Sharon Osbourne axed from ‘X Factor’
London: Television personality Sharon Osbourne has been ousted as a judge of “X Factor” after she passed derogatory remarks on performers at the reality TV show.
Producer Simon Cowell and show chiefs took the decision to fire her. Amid all the speculations, Osbourne took to Facebook to confirm that she is no more a part of the talent entertainer, reports bbc.com.
She wrote: “After watching the new season of ‘X Factor’ unfold, I’ve seen the new judges finding their rhythm and (they) are doing brilliantly. Simon was so gracious to find me a spot on the live shows but at this point I really don’t think I’m needed and I would honestly feel odd coming in at this point.
“So I have decided to pass on the series this year. I wish the show continued success and as much as I love to get my face on TV you will have to do without me this season.”
Earlier, the former judge slammed Cowell during an interview with TV host jock Howard Stern, saying Cowell is a “f***ing pain in the ass” and revealing she was demanding 10 million pounds from Cowell as her contract means she must be paid the same as new judges Robbie Williams and Ayda Field.
The competition is now in its 15th series and is currently in the middle of the Six Chair Challenge.
