Controversy: Sharon Osbourne says Cheryl Cole won't make it in America


She's no stranger to controversy and is always coming out with outlandish comments which cause a stir.

And now Sharon Osbourne has come forward to say that Cheryl Cole has no chance of making it in America when she goes over next year for the American version of The X Factor.

Former X Factor judge Sharon claims that while Cheryl is popular in the UK, her success will be eclipsed by that of Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger, who is also tipped for the US panel.



New role: Cheryl has apparently been offered £3million for a role on the American version of The X Factor


She told Now magazine: 'Cheryl’s perfect for England - she’s the nation’s sweetheart and they absolutely love her.

'But over here it’s Nicole’s town. You have to think of the audience and most of them would never have heard of Girls Aloud.

'Nicole’s great TV, has a huge following here in the States and people absolutely love her. Plus she’s beautiful and talented.'


Success: Nicole Scherzinger is also tipped for the new US panel

Nicole is a favourite to join the panel of the American show after proving popular when she joined the judges during the audition stages of the programme earlier this year.

And while Sharon says she believes Cheryl is making the right decision to move to Los Angeles, she said she will find it difficult finding the same success Stateside.

She added: 'It takes a long time to make it in the States because it’s so huge. She couldn’t just come over here and do a show then pootle off.'
