Kelly Osbourne had a pregnancy scare at 13


Kelly Osbourne is out and about promoting World Contraception Day, talking about how she has a sexual health check up several times a year, and revealing that she had a pregnancy scare at 13.

Kelly said: “I convinced myself I was pregnant when I was 13 and I hadn’t even got my period.

“There are so many rumours and also so much wrong information being passed around, so it is a really important message the World Contraception Day is trying to give out.”

Kelly - an ambassador for World Contraception Day - also revealed she gets tested for sexually transmitted infections every three months.

The 23-year-old admitted having unprotected sex in the past and has the tests for her own peace of mind

Kelly, who is currently dating model Luke Worrall, said: “I am not the kind of person who talks about my sex life, but I am not afraid to talk about contraception.

“I go three, maybe four times a year to get tested for sexually transmitted infections and most of the time I don’t even need to. I just go for peace of mind.”

Kelly was sexually active at 13? Is there any way for me to lock up my children until they’re 25, I am absolutely not ready to parent adolescents!

Kelly made the comments when out promoting World Contraception Day, and this story suggests to me that maybe her parents weren’t ready to raise children and possibly would have been good candidates for said contraceptives. Kelly seems to have worked herself out now, but shouldn’t she have a parent working out that she was sexually active before she even started puberty, and sitting down for a chat about the birds and the bees?

Admittedly, if you had Ozzy Osbourne explain anything to you, you’re likely to walk away more confused than when you started. And I shudder to think of the vulgarities Sharon would have used to explain the process, which alone might have worked as a contraceptive.

Kelly Osbourne slaps reporter in the face


Kelly Osbourne seems to be outdoing her mother in the disgusting behavior department. While Sharon seems to think that the word ‘f’ck’ serves as an adjective and verb, Kelly has recently spat in the face of a comedian after he called her fat and now she’s slapped a British reporter.

Reporter Zoe Griffin tells her side of the story here.

She began ear-bashing me about two lines in my column when I wrote her model boyfriend Luke Worrall had to ask friends how an earthquake was caused.

It was at that point Kelly shouted loudly in my ear: “I have an issue with you. My boyfriend knows what an earthquake is and everyone has been laughing at him and he’s upset.

“And then you take the piss out of my dad by saying he’s thick and he’s not.

“He’s like seriously clever.”

I could see the poor lass was getting her knickers in a right twist, so I said: “OK, look, I don’t want to fall out with you over this. If you want I could do something next week mentioning Luke’s achievements. Is he doing anything right now?’

But the livid party girl retorted: “I don’t have to explain myself to you.”

That’s when I felt a hard slap to my right cheekbone. I put my hand to my face while my friends looked on aghast.

I was in a state of shock. Not for long, though. Soon Kelly came rampaging back over with a female friend jabbing a finger in the air, telling me that I’d have to watch my back if I shared my story with readers of this column.

Mirror

The reporter here, Zoe Griffin, seems to be a complete bitch (for a start, is it unreasonable to ask what causes an earthquake?) but the Mirror has run stories in the past describing Kelly as being funny, down-to-earth and genuine. Despite the fact that at the time she was spouting four-letter-words about how you can’t criticize her boyfriend or family.

If this story is true than it is the second time that Kelly has attacked a Mirror journalist (once verbally, once physically) about the one set of remarks about her family. Zoe says that Kelly hit her hard enough to make her head snap back, and I don’t are what anyone writes about your family, you don’t hit them. If for no other reason than it makes you the bad guy, instead of the person that leveled the insult, and draws more attention to the whole incident.

Sharon Osbourne says Paris Hilton has no talent

You could never accuse any of the Osbourne family of mincing words. Least of all fearsome matriarch Sharon. Though I’m not sure exactly what she thinks her own talent credentials are, Sharon has sent a mild insult Paris Hilton’s way, noting to Parade magazine that she “has no talent.” Which sound like more than a mild insult, but Sharon manages to say it in a way that is almost gentle, at least for an Osbourne.

America’s Got Talent judge Sharon Osbourne says Paris Hilton would never wind up on the hit NBC show.

Why? “She has no talent!” Osbourne, 55, tells Parade.com. “I’m sure Paris would tell you that herself.”

The only thing going for the 27-year-old heiress?

“She’s got a look that a lot of younger girls liked and copied,” Osbourne says.

Hilton managed to gain fame because “the timing was right for her,” Osbourne adds. “A lot of younger women looked up to her. She’s a very sweet, nice girl. But that’s it. Then you put a full stop. It’s over. So I’d say Paris is infamous.”

[From Us Magazine]

Paris supposedly dated Sharon’s son Jack (I think it was alluded to once or twice on their MTV show) and has occasionally hung out with daughter Kelly. But I don’t think they’re all that friendly anymore. Sharon is obviously completely correct – Paris has no talent. Except perhaps for branding herself. She’s done a good job of turning that wonky face of hers into a near-industry.

Here’s Paris Hilton shopping and reading her own book on June 28th. At least she knows how it ends. Header of Sharon Osbourne in Beverly Hills on July 18th. Images thanks to Fame.

Sharon Osbourne fires off angry emails after comic calls daughter Kelly fat

I walk a fine line between loving and hating the Osbourne family. Luckily they’ve lost much of their appeal in the U.S. so I don’t have to think about them a lot anymore. On the one hand, I think they’re loud and tacky and rude. On the other, I appreciate that they stand up for each other and seem to have a close bond, albeit an unusual one. Matriarch Sharon Osbourne went off on comedian Jim Jeffries, telling him in an email exchange to “fuck off” after he called daughter Kelly fat and implied she was ugly.

The feisty matriarch - who has a penchant for firing off poison-pen letters to those who dare cross her - sent a scathing email to Jim Jeffries, telling him to ‘f*** off’. Potty-mouthed Aussie comic Jim clashed swords with Kelly during this year’s inaugural NME Awards USA. But he has now revealed the fallout from daring to criticise the Osbourne clan - even in jest - and the frank and hilarious exchange of emails between him and Sharon.

He was presenting awards in April and had made a joke to Kelly that she wasn’t as attractive as Agyness Deyn, who had just left the stage. The 23-year-old responded with a string of expletives, to which Jim replied drily: ‘I think she’d be famous even if she wasn’t Ozzy’s daughter - she’s that good.’

Kelly then spat in his face (charming). If that wasn’t enough retribution, Jim said: ‘I thought that would be the end of it but I got an email from Sharon which said, ‘Dear Nobody. Wait until you’re a celebrity before you criticise REAL celebrities. Why don’t you f*** off ‘.’ But Jim hit back by replying: ‘Dear Sharon. After you had all that plastic surgery and had the fat sucked out of your thighs, why did you pump it into your daughter’s face?’

[From the Daily Mail]

Jeffries shared the emails at a gig last night. Frankly I don’t think anyone comes off that well here. Jeffries sounds like a jerk for saying what he said in the first place. Especially in front of an audience. Kelly comes off as disgusting for spitting in his face. The cursing I can understand; in this particular case I’d say it was appropriate. But spitting… not so much.

And Sharon Osbourne could try broadening her vocabulary beyond her traditional 30 words. In fact what she said would have a lot more impact if she didn’t speak that way all the time. As it is, it’s pretty easy to brush her off. And to be fair, Kelly is definitely not fat, though she does have a very round face.

Osbournes get Variety show on FOX


This morning we covered the story that Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are pitching their own variety show, which they envision as a modern version of Sonny and Cher’s show. Now comes news that the Osbournes have signed a deal with FOX for a six episode variety show starring Sharon and Ozzy and their two more publicity-seeking children, Jack and Kelly. Variety reports that it will be a throwback to 70s variety shows like Sonny and Cher and Donny and Marie. It will include audience participation skits, comedy, and gameshow-type elements. This could either be a mish mash or they might be able to pull it off if it’s well produced. It will be produced by James Sunderland, who is an executive producer on the show Sharon is a judge for, “America’s Got Talent,” and it’s planned for a Christmastime release:

Mike Darnell, Fox’s prexy of alternative programming, envisions the show as something of a throwback to the heyday of variety skeins such as CBS’ 1970s staple “The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour” and ABC’s “Donny and Marie.”

The plan is to blend musical perfs by the Osbournes and others with comedy sketches as well as gameshow, audience participation and out-of-studio taped elements. One idea being kicked around is for a segment dubbed “The Osbournes Meet the Osbournes,” in which Ozzy and Co. spend time with another Osbourne clan, Darnell said.

“We’ve been talking about how to renew the variety show concept and make it feel new for years now,” Darnell said. Deal came together quickly in the past two weeks as Fremantle circulated a DVD to major nets with comedy bits featuring the family and other prototype elements. Multiple nets bid on the show, but it landed at Fox in part because Sharon Osbourne and Darnell hit it off and had similar visions for the show.

Darnell hopes to launch the series, which will be shot in Los Angeles, with a Christmas special. The emphasis on music and performance would seem to make the show a natural companion for “American Idol,” but Darnell said any skedding talk was premature.

Eugene Young, chief creative officer for FremantleMedia North America, said the show would “tap into what the Osbournes do best, which is be themselves.”

Some segments will include the former Black Sabbath frontman “skewering pop culture,” while others will “tap into the sibling rivalry” between 23-year-old Kelly and 22-year-old Jack, Young said.

[From Variety via Huffington Post]

I liked Sharon Osbourne’s talk show, and maybe I’m the only one because it was canceled after one season in 2003, but I think she’s fun and can keep the show moving. Ozzy mumbles a lot and is hard to understand, but maybe if he sticks to performing and hanging around he’ll do fine. Kelly is a decent singer and had that “Papa Don’t Preach” cover as well as an album. She also appeared in the London production of musical Chicago.

I would watch one episode of this to give it a try. The Osbournes are going to have to control their swearing though or there’s going to be a lot of bleeping and editing required. That gets old quickly so they hopefully have enough other entertainment to make it worth watching.

Sharon Osbourne And Courtney Love Take Their Fued To The Lawyers

spx-012068.jpg

As we reported earlier, Sharon Osbourne and Courtney love are feuding about who’s fault it is that Jack Osbourne was addicted to drugs. Did Courtney give him drugs? Should former Mother-of-the-Year Sharon have taught him to ‘Just say no’? The fur flies.

“I never did that. I would never give drugs to a teenager. F— you, Sharon - as if I would ever give drugs to a teenager,” Love fired back recently, reported Spinner.com.

Osbourne has thrown another punch, telling the New York Daily News, “I’m glad she 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 war started in September when Osbourne told the Daily Mirror:

“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,” Osbourne continued. “I’m not saying Jack wouldn’t have taken it if she hadn’t given it to him, but I’m appalled that an adult mother would give that to a 15-year-old boy. How could she do that to someone else’s child?”

Daily Telegraph

Unfortunately we’re not going to be hearing anymore of this cat fight for a while – at least not until the matter goes to court.

And now Osbourne admits she can no longer talk about her bitter feelings for Love: “It’s kind of got to the point where it’s now in legal hands, so we can’t talk about it, because it’s gone to that stage.”

antiMusic

What is the legal issue here? Is Sharon going to try and prove that Courtney did addict her son, or is Courtney going to sue for defamatory remarks? Is Sharon using the legal excuse as a way of getting out of talking about this issue? Is she going to make Courtney pay for her son’s rehab? Are Courtney and Sharon actually the same person and someone has made the court case up so we can see them in the same room?

I must be great to be the kind of lawyer that represents these petty disputes. You don’t have any moral or ethical issues that you might if, for example, you had to defend a murderer. You can also laugh at your clients silly, petty fight while taking home a paycheck, providing they don’t catch you at it. The only issue I can see is how you might feel about taking money from someone so stupid. It’s kind of like stealing.

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne have a suicide pact

spx-008809.jpg

All relationships have their quirks. The beauty is that most relationships are private, and the quirks stay between the couple. For example no one would ever want to know that my ex-boyfriend and I had nauseatingly cute nicknames for each other involving woodland creatures. And no one would ever want to know that Ozzie and Sharon Osbourne have a suicide pact. Yep, if one of them kicks it, the other is supposed to swallow a vat of poison and join them in the beyond. Alright they weren’t detailed enough to specify poison, but that seems the way they’d go.

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne have agreed on a suicide pact - so they can both die at the same time. Rock matriarch Sharon, who is also Ozzy’s manager, has revealed she and her husband agree they cannot live without each other, and so they’ve chosen to go to the grave together.

She explains: “Whatever it was, where you know you’re going to die, we would want to choose the time where we want to leave. I would go with my old man, and he would come with me… (Fortunately) my husband is better than ever, health-wise.”

But the macabre suicide pact doesn’t kick in until 2012, with busy Sharon adding she can’t contemplate taking her life “in the next five years”.

[From Ireland Online]

Um… good for you? I never know what to say in these kinds of situation. Whenever someone tells you they have a suicide pact, it’s always so awkward. First there’s the revelation, and then there’s you trying to act like you’re supportive and non-judgmental, and then you have to tell them that’s great but you don’t swing that way… wait that’s all for coming out of the closet. How does one tell others they have a suicide pact? Well I guess if you’re anything like the Osbournes (and what couple isn’t, at least a little bit?) then you go on “Extra” for that explicit purpose. Can anyone say “attention starved?” Maybe it’s time to put Ozzie back on the pills and let him shuffle down Hollywood Boulevard. Compassionate? No. But probably a little more fun than a suicide pact.

Courtney Love Hits Back At Sharon Osbourne


Courtney Love has hit back at claims she introduced Jack Osbourne to drugs, and goes as far to suggest that it was Jack introducing her to OxyContin.

She fumed: “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.”

Love, 43, claims she had never seen or heard of OxyContin until she had met Jack.

She added: “It was the first time I was ever introduced to the pills.”

Earlier this month, Sharon claimed Love was to blame for her son’s addiction to painkillers.

She 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.”

New Zealand Herald

To me, it seems that the person responsible for Jack Osbourne’s drug addiction is probably Jack Osbourne himself. Even if you are a celebrity child, you must have seen an after school special. Or Dawson’s Creek. Or something that tells you ‘just say no to drugs.’ I can just imagine Jack coming home high on drugs and saying “But mom, Courtney Love gave them to me. They must be okay.”

Of course, Sharon Osbourne might have kept her mouth shut if she knew that Courtney hasn’t entirely mended her crazy ways. This week she - accidently - ripped Kate Moss’ $4,000 Dior dress at a London Fashion Week show. Be careful Sharon, Courtney isn’t afraid of ruining your couture, and making it look like an accident.

Does Sharon Osbourne Want to Pick A Fight?


Sharon Osbourne seems to have disappeared lately, going to the United Kingdom to host X-Factor, an talent quest with Dannii Minogue and Mr Idol himself Simon Cowell. In case you aren’t familiar with the format, as far as I can tell it’s identical to American Idol.

The new season of X-Factor started recently and Sharon has been doing some interviews to support it, in whch she tries her best to take the bitch crown from Simon Cowell’s head.

‘I do dislike Madonna,’ Sharon tells the Daily Mirror.

‘She annoys me. I’ve met her a few times and found her very cold and very rude.

‘She’s annoyed me for years…way before all the “buying a baby” thing.’

Now Magazine

Not only does she dislike Madonna, she doesn’t seem too impressed with Courtney Love either.

“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.

“I’m not saying Jack wouldn’t have taken it if she hadn’t given it to him, but I’m appalled that an adult mother would give that to a 15-year-old boy. How could she do that to someone else’s child? I haven’t had a row with her, but I will never talk to her.”

Monsters and Critics

I guess she doesn’t want to risk her Mum-of-the-Year crown by admitting she forgot to teach her son to say no to drugs. I’m kidding here, even great parents have kids that go off the rails. Sharon does seem to love her kids and keep them close, which is lucky as she’s feuding with everyone else in her family it seems. In this interview, she admits a period of not talking to her dad, and not speaking to her maternal side of the family. The interview was given in response to her brother David Arden’s claims that she hates Simon Cowell and Dannii Minogue, which Sharon denies. Her brother also claims she chose a different grave for her father than the one he requested.

“My brother said dad wanted to be buried in a churchyard in Surrey with my mum. But although he came back into my life in 2002 when Alzheimer’s had started to take hold, he never once told me that.

“Dad was a Jew and his sister, nephew and girlfriend all insisted he wanted to be buried in a Jewish cemetery in his hometown. So who was I to believe - my brother or three other people?

“The reason I didn’t go to his funeral was because I couldn’t bear to have one side of the family staring daggers at the other over his coffin.

“I couldn’t win. Instead I paid for it all and stayed away. I’ll be there for the head stone laying ceremony in November.

“But I’ll never visit my mum’s grave. I’d be the world’s biggest hypocrite if I did because I didn’t like her and didn’t communicate with her.”

Daily Mail

Sharon does seem capable of picking a fight with anyone, and is definitely not talking to her brother right now. Then again, if husband Ozzy Osbourne is as vague as he comes across on The Osbournes, there would be no satisfaction in fighting with him.
