Simon Cowell has broken his silence on Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh after the fuming stars laid into the X Factor boss and revealed they no longer speak to him.
Here is The Gist
Sharon, 71, had said she was ‘fuming’ with Simon because he didn’t renew her X Factor contract after saying he would and she lost out on another major TV gig.
And Louis, also 71, said that he and Simon, 64, no longer speak because the mogul had ‘cut him out’ of his life.
The pair also made fun of his appearance and Simon has now broken his silence and doesn’t seem at all bothered by their remarks.
Diplomatic Simon Reacts
When asked by OK! what he makes of them on the show, diplomatic Simon simply said: ‘I think they could both win.’
Meanwhile …
It’s unlikely that Sharon could win the show because she is only in it for five days, unless some sort of twist is going to be announced.
During Friday’s episode of Celebrity Big Brother Brother Sharon was filled with anger as she said she wouldn’t work for Simon again, ‘not for all the money in the world’.
What Happened Between Them
The star revealed the X Factor head judge prevented her from landing a huge job on The Masked Singer in the US due to contractual obligations involving X Factor.
Speaking to Louis the star’s private bedroom she explained: ‘That’s Simon, he cuts you off, cuts you off, cuts you off. He doesn’t know how to keep friends.
Sharon Gossips Simon With Louis
‘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.

‘So then they cast it and then when Simon, well he didn’t call, but they called and said “No you’re not doing it [X Factor]” I missed a huge gig. So I was furious’.
She continued: ‘Do you remember everything that year in the press, they’re old, young blood. I went mad.
‘And then he called me. He was trying to sweet talk me. He would always change, change, change. You’re the one that needs changing mate.’
They Said More
Taking a jibe at Simon’s repetitive dress sense, she added: ‘Someone who dresses the same for three decades, they don’t see that it’s not right. No one’s gonna tell him but everything, the same, the same, the same.’
Louis also admitted he hasn’t spoken to Simon since the X Factor days as he added: ‘I haven’t talked to him at all, nothing. Zero’.
