The heartbreaking REAL reason Sharon Osbourne signed up for Celebrity Big Brother is revealed as the star admits why The X Factor won’t return
Speaking to The Sun ahead of her appearance in the house, the former X Factor judge confessed that her husband loves watching old clips of her and Louis from their time on the hit singing show, prompting her to want more iconic moments to create.
‘And then I think, “Oh well…” because Ozzy is kind of hard to make laugh and he just loves watching them.’
At the start of the series, Sharon gave an update on Ozzy’s condition, admitting: ‘He’s doing well, it’s hard for him, but he’s doing well. He’s already starting to complain. I called him for the last time on the way here and he was miserable.’
Sharon also opened up about her friendship with Louis, as their time together on CBB marks the first time they have been seen on-screen together since 2017.
However, Sharon insisted to The Sun that the pair have been close since their time on X Factor together ended.
Speaking about the secret of their friendship, she admitted: “What is the secret of our friendship? A very mischievous sense of humor. Very naughty, very, very naughty. I do not know what it is. I think we have a similar sense of humor and sense of fun and mischief.”
The star said she never sees The X Factor coming back as she explained that the music industry has changed so much and new artists are now being discovered on social media.
However, it seems this isn’t the only reason why Sharon doesn’t believe an X Factor reunion will happen, after admitting on the show that she would never work with Simon Cowell again.
During Friday’s episode, Sharon was filled with anger as she said she wouldn’t be working for Simon again: “not for all the money in the world’.

The star revealed that the X Factor head judge stopped her from landing a big job on The Masked Singer in the US due to contractual obligations regarding X Factor.
Speaking to Louis in the star’s private bedroom, she explained: ‘That’s Simon, he cuts you off, cuts you off, cuts you off. He doesn’t know how to keep friends.
‘Why do you think I’m so mad at Simon because remember that year when you and I were signed to do X Factor and it was the first year of The Masked Singer in America and they asked me to do it and I said that I can’t do that because of X Factor with Simon.
‘So then they cast it and then Simon, well, he didn’t call, but they called and said, “No, you’re not doing it (X Factor)”, I missed a huge gig. So I was furious.”
She continued, “Do you remember everything in the press that year, they’re old, young blood. I went crazy.
‘And then he called me. He tried to sweet talk me. He would always change, change, change. You’re the one who has to change partners.’
She joked about Simon’s repetitive dress sense, adding, “Someone who has dressed the same for thirty years doesn’t see that it’s not right.” No one’s going to tell him, except everything, same, same, same.”
Louis also admitted he hasn’t spoken to Simon since the X Factor days, adding: ‘I haven’t spoken to him at all, nothing. Zero’.
