MUSIC mogul Louis Walsh is set to quit Celebrity Big Brother after his friend Sharon Osbourne left the house.
It comes after he sparked a war of words with Irish pop artist Jedward – whose manager he was – branding the identical twins “vile”.

The brothers hit back, calling him a “cold-hearted pi****”.
Insiders said Louis, 71, has made it clear he won’t sign up for the show without Sharon by his side, making it more likely he will now leave.
But the former X Factor judge and music manager will still receive the full fee for the ITV show.
A source said: “Louis would only go on the show if Sharon was booked there with him. CBB did their best to make it happen.
“They know that Louis is a flight risk now that Sharon is gone and no one would be surprised if he left. Louis will still get his full fee, so he has nothing to lose.
“He will be lost without Sharon because they have such a close friendship in the house.
“Everyone is wary that Louis might throw in the towel, but he makes such good television, the producers are praying he stays.”
Another source told The Sun Louis’ fee was around £250,000 – half of what Sharon, 71, was paid for her week-long stay.
Louis — who created boybands Boyzone and Westlife — caused shock waves with his antics in the house, including labeling singer Ronan Keating — who he also managed — a “s**t”.
His removal from Jedward on Tuesday prompted an angry response from the twins – who happened to be enjoying dinner and a hot tub at the home of celebrity friend Gemma Collins.

They said: “Louis Walsh is a cold-hearted friend who didn’t even send us flowers when our mum died.”
John and Edward Grimes, both 32, added: “Louis Walsh was banging and talking about us with our best friend Tara Reid and then we fired him!

“Girls Aloud hate Louis!
“Jedward hates Louis!
“Ronan Keating hates Louis!
“All future works should be familiar with what this EVIL man really is.”
Sharon — who was met by daughter Kelly as she left the CBB house — also went on a rampage on the show, saying she was “furious” at Simon Cowell after she turned down a job on The Masked Singer when she was promised X Factor US.
She said: “I missed the big show.
“But it’s Simon. He interrupts you.
“He doesn’t know how to keep friends.”
