Sharon Osbourne has signed a £2 million deal to host an ITV1 chat show.
The X Factor judge will apparently go head-to-head with Channel 4's Paul O'Grady in the 5pm slot later this spring.
An insider told the Sunday Mirror, "The signing is an amazing coup for ITV. The public love Sharon. She's bold, bubbly, honest and genuine. She'll be perfect."
The article claims that an official announcement will be made by ITV later this month.
