Fame Academy series 2

The Fame Academy House in Highgate has not been used since the end of the first Comic Relief Does Fame Academy series shown on BBC One in 2003 and had been on sale for £37 million before then.

Sharon Osbourne is reported to have turned down a GBP3 million offer to be a judge on the American version of Fame Academy as she refuses to spend more time away from her family who, she says, mean far more to her than money.
