Sharon Osborne Says She’s ‘F*ng Mad’ At Simon Cowell
Sharon Osbourne has made her comeback to reality television on Britain’s Celebrity Big Brother and she’s holding no punches. In a recent episode, Sharon spoke with X Factor‘s Louis Walsh about why she had such hard feelings toward Simon Cowell. Keep reading to see why the two are at odds and why Sharon Osbourne blames Simon.
Why Is Sharon Osbourne Mad At Simon Cowell?
According to Sharon, she lost out on a job opportunity because of Simon Cowell. At the time, she worked on the X Factor alongside Louis Walsh. However, she received a call asking her if she would consider coming to host The Masked Singer in the United States. Sharon Osbourne turned the job down due to her obligation to X Factor with Simon.
The reality television icon assumed she would be asked back to work on X Factor. Sharon worked on the program for several years before her time on the show ended in 2018.

It wasn’t until later that she found out that she would not be asked back to X Factor. So, she turned down the gig with The Masked Singer for no reason. “Why do you think I am so f****g mad with Simon because remember that year you and I were contracted to do X Factor and it was the first year of The Masked Singer in America and they asked me to do it and I said I can’t because of X Factor with Simon,” she told Louis.
She shared that she believed she was let go from the show due to ageism. Sharon told Louis, “That’s Simon, he cuts you off, cuts you off, cuts you off. He doesn’t know how to keep friends.” She dished the details of her departure from X Factor and then recalled, “Do you remember everything that year in the press, they’re old, young blood. I went mad.”
Simon Cowell allegedly called Sharon Osbourne after axing her from the reality TV program trying to “sweet talk” her. She didn’t buy it though and has refused to talk to him ever since. “I haven’t talked to him at all, nothing. Zero,” she told Louis.
