As rumoured for months and teaesd when she showed up in the audience of Idol, Sharon Osbourne will replace Brandy Norwood on the judge's panel when America's Got Talent returns for a second run on NBC this summer. Brit Piers Morgan will return as the snappish Brit and David Hasselhoff is back in the Paula Abdul role.
America may have talent, but Sharon's got connections. Sharon is a judge on Talent producer Simon Cowell's X-Factor talent show in the UK. Brandy's departure has been in the cards since it was revealed a few months ago that she'd been involved in a fatal car accident in December and faced wrongful death lawsuits from the victim's family. Simon Cowell and other producers were said to be worried that the publicity would reflect negatively on the show.
So how does that explain replacing Regis Philbin with Jerry Springer?

that's for sure... what if some disgruntled performer decides to make a comment about brandy being a "killer"? dont think she'd be able to handle something like that, nor would anyone esle.

Sorry, but can't stand that Sharon Osbourne bitch. I remember seeing her on some dumb show, where she said what a great mother she was, later both her kids went to rehab. Yeah, she's mother of the year all right.
Go home you lame bitch.
