New X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger may have been branded 'dull' by critics, but Sharon Osbourne has claimed 'she's actually quite a naughty girl'.

Sharon, who once had a place on the panel herself, also staked a claim to the Pussycat Doll, telling the Sun: 'She was my find!'

The reality TV star continued: 'I had her as a guest judge on X Factor a few years ago. I spotted her!

'I think she's brilliant. She's actually quite a naughty girl.

'She's beautiful, funny... she was up dancing at the auditions already, so she'll be great fun.'

The judge broke down in tears on Sunday's show, after 16-year-old Ella Henderson belted out a moving version of Cher's Believe.

Nicole, who dates F1 star Louis Hamilton, explained: 'It was the lyrics'. 

Despite a plethora of talent and tears from the judges, the ratings for the show have been sliding all series, with many blaming the change in judging line-up. 

Even the drama of Saturday's boot camp episode only raked in 7.86 million for ITV, which was down from the previous week's 8.6 million.

These figures are also standing at around 2 million less than the same stage of the competition this time last year.
