Sharon Growls At Kelly's New Man

Rock boss Sharon Osbourne has devised a bizarre way of greeting her teen daughter Kelly's new boyfriend - she growls at him.

Singer Kelly, 18, who once dated Used rocker Bert McCracken- also the target of hounds by Sharon and her shock-rocker husband Ozzy - admits she's now "seeing" someone whose identity she's opting to keep under wraps.

But the Shut Up! star's high level of discretion has failed to save her new beau from the wrath of her outspoken mother.

Kelly says, "Every time the guy comes in the room she growls at him and he just looks at her like she's a nutcase."

And Sharon herself admits she partakes in the unusual ritual, adding, "I opened the door of Kelly's bedroom the other day. He was sitting on the bed and I just went, 'Grrrrrrr!'"
