Sharon Osbourne hates Courtney Love because she allegedly gave her son Jack prescription drugs when he was just 15.
The 'X Factor' star says she will never speak to the former Hole singer again for introducing Jack to the highly addictive painkiller OxyContin.
Sharon said in an interview with Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "I will never have time for Courtney Love. She was the first person to give my son Jack the prescription drug OxyContin. There's not a shadow of doubt in my mind about that. My dislike towards her is very personal.
"I'm not saying Jack wouldn't have taken it if she hadn't given it to him, but I'm appalled that an adult mother would give that to a 15-year-old boy. How could she do that to someone else's child? I haven't had a row with her, but I will never talk to her."
Jack, now 21, struggled with drink and drugs problems and was admitted to a child psychiatric ward for addiction to OxyContin in 2003.
After ten days, Jack was transferred to rehab and has been drug-free ever since.
Love, 43, is not the only star outspoken Sharon dislikes.
She said of Madonna: "I dislike her. She annoys me. I've met her a few times and found her very cold and very rude. She's annoyed me for years though, way before all the buying a baby thing."
Last year, Madonna adopted 23-month-old David Banda from Malawi amid claims she had used her celebrity status to bypass the country's usual adoption procedures.
