Louis Walsh defends Sharon Osbourne’s ‘drunk’ X Factor appearance

The mother-of-three was accused by fans of being "drunk" on the show

Louis Walsh has defended Sharon Osbourne’s “drunk” X Factor appearance again.

The 64-year-old returned to the talent show this year but came under fire when fans accused her of being drunk on the show – but, as the Mayo man has said before, that was not the case.

“She’s not drunk, she’s just high. She’s happy,” he said.

While appearing on Alan Carr’s 12 Stars Of Christmas, the chatty man asked the X Factor judge if both he and Sharon are “p***ed” on the show.

“We don’t drink at all. We never drink before the show. She’s not drunk, she’s just high. She’s happy,” he told the host.

After his comment received a barrel of laughter from the audience, he quickly added that she was “High on life.”

Louis was also asked if he plans on giving presents to his fellow panelists on the hit ITV show.

“I give this panel presents because I like them

“I don’t know what I’m going to get Sharon though, because she’s got everything,” he added.
