Dannii snubs present from Louis Walsh

Louis Walsh was snubbed by his X Factor co-star Dannii Minogue when he handed her a Christmas present.

Minogue claimed that Walsh and Sharon Osbourne were trying to bully her after Louis mocked her pop career during a live episode of the show.

However, Walsh has since praised Dannii for her success as a mentor and described her as the biggest surprise of this year's series.

An insider told The Mirror: "Louis went to great lengths buying presents for his fellow judges. When he knocked on Dannii's dressing room door, she barely opened it, stuck her arm out, took the present and shut the door again. Louis was staggered."
