'There are no more empty threats'. Yuh, right. I'll believe she's gone when we get to the live shows and they haven't brought her back.
Good riddance anyway. Rancid old bat. Now just fire Louis, and we'll be golden.

It wouldn't be a series of The X Factor if someone didn't SENSATIONALLY QUIT at some point. How long do we think before she comes back? Two weeks? Three?
I'm available, if they need someone. I'd whip those dipshit contestants into shape.

I like how they described Dannii as her arch-rival. It makes her sound like a Bond villian and less like a squeaky gate.

The icing on the cake would be Simon Cowell replacing her with international recording artiste and superstar pop icon* Dannii Minogue on America's Got Talent as revenge.
*The yanks'll believe anything.
But yeah, I'll believe it when I see it and it's gonna be 'better luck next year' for Sinitta again.

At least she's getting it out of her system early this year. If she didn't I could easily see her storming off mid performance, leaving her poor "protege" to sing to the back of everyone's heads whilst the camera focused on Sharon repeatedly slamming the studio doors.

Maybe Sinitta can finally get that judges' spot, then Michelle Heaton can fill her shoes as the in-show fan-clad boot camp loon. I think it'll be more likely that Simon will ship Paula Abdul over to replace Sharon. While he's at it, he can get Danny Noriega to come take over from Louis.
I love how the BBC News report on Osbourne legging it ended with "Last year's competition was won by Leon Jackson, who was mentored by Dannii Minogue. Sharon has not produced a winning act in four series of the programme." Burn!

Now just fire Louis, and we'll be golden. I utterly detest Louis Walsh. Firing him wouldn't be enough unless it was from a cannon. Like Joel, I'll believe Sharon has quit when I see it for myself. If they're replacing her, it has to be the woman from Totally Scott-Lee/Boyband (Roseann is it?) - she would be amazing. Just imagine someone coming in with their sob story about their dead mum/brother/hamster and Roseann firing back with 'well I don't feel fucking sorry for you!' We can but dream.

Like Joel, I'll believe Sharon has quit when I see it for myself. If they're replacing her, it has to be the woman from Totally Scott-Lee/Boyband (Roseann is it?) - she would be amazing. Roseann McBride, I think. So, who do we fancy for Sharon's replacement? I would like Steve Brookstein or Michelle McManus. I hope at least that Sharon's ouster might reduce Louis Walsh's obnoxiousness, however fractionally. Having her there as his enabling lapdog always made him worse, so hopefully if Simon's canny enough to hire someone else who won't go along with Louis's shit, he might shut up a bit more often.

Well, he brought in Dannii, who was a lot more sensible and didn't get into all the petty games Sharon and Louis did. Maybe he's genuinely sick of it, and will replace Sharon with Margaret Mountford.

Surely they wouldn't do the same "they've gone", "we've sensationally brought them back" again though?
I know Simon Cowell likes to create drama where none exists but he isn't stupid.

There'd be no 'You're like a young Gladys Knight' comments and the two Dans can join forces to be a more agreeable Anti-Cowell tag team. Bridgey xxx

Bookies' odds on likely successors...
Lulu - 2/1 Paula Abdul - 3/1 Kylie Minogue - 3/1 Kelly Osbourne - 4/1
Sharon returning - 5/6

Lulu?
If there is one person to make Sharon Osbourne look likable in comparison, it's Lulu.

Can you imagine the botox wars if Lulu and Dannii are on the same panel?

I'd be quite happy with Lulu, based on how well she worked with the American Idols last year. I get the impression that she'd actually care about her charges, and take time out from checking her cholestral and coming up with new anti-ageing products to actually spend some time with them.

The Sunday People is saying that Paula Abdul will be the new judge, but also that Sharon may still come back for the live shows.

Oh, my, much as I love her, I wouldn't want Paula trying to mentor me.
They should get Victoria Beckham.

Think you cannot possibly detest Louis Walsh anymore? Think again: www.digitalspy.co.uk/entertainment/a98236/osbourne-told-cowell-to-fire-minogue.html""It's not contracts or money, it's Dannii. They don't get on at all and she wasn't happy with the situation," Walsh told the Sunday Mirror. "Sharon has walked off, she's gone. Why didn't they give Dannii the boot instead?" Walsh added that he has not yet signed up for the new series because he is "devastated" by Sharon's departure. "I haven't signed yet but I am negotiating. It's a difficult situation," he explained. "Sharon is a great friend, I talk to her everyday. She is devastated and so am I. I have absolutely no relationship at all with Dannii. I have no idea how she is feeling about all of this because I simply do not talk to her." Twunt
