Sharon Osbourne Apologizes For Susan Boyle Comments

Sharon OsbourneIf you read my post on it last week or watched the news surely you heard about the insanely mean and unnecessary comments made by Sharon Osbourne when she appeared on Opie and Anthony’s radio show November 5th regarding Susan Boyle.

Amongst other things, Sharon had said:

“I like everybody to do well. Even somebody that looks like a slapped arse. God bless her. It’s like, ‘You go girl’. She does look like a hairy arsehole. She is a lovely lady. You just want to say ‘god bless’ and here’s a Gillette razor.”

I’m sure that it was the overwhelming criticism of Sharon by the public that inspired the apology she posted on her Facebook page that read:

Susan Boyle is a lovely gracious woman and I took advantage of that by poking fun at her. I would never want to be responsible for hurting Susan and I must apologize for getting a cheap laugh at her expense.”

I figured an apology would be coming soon, I just didn’t know what she’d say.

    It would’ve been funny if her and I were in a private room and she was telling me that, but to say it on a radio show where everyone can hear it knowing it was going to get back to Susan Boyle was just mean. I’m glad she apologized.

    Sharon Osbourne is one of those people who shouldn’t throw stones from the porch of her glass house. Have you seen some of those pictures of her a few years ago when she was fat? She looks a lot better now that she’s lost some weight and had a few little tweaks from Doctor 90210. In fact those old pics of Sharon remind me a little of Susan Boyle but I guess she found her Gillette razor at the plastic surgeon’s office. And maybe botox erased memories of her former self along with the wrinkles.

    Yes Sara, I completely agree. I have seen the pics and Sharon was no Heidi Klum, that’s for sure.

    Poor Susan! That was just mean of Sharon Osbourne she needed to apologize!

  • Zane Dickson said:

    Sharon Osbourne is a mean bitch. She said that just to be mean to make herself feel better but it made her look really bad.

    Sharon Osbourne’s a jerk. I’m sad we have the same first name. I feel awful for Susan Boyle.

    A lot of people like Sharon Osbourne but I think she’s a caddy bitch. That was mean of her to say that about Susan Boyle.

    Sharon’s a plain old jerk!

    Even though Sharon Osbourne made the rude comments at least she was big enough to apologize…works for me.

    I hate Sharon Osbourne and this is one of the reasons. She’s mean for no good reason.

    Mrs. Osbourne has the audacity to make fun of a common person when her own family is not perfect. I saw some episodes from the reality show. Her son got a brand new SUV that cost more than my full year of wages. His sister was trying to teach him how to park, drive etc. to pass his driver’s test. He couldn’t park & every other word was either the “F” word or something just as foul. Daddy seems he can’t form whole sentences or speak clearly to understand him. Would that be from years of partying as a rockstar that killed a few brain synapses? They only reason this family from “dysfunction junction” has celebrity status is because of the ability of Sharon’s keen sense of business savvy. She is the brains of the family & knows how to market the poor excuse of her family to their financial celeb status. The daughter isn’t much better in her dress, spoken word, or divatude. I watched the whole radio clip. Sharon uses the “F”.
    Susan Boyle is not a fashion model, nor are most of us on this planet. Simon Cowl even made fun of her when he saw her right before she sang. Body language speaks volumes. But she can sing. I’m like Susan. I’m large. I’m not pretty. I’ve been subjected to the same treatment by lesser souls than the ‘esteemed’ Sharon. It hurts. Most of us don’t have funds for plastic surgery or fat farms. We are lucky just to have jobs to survive. That is the appeal of Susan. She is one of us, but she has the Cinderella story we all dream about. Yes, dreams are possible & Susan is proof. She gives the common person hope. That is the beauty of it. Sharon Osbourne, Elaine Paige & all of those people like them will never have that. Fame & money doesn’t equal class or humility or being a polite human being. Ms. Boyle is first class all the way. Besides she can sing and Ossie can never equal that even on his finest night.
