Reality TV star Sharon Osbourne was surprised at how witty her X Factor
co-judge Dannii Minogue is - because she expected her to be a "glossy
airhead".
Minogue joined Osbourne and Simon Cowell on the judging panel of the
British TV talent search earlier this year (07), and the 54-year-old was
stunned at how well she fitted into the show.
In her forthcoming autobiography Survivor, Osbourne says, "As for
Dannii Minogue, she's far from the glossy airhead I thought she would be.
She might look like the most beautiful porcelain doll, but she is sharp
and feisty and nobody's fool. We're from a different generation, but I
respect her and she brings a new dynamic to the show."
