CELEBRITY Big Brother fans are convinced Sharon Osbourne is faking her stay in the house after spotting a clue in tonight’s show.

The X Factor star, 71, has her own private sleeping quarters as a special house guest and is allowed to snooze for as long as she likes.

But viewers grew suspicious when all that could be seen of Sharon in her bed was a messy mop of red hair.

It led some to speculate whether or not it was actually her underneath the sheets.

One wrote on X: “That could be anyone in that bed Is Sharon actually sleeping in the house?”

Another said: “sharon is still asleep” and it’s just a shot of her hair poking out the top PFTTTTTTT.”

Accusations of ‘favouritism’ have been flying around and some joked she was the ultimate ‘old school diva’.

Sharon is only scheduled to spend five days in the house after ITV failed to meet her wage demands.

Instead she’s coining in £100k-a-day before making an early exit.

Sharon explained her short stay is only so she can be with her husband, rocker Ozzy, 75, who has Parkinson’s disease.

She said: “I don’t want to stay away from Ozzy for too long.

“We’re so close as a family.

“I don’t think I have ever gone a week without talking to any of them, ever.”

So far she’s been in the thick of the action, deciding Kate Middleton’s uncle Gary Goldsmith, 58, will face eviction from the house this week.

She’s struck up a formidable partnership with her old pal Louis Walsh, and so far they haven’t been shy in critiquing their fellow housemates.

Ibiza Weekender David Potts was in their sights and tonight Sharon looked baffled by the reality star’s wardrobe choices.

The larger than life character loves showing his legs off by wearing tiny shorts instead of trousers.

Louis tried to explain “it’s his thing” but Sharon just looked bewildered.

She also told Gary that she didn’t believe his claims that he isn’t in the house for fame in a straight-talking one on one chat.

Sharon eventually rejoined the house at 12.40pm
