Louis Walsh: Sharon Osbourne quit because of Dannii Minogue

TV judge says he might walk out too

Tuesday, 10 June 2008

Louis Walsh is furious that Sharon Osbourne has left The X Factor.

The TV judge reckons Dannii Minogue, 36, should have been the one to go.

‘It’s not contracts or money, it’s Dannii,’ he fumes.

‘They don’t get on at all and she wasn’t happy with the situation. Sharon has walked off, she’s gone.

'Why didn’t they give Dannii the boot instead?’

Louis, 55, is so shocked by Sharon's decision that he’s considering quitting himself.

‘I haven’t signed yet either but I’m negotiating,’ he tells the Sunday Mirror.

‘It’s a difficult situation. Sharon’s a great friend, I talk to her every day. She is devastated and so am I.

‘I have absolutely no relationship with Dannii. I have no idea how she is feeling about all of this because I simply do not talk to her.’

It is thought Mel B, 33, or Cheryl Cole, 24, will replace Sharon on this year’s talent contest.

I think they should have got rid of Dannii. She is a very poor singer and it irritates me shen she tells people they are rubbish or out of tune. On the other hand Sharon Osbourne is the most successful female manager of our time, that speaks for itself. Give Dannii the elbow and get Sharon back. I don't think people watch it just to see Dannii Minogue or is that what Simon is worried about....the sex appeal of the show!

Yeah, I think the only concern of his is the sex appeal. Boo! I think that Sharon with David Hasselhoff is going to be a deadly combo on America's Got Talent this summer!
