Osbourne attacks Cowell for calling Kelly 'ugly'

Rock matriarch Sharon Osbourne has blasted Simon Cowell for branding her rocker daughter Kelly "ugly".

The Osbournes reality star teamed up with Cowell and Westlife svengali Louis Walsh on new British TV talent show The X Factor and, after watching his attitude towards the show's female contestants, believes he insulted Kelly for not being a dull, manufactured pop star.
