Sharon Osbourne will be replacing R&B singer Brandy as one of the judges this summer on “America’s Got Talent” which premieres May 29th. Brandy’s rep said she’s stepping down to focus on other matters; she is currently facing two wrongful death lawsuits after her SUV rear-ended a woman in December.

Sharon currently judges a similar British talent competition called “The X-Factor”. Both talent shows are executive produced by Simon Cowell. David Hasselhoff and Piers Morgan are both returning as judges on the show and this season it will be hosted by Jerry Springer.

(Having Jerry host pretty much guarantees I won’t be watching.)
