Osbourne set to become highest paid judge on X Factor

Sharon Osbourne is expected to sign a record £2m (€2.3m) deal to return to 'The X Factor'.

It is reported there was "no way" the star would snub an offer making her the highest-paid judge in the show's history and she is set to sign the deal in the next few days as part of Simon Cowell's plan to save the singing competition's TV ratings.
