Celebrity Big Brother reunited former X Factor judges and pals Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh as they both entered the house during Monday's star-studded launch.

However viewers were left distracted and branded the pair, both 71, 'unreogniable' before suggesting they may had been replaced by doppelgängers almost a decade after their X Factor exits.

Sharon has not been shy about sharing her history of plastic surgery in the past and more recently said she regretted losing 'too much' weight using diet drug Ozempic.

Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one said: 'Sharon looked awful with her weight loss. Looking like a china doll. Maybe it's not even her'.

While a second wrote: 'Omg, Louis and Sharon look terrible'.

Someone else commented: 'I'm not sure Louis will even recognise Sharon with her new face'.

And: 'Why does my brain hurt when I look at Sharon? She doesn't look the same'.

While another commented: 'I'm obsessed with Sharon Osbourne and her new face'.

With someone else quipping: 'Louis looks like he forgot to put his teeth in'.

Music manager Sharon appeared on the first four series of The X Factor from 2004 to 2007, the 10th series in 2013, and the 13th and 14th series from 2016 to 2017, with Louis starring alongside her.

It comes after fans went wild when Sharon was tasked with a 'brutal' secret mission within minutes of entering the iconic house during Monday's launch.

She had only just arrived when Big Brother's announced she would be choosing which other housemate would be up for the first eviction.

Sharon was told how her role as on the X Factor would come in handy and she would be judging her fellow celebs, choosing the three who should face the public vote.

Louie was branded 'unrecognisable' by fans

The Osbourne matriarch was more than happy with the task and soon Louis also entered to help her make her decision.

As the duo were whisked off to a secret layer to watch the other stars enter, viewers at home took to X, formerly Twitter, loving the show's early twist.

One wrote: 'Secret task already??! This is well brutal'.

While a second said: 'A secret mission already lol. Of course'.

Someone else added: 'Sharon Osbourne the first person into the house! Secret mission already begun'.

And: 'the live launch secret mission returns'.
