So it looks like X Factor 2007 is going to be more about how much the judges can squeal abuse at each other than how well any of the contestants can sing, thanks to Sharon Osbourne flouncing around in a tizzy on Saturday night.

But, really, who can blame her? Personally we think that Sharon Osbourne only started frothing around like a mad lord because she knew X Factor would have been cripplingly substandard without it. We blame the lack of a celebrity guest for this – X Factor is always much better when it pays a famous singer to look anguished because 12 different numpties have mangled their most famous songs in 12 different buttock-clenching ways. Sure, Leona Lewis was last week’s X Factor celebrity guest, but making the contestants perform 12 different versions of Bleeding Love would have sent even the most loyal X Factor viewer barmy. Just Leona’s version alone is driving us a bit mental, and we’ve only heard it twice.

Anyway, here are the X Factor betting odds for Leon Jackson, Andy Williams, Daniel De Bourg and Rhydian Roberts, with betting odds from Paddy Power…
