- Mar 11, 2015
AceShowbiz - Kelly Osbourne finally broke her silence on her abrupt departure from "Fashion Police" when she appeared on "The Talk", which her mother Sharon Osbourne co-hosted, on Tuesday, March 10. "You know what, it was the five best working years of my life," she said when asked how she felt after leaving the E! show.
Without mentioning the reason of her exit, the purple-haired singer-songwriter/fashion designer added, "I am so grateful for the experience - working with Joan Rivers for five years was incredible. I learned so much and I'm excited for my future. I want to try new things."
Kelly left "Fashion Police" after co-host Giuliana Rancic made a racist joke about Zendaya Coleman's Oscars look. Giuliana said the former "Shake It Up" star's dreadlocks smelled like "patchouli oil... or maybe weed."
Kelly then threatened to quit the show, tweeting, "I DID NOT MAKE THE WEED COMENT. I DO NOT CONDONE RACISM SO AS A RSULT OF THIS IM SEREIOULSY QUESTIONONIG STAYING ON THE SHOW!"
E! Entertainment confirmed Kelly's departure on February 27, although Giuliana had apologized for the racist remark and Zendaya accepted it. No replacement for Kelly has been announced, but some names including Khloe Kardashian, Amber Rose, NeNe Leakes, Chrissy Teigen and Naya Rivera have been rumored in contention for the job.
