Jack Osbourne reveals 'X Factor' struggle

Jack Osbourne has admitted that he found it difficult to watch his mother Sharon on The X Factor.

The 23-year-old Adrenaline Junkie star revealed that he was confused by the way his mum behaved when she appeared as a judge on the ITV1 talent show from 2004 to 2007.

Speaking to Kerrang, he commented: "There's definitely a lot of embarrassing stuff. I always found X Factor with my mum hard to deal with, just because who she is perceived as on television is not necessarily who she is to me.

"Just like when my dad's on stage. At home, my dad is dad - he's not Ozzy Osbourne.

"I had a hard time getting used to the fact that my mum now had a public persona she'd created for herself, but also she was my mum."

Sharon quit The X Factor last year following a rumoured salary dispute and tensions with fellow panellist Dannii Minogue.
