Brian McFadden backs Sharon Osbourne for Nine's Australia's Got Talent Sharon Osbourne will "create headlines" as a judge on Nine's Australia's Got Talent. (AP Photo/Matt Sayles) Source: AP BRIAN McFadden has thrown his support behind Australia's Got Talent's reported new judge Sharon Osbourne. Brian McFadden left Australia's Got Talent last year before it switched from Channel 7 to Channel 9. Osbourne, 60, is reportedly the first judge on the reboot. "Sharon's great," McFadden said. She's America's Got Talent and now Australia's Got Talent. She's is the queen of the Got Talent brand. She's a great catch. And she'll make plenty of headlines. Ros Reines: Brian McFaddden has over-stayed his welcome Fanny, tit, arse, vagina and the F-bomb: Sharon Osbourne Sharon Osbourne labelled world's most evil Those were the days - Seven's Australia's Got Talent judges, Kyle Sandilands, Dannii Minogue and Brian McFadden. The Irish musician said he hoped Channel 9 don't fill the judging seats with imports. I've heard all these international names like Lily Allen being bandied around but I really do hope they get a great Australian judge on the panel. They need an Australian icon like Molly. Kylie would be great. Imagine a panel with Molly and Kylie be. Or if they couldn't do it maybe Richard Wilkins or Eddie McGuire. McFadden is in the midst of a UK tour supporting Ronan Keating - the first time McFadden has performed in the UK for seven years. One good thing about not being on Australia's Got Talent is that it's let me go back and do music again. If I was doing AGT now I couldn't be on tour and this is my real love, singing to an audience, making music. I'm more comfortable in front of a live audience than a TV camera. I enjoy TV, but music's my No.1 right now. I probably will do TV again if the right thing came along, but I won't do it just for the sake of doing it. When I come back to Australia I won't be hosting a gardening show or anything like that.
