Sharon Osbourne exited Celebrity Big Brother after spending eight days in the most famous house in the UK.
Osbourne was a “lodger” and wasn’t an official housemate, having agreed to appear in the reality competition for only one week. The former The Talk co-host was not evicted from the house and didn’t face the public vote.
“It’s been a great party. I have loved it,” Osbourne said after Big Brother announced her time had ended.
Big Brother asked Osbourne to name the housemates who impacted her most, saying it was Nikita Kuzmin.
“He’s beautiful inside and outside,” Osbourne said about the Strictly Come Dancing dancer.
Osbourne also mentioned Levi Roots because “he’s just a genuinely good guy.”
“I’ve loved every minute,” Osbourne said outside the house before her daughter Kelly joined her on stage to give her a hug.

Noel Clarke has spoken publicly about why he dropped his lawsuit against BAFTA over a Guardian article accusing him of sexual harassment and bullying. Within hours of the article’s publication in April 2021, BAFTA suspended the actor, writer and director who had received a prize for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema from the org just weeks earlier.
Clarke launched the defamation claim last spring, on the one year anniversary of the expose being published. As well as listing The Guardian and BAFTA as defendants he included journalists Sirin Kale and Lucy Osborne (who wrote the article), then-bafta chair Krishnendu Majumdar, then-bafta CEO Amanda Berry, performers’ union Equity, Conde Nast and a handful of other individuals linked to the piece.
Last September, however, he dropped the claims against all the defendants except The Guardian. In a new interview on YouTube with Zeze Millz, Clarke explained why. “I did that because they just,...
