Sharon Osbourne: I think Dannii Minogue was thrown off The X Factor

Sharon Osbourne and Dannii Minogue never got on and Mrs O is not sorry that her old adversary has made her exit from The X Factor UK.

Dannii, 39, confirmed last month that TV commitments in Australia clashed with the UK talent show's audition dates and she wouldn't be back for series 8.

'I don't think Dannii was pushed,' Sharon, 58, tells Perez Hilton. 'I think she was f*cking thrown.'

The pair clashed when they first appeared on The X Factor together in 2007 and Sharon later cited Dannii as the reason she quit.

To make matters worse, when the Aussie singer released her autobiography Dannii Minogue: My Story, she accused Sharon of bullying, which reignited their long-running feud.

'I didn't enjoy working with her but to hand it to her she ended up being really good on the show,' Sharon concedes.

'I don't care what she wrote about me in her book. When people say things about you, if you don't respect that person or liek that person, what does it matter to you?'
