'The X Factor' reduces Osbourne to tears

Ozzy Osbourne has revealed that his wife Sharon is often reduced to tears by The X Factor.

The rock matriarch becomes so attached to the hopefuls that she mentors on the TV singing contest that she reacts bitterly when one of them is eliminated.

Ozzy told Heat: "Sharon gets so involved with it...The X Factor. When one of them got booted off, she'd come home and get into bed and start going: 'Boo hoo, boo hoo!' Three in the f**king morning! I'm like, 'What the f**k!'"
