Sharon Osbourne's Got Talent: How She Looks Good and Feels Great

Sharon Osbourne is contemplating leaving Ozzie.

Crazy question: What if she had to move in with one of her "America's Got Talent" costars – Piers Morgan, Howie Mandel or Nick Cannon?

She's happy to compare and contrast.

"Nick is a great catch, but I think Mariah would beat the sh—out of me," says the 58-year-old. Of course, Cannon is happily married to the pop princess Mariah Carey and the proud father of new twins.

Moving along. 

"Piers is funny," she says. "He has that dry sense of humor, but his wife is pregnant right now. I wouldn't want to upset her by moving in," Sharon says.

"As for Howie," she mulls over, "He wouldn't want to touch me. So, it wouldn't be fun!

"So, I would probably stick with my husband, Ozzie," she cries.

Calling from her Los Angeles home on a weekday afternoon, Sharon is in the middle of doing her talk show "The Talk" and the new season of "America's Got Talent," which airs on NBC tonight.

 "I am the oldest on the show, so I'm the mother hen. That's something that comes with age. So I will gladly take on that title," Sharon says.

"Maybe it's experience more than age that makes me the mother hen," she adds. "When the younger contestants are on, I know it takes so much courage to get up there and perform. I always think, 'Oh my God, if that was my kid up there how would I want them treated by a judge?'

"I think of them as my kids – and you have to be very, very careful with kids," she says.

HER SPOT ON BEAUTY SECRETS

Two shows. Two trips to the makeup chair.

Ask for her beauty secrets and Sharon just laughs, "Oh my God, no!" she cries. "I wish I did have beauty secrets.

"I'm overweight by about 25 pounds. I don't workout. I had a great surgeon," Sharon rattles off without a hint of apology.

"I suppose the face has lasted pretty good," she says.

She's even known to leave the house without any makeup at all. Her daily fashion statement can be a pair of worn jeans, a white shirt, and a black leather jacket.

"I like to keep it simple and keep the fuss to a minimum," says the woman who lost 100 pounds thanks to gastric band surgery.

Most important to her is the fact that she is actually here to experience every fine line. In 2002, she was diagnosed with colon cancer.

She survived the disease, which was documented on her show "The Osbournes."

The fact that she is a cancer survivor impacts her every single day. "It did change my life," she says. "It stopped me from being so selfish and thinking the business I work in is the most important thing in the world.

"It's not," she says.

"In the big picture, it's a tiny grain of sand," she says.

"When you work with people who dedicate their lives to saving others, you realize that we're very unimportant," she says. "I know doctors and nurses who are here every single moment to help other people. It makes you feel very small." 

RUMOR PATROL AND A LIFE LESSON
Sharon, the mom of two grown kids, is happy to concentrate to her career now. She does shoot down various rumors including that she will soon star on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills."

"Oh God, you'll never see me on 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,'" she insists. "I've never been a housewife. Ever!

"From the age of 15, I've always worked," she says. "I've never been a woman who spent her days deciding, 'Am I going to go for a facial or a pedicure?' And that is the amount of her day."

She says one lesson that has come with age is to not to juggle so much at one time. Right now, she's balancing "America's Got Talent" and "The Talk" plus scads of other projects, Ozzie and the kids.

How does she balance it all?

"I don't," she says. "I mess up on a lot of things," Sharon says.

"You think you can handle it all and you learn that you can't. Certain things fall through."

She has a lesson for midlifers. "I'm going to review my next year. Everyone should do it," she says. "I definitely packed it too tight this year. You can't do all things at the same level. Something has to give."

FUTURE PERFECT

Right now, she's focusing on "America's Got Talent."

 "I'm definitely harder on the talent than I've been in previous years," she says of this season. "I'm feeling more comfortable in that position of being a little more judgmental. I'm about making it about the talent and not someone's life story."

Then again……

She says one of her favorite contestants survived an amazing challenge. "We had a lady a few seasons ago on the show who survived cancer. She said her dream was to sing," Osbourne says. "She came in second or third. But that didn't matter.

"She was a great inspiration for anyone who has ever had a dream."

As she heads toward 60 does Osbourne have a few dreams in her designer bag?

"I still think I'm a work in progress. More than anything, I want to be a better person," she says.

"As far as my personal goals in life, I've reached them all," she says. "I've had amazing life experiences. I'm blessed.

"But I can still strive to be better," she says.
