Kelly Osbourne says she got heat for Trump comments because of Guiliana Rancic

Kelly Osbourne

Earlier this year, there was a huge controversy after Giuliana Rancic read what we now know was a scripted joke, which mocked Zendaya Coleman’s Oscar dreadlocks on E!’s Fashion Police. Fellow host Kelly Osbourne threw a fit, tweeted her angst, and threatened to quit. Giuliana issued a serious apology, which Zendaya had no problem accepting. Then we heard that Giuliana took the fall for the joke and didn’t want to make excuses. Kelly quit Fashion Police anyway, allegedly “to pursue other opportunities.” The inside buzz was that Kelly was pushed out because she acted bratty and badmouthed her colleague.

Kelly gave Giuliana such a hard time that I found it pretty rich when she cracked a “joke” on The View when reacting to Donald Trump’s immigration stance: “If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilet?” There was a swift backlash with Kelly throwing Rosie Perez under the bus, and somehow Rosie ended up apologizing. My take on this situation was that Kelly said what she felt in the heat of the moment, and the “joke” was her true feelings on the subject. And she really only got upset about the ‘locks joke because Zendaya is her friend.

Kelly, who cannot shut up, decided to talk about her Trump “joke” on the red carpet on Sunday. What could go wrong, right? Us Weekly said this happened:

The comment received plenty of backlash from several of Osbourne’s co-hosts on The View and on social media. On Sunday, Aug. 23, the lavender-haired TV personality addressed the criticism at the NYX Face Awards, telling Us Weekly of her negative responses, “Do you know why? Because of people like Giuliana Rancic.”

“Don’t blame me for other people’s mistakes. I wasn’t edited,” Osbourne told Us of her toilet-cleaning joke. “It wasn’t a premeditated attack. And if I watched it, I would hate me too. So I have no problem, and I would do whatever I have to, to make it right. But don’t compare me to her.”

She went on to note that her View segment was significantly edited down. “You can see that they cut me off,” Osbourne said. “You only saw a 6-second clip. When you watch the full episode, it’s a different story. But I’m not going to make up excuses because I don’t need to. I know who I am.”

Kelly never learns. After these comments, she walked right over to The Wrap and said, “I will never admit to liking Giuliana because I don’t. I don’t think she’s a good person and I think she’s a liar.” Now when Giuliana was asked about Kelly’s “joke,”, Giuliana said, “I don’t think I need to comment. I’ve got to take the high road on this.” That’s the right tactic. Kelly will talk herself into another hole, and she needs no assistance doing so.

    Kelly, ENOUGH.

    Damn!

    • Gea says:

      When this person Kelly will learn how to talk about people. She always goes on rampage when she dislikes somebody and its becoming old. How old is she? How come she thinks her opinion is worth off something. She never worked hard to be very she is today , another spoiled spawn, aimlessly barating people.

  3. The Original G says:

    Yeah, right, because we’re still thinking about you, Kelly.

  4. Santia says:

    No, Kelly got heat for her comments because of Kelly. What she said was no less inflammatory than the garbage Trump has spewed. I’m still seething that they made Rosie apologize to her.

  5. StormsMama says:

    Entitled rich girl with no charm or charisma and minimal talent as a talking head
    Shows her true ignorant self when she makes an appallingly racist and rude comment-
    And she doesn’t even have the wherewithal to get her sh*t together and plead ignorance and take a break to educate herself. Instead she clings to her pride bc nothing but her ego is at risk- she has a fortune to fall back on and “fame” that came from her family.
    Ugh I am DONE with this trick.

    • Shambles says:

      You said it all.

    • Manjit says:

      She is her mother’s daughter, that’s for sure. If education was as important to either/both of them as money and fame, then maybe they’d have opinions worth listening to. As it is they just go on and on and on showing the world what ignorant. charmless eejits they are.

      • sirsnarksalot says:

        And the only reason she has any career (and the tabloids stayed mum on her multiple overdoses) is because of Mommy Osborne. Self entitled brat.

      • CatFoodJunkie says:

        Not Mommy Osborne… she only became famous for being married to Daddy Osborne. Why either of these women have an audience is absolutely beyond me… what have they done, in this life or another, to think their opinion matters?? Why is anyone interested in them? Kelly… I think you forgot your other enormous mis-step: the use of the word Tranny, when spitting your anger at your ex for cheating on you with, gasp, a “tranny.” Clearly, she speaks her mind, and I believe she means what she says… she just backtracks when the public outcry reaches her precious little self. And, if she cleans her own toilets, as she has stated, I will write her a big fat check. I’m fairly middle-class, and I don’t clean my own toilets. It’s not a crime to have a housekeeper — but assuming they’re all latinas… that’s ignorant.

    • meme says:

      ^This. Talentless bratty celebuspawn.

      • Beatrice says:

        Great comment–A perfect summary in just three words!! I don’t want to see that lavender hair on my TV screen ever again.

    • Luca76 says:

      Yup this times 1000.

    • claire says:

      Can I just add on to that…can we stop making celebrities out of celebrity interviewers?!?!

  6. Narek says:

    “Tell me people am I going insane, insane.”

  7. Ally.M says:

    Typical spoilt celebrity spawn, never taking responsibility and blaming other people for their mistakes. Hopefully she’ll keep digging and eventually no-one will hire her.

  8. AlmondJoy says:

    Instead of admitting that something terrible came out of her mouth she chooses to pass the blame. How surprising.

  9. Nicolette says:

    Oh hush up already! You are only in the public eye because you are Ozzy’s daughter. Tired of riding his coat tails yet?

  10. stinky says:

    She is BEYOND vile.

  11. Skins says:

    Just go away……Now

  12. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    Kelly, Kelly, shut up. Your “explanation” doesn’t even make sense.

  13. georgia says:

    A crying cry baby crying is all I see

  14. cujokay says:

    She is relevant why? What does she DO? She’s just a semi cleaned-up Kardashian reality TV “personality.

  15. Moxie Remon says:

    She was always a loser anyway.

  16. Paris says:

    “Then who is going to clean your toilets?” girl needs to shut up!

  17. Jayna says:

    Yawn, Kelly. That’s all I’ve got for you.

  18. Greata says:

    Bitch…own your sh*t!

  19. Sea Dragon says:

    All I’m going to say is that Raven’s shabby chic curtain/drape thingy is strikingly pretty.

  20. stinky says:

    Raven looks like Nicole Richie in pic #2…

  21. db says:

    Yeah. I feel like Kelly’s grasping at straws at this point, willing to say anything that might somehow make her relevant. Fail.

  22. Tessd says:

    This is so fake – both her and Rancic are on the joke. They are doing this “hate” to keep themselves relevant.

  23. lucy2 says:

    Blaming someone who was not there and in no way part of the conversation? Yeah that makes sense.
    Kelly just needs to go. She’s gotten all she’s going to get out of family connections, and has never proven herself worthy of jobs in the spotlight on her own.

  24. kri says:

    what is this sh!t? Some low rent mime of a Tay Tay /Katy Perry feud? Both Rancic and Kelly are dum dums and it surprises me not at all that dum dums say dum dum things. Why are they still talking. STFU already.

  25. IfUSaySo says:

    Kelly and her mom and seriously the WORST! They are both fake, have no charisma, annoying and only famous because of Ozzy. Kelly annoys me most because she was BORN with everyting and then gets these TV jobs because of her controlling momager. They are just like the Kardashians except “goth.”

  26. Veronica Lodge says:

    Get a freaking job, Kelly! Go to school! Learn how the rest of the world functions, you ass-hat!

  27. Cheeky Squirrel says:

    As a Hispanic woman, the only description that suits her is “vomito de perro.”

  28. Linds says:

    What a little a**hole.

  29. Gia says:

    Jesus, what a spoiled, entitled, good for nothing, bitchy brat. Just apologize, own up to what you said – whether you meant it the way it came out or not – and move on. Don’t blame other people for your shortcomings as a human being.

  30. Tracy says:

    Sit down, Kelly. Just sit down.

  31. itsthisbitch says:

    God shes putrid. Shes a spoiled pug looking brat, and apparently can make racist jokes, but no one else can do it. Hypocrite.
