Sharon Osbourne made a surprise appearance at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, where she delighted fans by recreating one of the most iconic auditions from her time on The X Factor. A fan at the concert asked Sharon to mimic Rachel Lester’s infamous audition, where the singer boldly declared she was “10/10” and “better than Madonna.”
Sharon, known for her sharp wit, obliged, creating a moment that quickly went viral. However, while the reenactment sparked laughter, it was Sharon’s appearance in the clip that left many fans in shock.
Social media quickly erupted with comments about Sharon’s transformed look, with many barely recognizing her. “Did she get fillers?” one fan asked, while others expressed confusion, asking, “Who is she?” and “What happened to her face?”
The reaction highlighted just how drastically Sharon’s appearance has changed, with some fans even questioning, “You’re joking that’s Sharon 😳” and “Sharon, what happened??” The discussion around her look overshadowed what might have otherwise been a lighthearted moment.
Despite the focus on her appearance, Sharon’s true fans couldn’t help but celebrate the throwback moment. “Sharon Osbourne recreating The X Factor Rachel audition at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour is a fun throwback moment—what a way to mix iconic moments in music and entertainment!” one fan exclaimed, while another marveled, “Does she know how iconic this is?!”
For those who have followed Sharon’s career, this blend of nostalgia and humor was a reminder of why she remains a beloved figure in pop culture.
Fans are buzzing after Blake Lively stepped out with her co-star for the premiere of their new movie, sparking a wave of comments about how the two actresses look nearly “identical.” From their outfits to their strikingly similar features, people can’t stop pointing out one particular detail that makes them look like twins.
Typhoon Kong-rey Has One of Largest Eyes Ever Seen: ‘Absolutely Massive’
Ameteorologist has pointed out the sheer size of Typhoon Kong-rey’s eye as the massive storm approached Taiwan on Wednesday.
As of Wednesday afternoon, Typhoon Kong-rey had maximum sustained winds of 130 mph, according to the website Zoom Earth. The storm has weakened slightly since Tuesday night, when it was categorized as a super typhoon with maximum sustained winds of 150 mph, equivalent to a Category 4 hurricane. Forecasts anticipate that Typhoon Kong-rey will weaken further by the time it makes landfall in Kaohsiung in the early morning hours on Thursday.
On Tuesday night, meteorologist Noah Bergren of TV station WOFL in Orlando, Florida, commented on the size of the storm’s eye.
“Super Typhoon Kong-rey is easily one of the largest eye’s in a major tropical system you will ever see on Earth,” Bergren posted on X (formerly Twitter). “Thing is absolutely massive.”

AccuWeather senior meteorologist Alan Reppert told Newsweek that having a large eye doesn’t necessarily imply anything about the storm’s strength.
“It just means the winds with it are farther away from the center than if it was a smaller eye,” he said. “It doesn’t necessarily have any major defining characteristic of the storm.”
Reppert added that a stronger storm that’s been around longer usually has a wider eye than a newer storm.
Most spaghetti models—or computer models illustrating potential storm paths—show Kong-rey making landfall on Taiwan’s southeast coast and cutting across the island before emerging with maximum sustained winds of around 75 mph. Models indicate that the typhoon will exhibit a northeastern turn away from China, which will take it out to the East China Sea.
Kong-rey’s strength is uncharacteristic for this time of year, The New York Times reported, adding that the typhoon is expected to make landfall equivalent to a Category 4 hurricane.
Reppert warned that strong winds up to 140 mph with higher gusts could hit southern Taiwan, though the storm is expected to weaken as it moves over the island. An AccuWeather report warned of “significant structural damage, mudslides and landslides” from the storm, as up to 3 feet of rain is expected to lash Taiwan. The storm could either maintain its intensity or strengthen before it makes landfall early Thursday.
Eastern China and Japan also are expecting heavy rain as the storm progresses.
A typhoon is classified as a severe tropical cyclone occurring in the Northwest Pacific. A hurricane is the term for the same type of storm in the Northeast Pacific and Northern Atlantic. Outside of these regions, the storms are called tropical cyclones.
