Sharon calls Courtney a 'has been' and a 'virus'

The mud-slinging between Sharon Osbourne and Courtney Love continued today with reports that Osbourne called Love a “has been”.

Perezhilton.com reports that Osbourne said “I’m glad [Courtney Love] doesn’t like me. I only pity her. She’s a virus. I don’t want her anywhere near people I love. The cold hard fact is she’s a has-been,”

The pair became embroiled in a media-slanging match last month after Osbourne accused Love of giving her son Jack Osbourne drugs.

Osbourne blamed Love for her son’s addiction to painkillers, including the drug OxyContin and reportedly said "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.”

Love denied giving the teenager drugs saying "I never did that. I would never give drugs to a teenager. F**k you Sharon - as if I would ever give drugs to a teenager."

Jack Osbourne received treatment for his drug addition in 2003.
