Sharon Osbourne reignites bitter feud with Dannii Minogue on Celebrity Big Brother 14 years after X Factor
SHARON Osbourne has reignited her bitter feud with Dannii Minogue on Celebrity Big Brother.
It has been 14 years after they last appeared on The X Factor together, but it seems there is absolutely no love lost.
It is well known that the pair did not exactly get on whilst working together on the hit singing competition.
However, Sharon has now opened up on her time working on the ITV show whilst in the Celebrity Big Brother house.
Ibiza Weekender star David Potts asked Sharon if it was “awkward” being on the show with Dannii.
Sharon confirmed it was, as Louis Walsh commented that it was bad not just for one year but for “every season.”
She then told the story how as soon as the camera rolled, she would awkwardly grab the hand of her colleague.
The Osbournes star admitted that she would raise the arm up for the studio audience, even though Danny didn’t necessarily want too.
But in a surprising twist, the star then added: “Yeah she’s alright, she’s alright.”
At the time, their argument reportedly stemmed from Dannii’s relationship with exec producer and head judge Simon Cowell.
Dannii did not deny flirting with Simon, but she denied any relationship
Danni previously confessed: “But that man could flirt with a book, a wall, anything.”
But in the unauthorised autobiography, Sweet Revenge: The Intimate Life of Simon Cowell, he made a dramatic revelation about their shared dynamic.
He revealed: “I had a crush on her. It was Dannii’s hair, the sexy clothes, and the t**s. It was genuine love. I was like a schoolboy. She was foxy. She was a real man’s girl. Very feminine.”
But Sharon couldn’t stand to sit next to the Australian singer as she confessed to Piers Morgan‘s Life Stories.
The former music manager admitted: “I didn’t hate her because hatred is very close to love and takes a lot of emotion and I don’t have that time for her.”
She added: “She was like an insect, a mosquito that wouldn’t go away.”
Celebrity Big Brother line-up
Who are the 13 stars appearing in the Celebrity Big Brother house? The Sun's Jamie Downham takes a look...
Sharon Osbourne – TV legend – who is a “house guest” on a megabucks deal – said she was doing the show for “a good time not a long time”
Louis Walsh – Irish boyband manager who has never knowingly backed down from a fight and is not above pulling rank over the double bed
Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu – As we know from Love Island, the Ek-ster is capable of throwing about some dramatics to claw her way to the final
Levi Roots – Reggae Reggae Sauce sauce packs a bit of a kick, but its inventor seems quite mild-mannered. Will that change under pressure?
Fern Britton – The former This Morning star called out Phillip Schofield – don’t think she won’t do the same to anyone who tangles with her
Colson Smith – You’ll probably know him best as Corrie’s Craig Tinker – but prepare to find out he’s not much like his character
David Potts – Ibiza Weekender’s breakout star has left that show behind – as well as his trousers by the look of things
Gary Goldsmith – Kate Middleton’s uncle is a big signing for ITV, but has proved a divisive booking among viewers
Marisha Wallace – It’s not CBB without the role of ‘American who doesn’t know what they’ve let themselves in for’ and she’s doing brilliantly
Nikita Kuzmin – The Strictly pro is coming onto the show fresh off the show’s tour. Poor lad probably just wants a rest
Zeze Mills – the social media star has a “no holds barred interview style” – and she hasn’t backed away from calling people (well, Louis) out
Bradley Riches – The actor played kindly James McEwan in Netflix hit Heartstopper and he seems just as sweet in the house
Lauren Simon – She’s a Real Housewives of Cheshire star and you really don’t get on that show by being shy and retiring
