Just because nobody knows who'll be the finalists in this year's X Factor, it doesn't mean that we haven't got any X Factor betting odds for you yet – in fact we've got a bunch of doozies.

Because – let's face it – nobody cares who wins X Factor this year. The winner of X Factor will just about scrape a Christmas number one with whatever bland crap Simon Cowell gives them to sing, then they'll spend so long working on an album that everyone will forget who they are and never buy anything with their name on it again. Instead, the fun of X Factor comes in two forms: 1) Watching a bunch of young hopefuls getting their dreams smashed into pieces by remorseless millionaires and 2) Watching the X Factor judges act like dickheads. And today's special X Factor betting is all about the chances of one of the judges to act in a particularly dickheadish way.

Here are the X Factor betting odds for Sharon Osbourne to fall off her chair drunk…

Sharon Osbourne to fall off her chair drunk – Sharon Osbourne? Drunk on TV? Now, we think that this one is a bit far-fetched – as dreadful a person as Sharon Osbourne undoubtedly is, we're fairly sure that she's not dumb enough to get even a little bit drunk for X Factor, let alone drunk enough to slide off her chair on live TV, snorting like boozy cattle. True, we have to get wrecked on booze just to stop us lashing out at our TV each and every time Sharon Osbourne opens her big patronising mouth, but that doesn't mean that Sharon has to as well. Having said that, Sharon Osbourne did act a bit drunk on last season's X Factor, whether it was coming onto Shayne Ward like a sherried-up auntie at a wedding reception, throwing a glass of water over Louis Walsh like a sherried-up auntie at a wedding reception or suddenly reflecting on the death of Princess Diana and instantly killing the mood of proceedings like a sherried-up auntie at our 22nd birthday party. Unlikely, then, but just imagine how much it'd rule if it happened. Current X Factor betting odds – 20/1 

Tomorrow – Last year's X Factor finalists to win this year?
