SEE VIDEO Sinitta: I’d be a better X Factor judge than Dannii Minogue

She thinks the new addition to the panel is a Sharon Osbourne clone

Former popstar Sinitta has slammed new X Factor judge Dannii Minogue – insisting she’d make a better judge.

The 38-year-old – who helps mentor the singers in Simon Cowell’s category – doesn’t think Dannii has the, er, X Factor.

‘I don’t think she adds anything to the show,’ she says. ‘She’s certainly no better than I would have been.

‘I'd have had a lot more going for me as a judge – Simon mentored me when I was a child so I would have had the real desire to beat him.’

And Sinitta – who is in the process of adopting 2 babies with hubby Andy Willner – reckons Dannii, 35, is trying to be too much like fellow judge Sharon Osbourne.

‘They’re so similar they could be sisters or mother and daughter,’ she tells Celebs On Sunday.

‘They both have those wide eyes, flawless skin and dark hair. It wasn’t like they brought in someone completely different.’

Sounds like someone’s got a truck-load of sour grapes.
