Kelly Osbourne: Louis Walsh is my favourite X Factor judge

She picks Irish music mogul over mum Sharon

Kelly Osbourne thinks Louis Walsh is the best X Factor judge.

She doesn't believe the series this year would have been the same without him.

‘I love Louis!’ says the 22-year-old.

‘Even though my mum is on there, he’s my favourite. He’s like an uncle to me. He’s my neighbour and we go for lunch together, he’s f**king wicked.

‘He’s very smart and people portray him as a bitch, but he’s a very, very successful man in the music industry and knows what he’s talking about.'

Kelly reckons Simon Cowell was stupid to fire Louis - before reinstating him - but that adding Dannii Minogue, 35, to the judges' panel was a great idea.

‘My mum and her get on really well,’ she tells Star. ‘Dannii’s really easy-going, not a diva at all.’
