Sharon Osbourne may have departed The X Factor, but the threat of feuds within the talent show's judging panel still remains. The Osbourne family matriarch has proved a popular if controversial TV personality since making a name for herself on MTV fly-on-the-wall reality show The Osbournes. Jamiroquai's Jay Kay is an equally prolific tabloid target due to much-publicised bust-ups with the paparazzi and his penchant for shelling out on expensive cars. DS heads from Sharon to Jay through Six Degrees Of Separation.

Sharon Osbourne to… Rebecca Loos - Enraged by Rebecca Loos’s alleged affair with David Beckham, Sharon criticised the former PA when she appeared on a celebrity edition of The X Factor, saying: "You should try doing tomorrow's performance with your knickers on, because it will help warm up your voice… you have nice boobs, you've had a very nice boob job."


Rebecca Loos to… Michael Palin - A regular on the reality TV merry-go-round, Rebecca once confessed that she had ambitions to be a travel presenter in the mould of an ex-Monty Python star. "I'm interested in travel and different cultures. People have told me I could be the next Michael Palin - only more glamorous," she said. "I can speak four languages fluently."


Michael Palin to... Phillip Schofield - What links Michael Palin to Phillip Schofield? They're both celebs no woman wants to admit to fancying! Earlier in the year, the pair made the top ten in a 'Men I Secretly Adore' poll of 5,000 female users from the website Dating Direct. Phillip has bragging rights, though, having finished in top spot. Michael landed at number eight.


Phillip Schofield to… Anne Robinson - Nice-guy Phillip's pairing with acid-tongued Anne Robinson on the BBC's Test The Nation quiz resulted in one of TV's more unlikely partnerships. Perhaps opposites didn't quite attract, as the This Morning host was eventually replaced by comedian and author Danny Wallace. For our last leap, let's remind you of Anne's speed-demon past.


Anne Robinson to… Jay Kay - Anne might not be a petrolhead but she's had her share of motoring woes. The Weakest Link when it comes to observing road laws, Anne has been convicted of speeding on four occasions, with the most recent resulting in a six-month driving ban. It's a distinction she shares with Jay Kay, who faced a six month ban after being clocked doing 100mph in a 4x4 in 2004.
