Osbourne infuriates 'X Factor's Moon
X Factor reject Moon Kinnaird is furious about comments made by Sharon Osbourne during his audition.

The psychic, who sang Barcelona at the Cardiff auditions, was shocked when Sharon asked about the size of his manhood, after informing him that he looked like seventies porn star Ron Jeremy.

Osbourne's comments were cut out from last night's episode, which saw Moon fail to win a place in the next round.

"I'm not surprised," Moon told The People. "It was disgraceful and entirely unsuitable for a family programme. I half expected her to ask me to get it out and show her."

"The way I was treated was disgusting and the insults were unjustified," he added. "Simon told me, 'So you think you're psychic - don't you mean psycho?'

"I'm used to the judges slating people for their singing, but there's no need to make cruel personal jibes. I noticed Simon couldn't even look me in the eye. Whatever he says on TV, he was scared to say to my face. They were just not interested in my abilities as a singer."
