Sharon Osbourne's bumper Celebrity Big Brother payday: Star received £7,000 for every MINUTE of screentime after demanding a huge fee for her nine-day stint


The former X Factor star, 71, sparked a huge furore when it was revealed she'd joined the star-studded lineup of the ITV reality show, with an eye-watering fee to match.

However, fans were disappointed when it was revealed that she would only be living in the house temporarily as a 'lodger,' joining housemates such as Louis Walsh, Ekin-Su Culculoglu, Fern Britton and Gary Goldsmith. Sharon joined the cast as Big Brother's 'lodger', staying in her own living quarters complete with private toilet, and has lasted a total of nine days in the TV house. She had previously revealed that she could only stay on the ITV series for a short period due to needing to get back to husband Ozzy Osbourne, 75, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019.
