosshart lived in New York, but after a year he made the decision to uproot his NY home and job to be with his love on the other side of the country - the "biggest sacrifice," according to 28-year old Kelly.

She told Hello! Magazine via Sky News that her engagement ring was inspired by her father's earring: "I used to hold my finger up to his ear when I was little and say: 'I want a ring like that'. Now I have one." In a rather romantic statement, Mosshart had admitted "I knew she was The One pretty early on," with Kelly claiming to All Voices that her boyfriend's vegan diet and positive attitude to healthy eating helped the TV personality, who has previously struggled with her weight, shedding 63 pounds last year. The pair are clearly as smitten as possible, with Kelly proclaiming "Matthew has broken down every one of my walls. There's nothing I wouldn't do in front of him."

Sharon Osbourne To Make X Factor Return; Tulisa Out


Sharon Osbourne

One of the original X Factor judges Sharon Osbourne will be returning to the UK version of the reality singing competiton, after it was revealed that Tulisa Contostavlos wouldn’t be returning after two years on the show.

"I couldn't be happier about coming back for the 10th anniversary of X Factor. I can't wait to give Gary Barlow a big hug, sit next to the gorgeous Nicole, and of course throw water on dear Louis. Yay!" said Sharon of her return. The wife of Ozzy Osbourne was last on the show some six years ago, and some quarters feel that her return is long overdue.

As for Tulisa, she broke the news to her Twitter followers that she wouldn’t be coming back on the show after working with X Factor between 2010 and 2012. She wrote: "Just wanted to let you all know that I won't be part of The X Factor panel this year. I've had a great time on the show, but this year it's time to do something different. I'd like to thank everyone on The X Factor for two amazing years." The move to get Osbourne back into the fold may well be something to do with the plummeting viewing figures, with the show hitting a seven years low last year. Additionally Tulisa’s relationships with the other judges deteriorated rapidly, culminating in her having a row with Gary Barlow.

Sharon Osbourne Replaces Tulisa Contostavlos For A Cool £1.8 Million


Sharon Osbourne The X Factor Simon Cowell Gary Barlow Nicole Scherzinger

Sharon Osbourne has agreed to return to the X-Factor to replace Tulisa Contostavlos in a £1.8 million deal. The reality star agreed terms in London this week and will jet in before the first audition in Glasgow on June 4, 2013. An official announcement is to be made imminently, though it is has been widely reported that Sharon has been in talks with ITV bosses for several months.

A source told The Sun, "Sharon's been through hell lately, so x factor was not front of mind. But she loves the show and missed it. Things with Ozzy have calmed down but they're a long way off being sorted." Simon Cowell has decided that Sharon is the right woman to revamp the show after it lost over three million viewers last time out. The music guru had also approached Oasis founder Noel Gallagher to join the judging panel - a request that he rejected. 

Osbourne will earn £1.5 million in cash and £300,000 in first class flights between the UK and Los Angeles, with hotels, wardrobe and make-up costs also thrown in. She initially quit the panel in 2008 following a reported bust-up with Dannii Minogue. She will be joined by Gary Barlow (who is still thrashing out a new deal also worth £1.5 million) and Louis Walsh (who is presumably happy to accept anything). Nicole Scherzinger could return, though Mel B is reportedly on stand-by should the former Pussycat Doll decide to look for work elsewhere.

Sharon made that clear in a recent interview on The Talk: “Everybody knows he’s been struggling with this [substance abuse] his entire life and I never knew that he was using prescription drugs. I knew he was drinking occasionally, but I didn’t realize to the extent. It’s our business — we’re dealing with it; we’re not getting divorced. "However, am I happy? No. Am I upset? Yes I am — I’m devastated right now."

Like many celebrities recently, Sharon also spoke out against the media’s role in distorting the facts for the sake of drama and a good headline: “Everything that was printed in the tabloids has been distorted," Sharon said Tuesday. "There’s always a little seed of truth to everything that gets reported, but then it gets very distorted. The only thing that’s true was the Facebook posting that my husband did on his Facebook where he said he’s been using alcohol and prescription drugs for the last year and a half … and that he has been in a very dark place. That’s true. It’s very true."

She might be devastated, but she’s sticking by her man.

X-Factor Lures Sharon Osbourne Back With Staggering £2 Million Salary


Sharon Osbourne Nicole Scherzinger

Sharon Osbourne’s marriage may well be in trouble but that hasn’t stopped the sharp-tongued matriarch from marching ever onwards with her career. She may have left the X Factor UK judging panel back in 2007 but now, Mrs Osbourne is not only set to return to her old role, but she’s going to do it in record-breaking style, with a reported £2 million deal getting inked to secure the reprisal of her slot on the show.

If you’re wondering who’s seat she’s going to be snatching, Huffington Post have reported that it is in fact Nicole Scherzinger who is likely to be giving up her judging slot, whilst Tulisa looks likely to escape her reported axing. Reports suggest that Nicole is opting to focus on her career, leaving Tulisa to make amends for her apparent lack of commitment on last season’s shows, which seemed to lead to her future on X Factor being on shaky ground. Tulisa’s album wasn’t quite the success that quite the success that she will have hoped it to be so X Factor could well be a lifeline for her.

Meanwhile, Sharon Osbourne has been in the press recently for slightly less celebratory reasons, after it was revealed that her marriage to Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne is on the rocks. Ozzy’s drink and drugs addictions have reared their ugly head again, though the couple are denying reports that they are getting divorced.

Sharon And Ozzy Osbourne Living Apart, But Still Together


Sharon Osbourne Ozzy Osbourne The X Factor

Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne have moved out of their Los Angeles home and are living apart, according to The Sun. The couple, who have been married for 31 years, haven't seen each other for three weeks since they moved out the property but are thought to still be in a relationship.

Sharon and Ozzy are known for their rows and fiery relationship, though it appeared to work for them - or did it on-screen, in their hit MTV show. However, the fights appear to have taken their toll and Sharon is staying in a hotel until her new house in Beverly Hills is renovated, while Ozzy is renting a property two miles away. "They are living at different addresses and are not spending any time together. They row a lot," a source said, "They aren't acting like husband and wife. It is unusual to not even have dinner together when both of them are five minutes apart."

A friend of the couple also told the paper "Sharon and Ozzy have had plenty of opportunities to meet up but haven't spent any time together at all." The couple have been spotted without their wedding rings at numerous events this year, and Sharon recently alluded to the personal problems by tweeting about having a "really tough year."

X-Factor Bosses Tell Noel Gallagher To "Name His Price" For Judging Spot


Noel Gallagher Simon Cowell The X Factor Gary Barlow Nicole Scherzinger Sharon Osbourne

X-Factor producers have officially approached Noel Gallagher for the second time with an offer to become a judge on the ITV talent show. The former Oasis guitarist, 45, has been at the top of Simon Cowell's wish list for a number of years, though Noel's management company Ignition have received the biggest offer yet from the Syco Music mogul, thought to be, essentially, a blank cheque.

A source told The Sun last night, "Simon is determined to get Noel on board. He sees him as his natural replacement as the real alpha male on the panel. He thinks Noel would be ideal, with his music knowledge, straight-talking and rapier wit." Cowell made a seven-figure offer to the rocker last year, though was knocked back as Gallagher prepared to release his No.1 album. Though Noel has made no secret of his openness to offers should the money be right, it may be his young daughter who emerges as the key to discussions. The source added, "Noel's daughter Anais is a huge fan of One Direction and X Factor, so she'll be nagging him to say yes." 

The guitarist appears to have the talents required to judge and mentor singing hopefuls. During an interview with Real Radio Yorkshire in 2011, Gallagher said, "I don't mind The X Factor.I've got an 11-year-old daughter; she's obsessed with it as all 11-year-old girls are. I was watching it on Saturday actually, and I managed to pick everybody they put through to the live finals." He also spoke of being approached by Cowell, "I know him and he was going 'we want you to be on it'" Noel said, "I was going 'you don't really want me on it - I won't put anyone through, and I can't have people round my house crying in the kitchen when I don't put them through because they'll frighten the cat."

Sharon Osbourne's X-Factor Return On The Horizon As Mel B Drops Out


Sharon Osbourne

There’s a bit of a shuffle around going on in Simon Cowell’s reality contest empire, and it largely looks like Sharon Osbourne has emerged as the winner after it was claimed by British newspaper The Sun that it was all but a done deal she’ll be returning to her judging chair on the UK X Factor, six years after she last held the position.

According to a source for The Sun, Cowell is “not looking at anyone else” beyond Osbourne. The insider continued: “Simon is a huge fan of Sharon. Things are looking good for her. She is in pole position.” The 60 year-old’s favourite status however has come about after former Spice Girl Mel B ruled herself out of the running for the position, after being confirmed to appear as a judge on Australia’s Got Talent instead. She’ll be appearing on the judges panel alongside TV comedienne and actress Dawn French.

In further reality show judging news, Dannii Minogue — who Sharon famously fell out with the last time she appeared on The X Factor — has been confirmed by Cowell to have joined the new Australian X Factor. A source close to Minogue said: “She lives in Melbourne now and can spend more time with her son Ethan.” Cowell has previously expressed his desire to work with Minogue again, despite revelations coming out last year of the pair having an affair while Minogue worked on the UK X Factor.

Playing Her Cards Right: Potential X Factor Judge Sharon Osbourne Dines Out With Mezghan Hussainy


Sharon Osbourne

Is Sharon Osbourne making a play to get back on the UK X Factor judging panel? She’s certainly making all the right moves, if that is what she’s up to. Sharon – who was formerly a judge on the show – is being mooted as a potential replacement for Tulisa Contostavlos who was reportedly not showing enough commitment to the show. Osbourne was recently spotted out in West Hollywood, California, having dinner with Mezhgan Hussainy, X Factor mogul Simon Cowell’s former fiancée and close friend.

The 60 year old looked to be in pretty good spirits as she and Mezhgan left the exclusive restaurant they had been dining at, the Daily Mail reports. Whilst Sharon had opted for a sleek monochrome outfit, a white t-shirt topped off with smart black trousers, a black jacket and a gold-edged handbag, Hussainy brought a splash of colour to the outing, with a red halter-neck dress and black scarf. Sharon was previously a judge on X Factor between 2004 and 2007 and it looks as though she could be returning. She’s far from the favourite to take the role, though, with a show source telling the newspaper “It’s a wildcard. But I wouldn’t rule it out.”

Mel B Set To Become A Super-Judge With Both America’s Got Talent And X-Factor Roles?


Mel B Sharon Osbourne

Apparently it’s between Mel B and Sharon Osbourne for the last remaining judge's slot on X Factor. With the Spice Girl’s performance last year and her upcoming spot on America’s Got Talent – we’ve got her down as the favourite.

With Louis Walsh and Gary Barlow set to return, Simon Cowell has got some decisions to make as to who sits alongside them. Osborne has confidence, experience and is not afraid to tell it how it is. Unfortunately for her, Mel B has all of that, and is younger. An insider said: “It is about getting the right chemistry on each panel and the best dynamic. Simon’s focus is getting the American X Factor right then he’ll sort out the British show. While Louis and Gary are pretty certain to return, it is still all to play for for the women.” Another source said: “Sharon is seriously back in contention, as is Mel — it could go down to the wire.” It would appear as though Sharon is on a charm offensive in a bid to get that role. She’s been seen out for dinner with Cowell recently, and we wonder who picked up the bill.

911 To The Rescue!! Sharon Osbourne Sets Fire To Home After Candle Mishap


Sharon Osbourne Kelly Osbourne Lady GaGa

Sharon Osbourne found herself on the receiving end of a rather nasty surprise yesterday morning (January 17, 2013) when she accidentally set fire to her house after leaving a candle burning. As with many house fires, Sharon hadn’t fallen foul of that most basic of fire safety rules. Do not leave a candle burning when you go to sleep.

Luckily for Sharon, the Beverly Hills Fire Department were on hand to tend to the fire, which thankfully hadn’t spread too far before they reached the property at 4:45am. It’s not clear who else was in the house at the time, but Sharon had a few words of advice for TMZ’s readers, saying “Please everybody always check all the candles lit in the house before going to bed. I didn't, and at 5am this morning I was met with 5 gorgeous men from the BH Fire Department as they put out the fire in my house.” We’re guessing she wasn’t too shaken by the ordeal, if she managed to notice how good looking the firemen were. Sharon had nothing but good words to say about the local fire department and even tweeted a message of thanks, saying “I want to say Thank You to everyone at the Beverly Hills Fire Department for coming to our aid and taking such good care of us this morning.”

Hopefully, this ordeal might distract her for a short while from the feud she’s been having with Lady GaGa. Sharon stepped in to defend her daughter Kelly Osbourne, who has ben receiving insulting messages from Lady Gaga’s fans. Her recent message to Lady Gaga was “don’t let your fans be so hideously damaging, hurtful, violent, spreading violence on your website. If you are a Mother Monster, monitor it.”

Gaga Vs. The Osbournes: Has A Truce Been Established?


Lady GaGa Kelly Osbourne Sharon Osbourne

Lady GaGa and Kelly/Sharon Osbourne's feud may be over before it has begun, with the waters of conflict still looking relatively calm.

It may not be exactly a celebrity feud after all. Despite our collective hunger for even the tiniest ounce of scandal, nothing new is happening in the reported Osbournes/Lady Gaga feud. To summarize the entire conflict: earlier during the week Lady Gaga posted an open letter, directed at Kelly Osbourne, accusing her of judging and mocking her fellow celebrities “like zoo animals”, from the platform of her E! show Fashion Police. Following Gaga’s accusation, a lot of her fans apparently snapped at Miss Osbourne (as Little Monsters have been known to do), resorting to insults and even death threats.

That was pretty harsh, to say the least, but after Momma Sharon got involved the whole thing got even uglier. Her own letter to Gaga uses descriptions like “attention seeking hypocrite” and “bully”. Ouch. It is interesting that Sharon Osbourne chose to get involved, while Kelly herself has remained remarkably composed and quiet about the whole thing, but then again, the elder Osbourne does have a lot more experience in the feuding department. It seems that things have calmed down over the weekend though, with neither party responding further. We’re not sure if we’re happy about the fragile truce or slightly disappointed, to be honest. Calm down everybody – the kickoff of celebrity feuds for the year has been postponed until further notice.

Sharon Osbourne On Double Mastectomy: "It Was A No Brainer"


Sharon Osbourne Ozzy Osbourne

Sharon Osbourne is no stranger to cancer, having battled it 10 years ago when colon cancer reared its ugly head. In a preemptive move, she has undergone a double mastectomy to reduce the risk of a return.

Her decision comes soon after Channel 4's Stand Up To Cancer Campaign, in which the former X-Factor judge played a part. "For me, it wasn't a big decision, it was a no-brainer," she told Hello! "I didn't want to live the rest of my life with that shadow hanging over me. I want to be around for a long time and be a grandmother to Pearl." For Osbourne, her health is more important that her appearance, and as someone who's experiences cancer before, you can only sympathise with her decision. "I didn't even think of my breasts in a nostalgic way," she told the magazine. "I just wanted to be able to live my life without that fear all the time. It's not 'pity me', it's a decision I made that's got rid of this weight that I was carrying around."

The whole experience has put her off plastic surgery, as the 60-year old Brixton born star aims to prolong her life, rather than maintain the vain aesthetics of it. "Sometimes I'll see a photo and I'll think, 'My face looks plastic'; it can look so unnatural from certain angles," Sharon says. "Now I am definitely, definitely done. You can't buy your youth back, no matter how much money you've got I won't be going under the knife again."

Sharon Osbourne Has Double Mastectomy Following Breast Cancer Scare


Sharon Osbourne Ozzy Osbourne Jack Osbourne

Sharon Osbourne took the huge decision to have a double mastectomy following her discovery that she was carrying the gene that caused 50 to 80 per cent of carriers to develop breast cancer. 

The American Idol judge and wife of Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne has already suffered from colon cancer that spread to her lymph nodes; a diagnosis that was given in 2002 and was subsequently beaten despite being given only a 33% chance of survival. 'I've had cancer before and I didn't want to live under that cloud [of breast cancer]: I decided to just take everything off, and had a double mastectomy', she revealed to Hello! Magazine in a tell-all interview. It's a 13-hour operation that can take several weeks to recover from but Sharon refuses to feel sorry for herself. 'It's not 'pity me': it's a decision I made that's got rid of this weight that I was carrying around', she said. 'For me, it wasn't a big decision, it was a no-brainer.' She insisted that the decision was easy having just welcomed her first granddaughter Pearl into the family: 'I want to be around for a long time and be a grandmother to Pearl. I didn't even think of my breasts in a nostalgic way.'

The once plastic surgery obsessed star who has spent £300,000 on surgical enhancements could possibly thank her recent family traumas for being less concerned with her physical appearance; it has only been a matter of months since her son Jack was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and Sharon has freely and emotionally admitted it has not been easy to cope with.

Sharon Osbourne's Double Mastectomy: I Didn't Want To Live Under That Cloud


Sharon Osbourne Jack Osbourne

Sharon Osbourne has revealed that she underwent a double mastectomy after learning she had a genetic mutation that raised her chances of developing breast cancer. Osbourne, 60, said the surgery was a "no brainer" once doctors told her about the gene.

"As soon as I found out I had the breast cancer gene, I thought: 'The odds are not in my favour", she told Hello magazine, "I've had cancer before and I didn't want to live under that cloud: I decided to just take everything off, and had a double mastectomy." The Talk star documented her struggles with colon cancer 10 years ago during her smash-hit reality series The Osbournes. It's sure been a rough year for the famous family, with son Jack diagnosed with multiple sclerosis - however, his first daughter Pearl also arrived into the world. "I didn't want to live the rest of my life with that shadow hanging over me. I want to be around for a long time and be a grandmother to Pearl," explained Sharon, adding, "I didn't even think of my breasts in a nostalgic way, I just wanted to be able to live my life without that fear all the time. It's not 'pity me', it's a decision I made that's got rid of this weight that I was carrying around."

Osbourne didn't go into detail about the genetic findings, though a double mastectomy is usually an option for women with certain factors that put them at high risk of developing breast cancer. This includes a previous diagnosis, a strong family history of cancer, or a mutation.

X Factor Boyband GMD3 To Become 'District 3' After Virus Jibes


The X Factor Louis Walsh Sharon Osbourne

The X Factor boy-band GMD3 have been forced into a rebranding campaign after Sharon Osbourne joked that their name sounded like a virus. Though the former judge is spot on, it's also just a terrible name.


Nevertheless, the group's curiously named singer Dan Ferrari-Lane and band-mates Greg and Nicky look set to become 'District 3 after asking fans for their suggestions. Though 'District 3' sounds like a quarantine pen for those who've contracted GMD3, it's probably slightly better, however, it's not a done deal just yet. Mentor Louis Walsh told The Sun, "GMD3's new name? I think it will be District 3. District 3 we are hoping to clear. But it's not 100 per cent." Singer Nicky added: "There were quite a few good suggestions - and loads of joke ones: Greg and His Sausage Rolls. Threesome, Threeway. Louis' Little Boys." Creepy. The group will perform live for the first time tomorrow after impressing in the Boot Camp and Judges' Houses stages. "They're great guys. They've already proved themselves vocally, and I think they are going to be great," added Louis.


GMD3, District 3, or Louis' Little Boys - either way, the group are still the 20/1 outsiders with the bookies to win this year's show. Songstress Ella Henderson is as short as 5/4 with some bookmakers, meaning she's just about nailed on.


Video - Sharon Osbourne Calls Shouting Photographer 'Stroppy'


'America's Got Talent' judge Sharon Osbourne waves at fans and poses for press photos as she arrives for her appearance on 'The Late Show With David Letterman'. One photographer shouts for her to turn and face him a little too loud and she pulls a pretend upset face and calls him a 'stroppy man'.

She has recently quit her role as a judge on 'America's Got Talent' after the channel that airs it, NBC, refused to let her son Jack take part on the reality show 'Stars Earn Stripes' reportedly due to his recent diagnosis with multiple sclerosis and suggestions that it may hold him back. On the 'David Letterman Show', she still seemed bitter about it and didn't immediately respond to Letterman's suggestion that the conflict was over

Ozzy: I Can't Remember Bike Accident


Ozzy Osbourne Black Sabbath Doctor Who Kelly Osbourne Sharon Osbourne

Rocker Ozzy Osbourne has revealed that he can't remember anything from his quad bike accident in 2003 which left him in intensive care in a UK hospital.

The former Black Sabbath frontman is a guest on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross tonight on BBC1 and discusses the accident with Ross, which occurred just days after his last appearance on the show.

"I can't remember what happened, my heart stopped twice, the first thing I remember was seven days later  but I was only going at three miles an hour. I always used to say I'm going to die by the time I'm 40, I always thought something like that would happen to me," Ozzy said.

Ozzy, 58, also spoke of his two children, Jack and Kelly Osbourne, who were thrust into the spotlight during their teenage years on the TV reality show which was filmed at the Osbourne's home.

"Overnight they were celebrities and didn't know how to handle it. [Now] Jack's great, he goes round and lectures in schools, tells them his story, young people can relate to him," the rocker said.

"At the beginning [the TV show] was great fun but then it got really tiring. You'd get a creepy feeling there was a camera around you all the time even when there wasn't."

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's home in Buckinghamshire was burgled in 2004 and Ozzy tackled an intruder who managed to get away with a valuable quantity of jewellery.

"I sleepwalk a lot, I was naked," the rocker said. "There was this guy bent down. I thought 'am I dreaming?' Like a fool I ran at him and then thought 'now what', so I just let him go."

Also appearing on the chat show tonight are Doctor Who star Freema Agyeman and presenter Justin Lee Collins.

The programme will be shown on BBC1 at 22:35 BST.
