Sharon Osbourne will only take part in the next series of talent competition The X Factor if her salary is doubled, according to reports.

The rock matriarch, a judge on the British reality program since it began in 2004, has turned down TV bosses’ offer of $1.5 million and is said to be demanding a new contract, worth $2 million.

A source at TV network ITV tells British newspaper the News Of The World, “Sharon always pushes for the best deal.”
It was reported last year the series creator Simon Cowell was set to fire Osbourne following her scathing attack on fellow judge Dannii Minogue, who joined the show in its fourth season.

ITV1 has avoided punishment by the UK broadcasting watchdog after Sharon Osbourne swore during the Brit awards last month.

Ofcom said the award ceremony’s “reputation for controversy” meant viewers would expect a degree of bad language.

Almost 130 people complained when co-host Osbourne repeatedly swore at Vic Reeves as he slurred his presentation of an award.

“Get on with it, you p*ss-head,” she said in comments broadcast at 21:35 GMT on February 20th.

“Shut up you’re p*ssed, p*ss off! P*ss off you b*st*rd – p*ss off.”

Announcing its decision not to uphold the complaints, Ofcom said: “While we understand that this language may have been offensive to some viewers, it was broadcast after the watershed and in a program with a particular reputation.

“We believe that regular viewers would have been aware of the likelihood of this kind of material.”

A spokesperson added that the language employed by Osbourne had been “quite mild” and claimed the show’s portrayal of alcohol was “limited and incidental to the coverage”.

“In Ofcom’s view, the program did not condone or glamorize alcohol misuse,” a statement explained.

“The effect of these images was more likely to be cautionary than attractive.”

Apparently Sharon Osbourne is comparing her Black Sabbath rocker to everyone’s favorite battery operated bunny.

“He’s like a rabbit, he’s terrible. Every song gets him in the mood for love. He’s just like that battery-powered bunny. Instead of that little rabbit they should have Ozzy’s willy banging a drum.”

Though Lady Osbourne is quite open about her own surgical enhancements, Ozzy’s bits & pieces are still in question. When asked about her man’s rumored penis enlargement, Sharon’s responded with:

“My husband takes a size 14 shoe and has massive hands. He doesn’t need any help in that department.”

“We’ve been married nearly 25 years. The best thing I ever did was getting my bust implants. He loves them. He is like a newborn baby.”

I’m thinking a newborn baby might not like them for the same reasons the Prince of Darkness does.
