Sharon Osbourne has blasted Madonna over her adoption of a Malawian orphan.

The 'X Factor' judge - who is married to Ozzy Osbourne - branded the 'Hung Up' singer's efforts "a crock of s**t" and accused her of having "bought" baby David.

Sharon fumed during her interview with US shock jock Howard Stern: "It is like getting a Louis Vuitton handbag. If she wants to help the kid, she should have helped the father to get a little trade going, a fruit stand or something. She bought a baby, for God's sake."

Meanwhile, the 'X Factor' contestants are preparing themselves for a possible shock double-eviction on Saturday's (28.10.06) show.

Judge Simon Cowell has revealed there will be a "shock twist" on the talent search and it could reportedly be one of four scenarios - a double eviction being one of the possibilities.

A source said: "The contestants have no idea what is going to happen. But that's the point - we don't want anyone getting too comfortable. We want to give viewers some extra excitement."
