Sharon Osbourne: Cowell's a pompous idiot

Rock matriarch Sharon Osbourne still thinks Simon Cowell is a "pompous idiot," despite working with him on new talent show The X Factor.

The Osbournes reality star detested Cowell after interviewing him on The Sharon Osbourne Show but agreed to join him and Westlife svengali Louis Walsh on the celebrity panel of the music search, and she's determined to "out-nasty him".
