Sharon Osbourne Apologizes for Calling Susan Boyle "Ugly"

Thursday – November 12, 2009 – 9:04am

Sharon Osbourne has apologized for saying that Britain's Got Talent runner-up Susan Boyle was hit by "the ugly stick."

Last month, Osbourne, 57, appeared on Sirius XM Radio's The Opie & Anthony Show and was asked about Boyle. She cracked, "You just want to say God bless and here's a Gillette razor."

But on her Twitter page this week, Osbourne changed her tune.

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

    This just makes me so angry. I can't beilive that Sharon would say something like that. Jabbing someones looks is low. I feel so bad for Susan, Ibet she is a lovely lady, and I bet that she has more class then to snub someone that way.

    Sharon Osbourne is just a stupid woman. I'd like to see what Sharon looked like before all the plastic surgery.

    "Us" is no different than Sharon Osbourne. They do not have to say disgusting things about Susan Boyle like Sharon Osbourne did. They are being disgusting by chosing this photo of Susan Boyle when there are many more flattering ones out there to chose from. By not posting Sharon Osbourne's less flattering photos before ALL of the plastic surgeries you are making a statment without saying a word

    Well Sharon Osbourne, narcissists only grow worse over time. Sad that your envy showcased your personality disorder so succinctly.

    It is a big deal. This was not just a joke, it was a sick and nasty attack on Susan Boyle's appearance. Have you noticed that men are not dissected like this? Opie and Anthony should also be pilloried and a punishment of some sort put on them - as occurred with Jonathon Ross. It is just not acceptable to laugh at people in this hurtful and disrespectful way. But, I have to say that having seen the Osbournes at Home on two occasions, I am not surprised by Sharon's behaviour. They behaved in a most disgusting and ignorant way at home. What else can you expect if that is the mire she comes from.

    Sharon Osburne you're no great beauty. You should be carefull talking about "ugly sticks".Your husband looks deranged, your children the two that I have seen are short, fat and have no sense of style or fashion.They look like they have been beat regularly with a ugly stick,and they look like they get up in the morning and take ugly pills. So back up off of Susan Boyle at least she can sing, can Ozzie? Once her finances improve maybe she will avail herself of some of spa's and whatever other treatments you have had done. Meanwhile leave the woman alone.

    Wow Amy @ 10:19, what an incredible mean spirited thing to say. I'm glad that you are the minority in these comments. I love Susan Boyle because she looks like anyone else. She gives people who don;t have the cloned Barbie look some hope. Try sucking on some chocolate instead of that lemon you got there.
  • November 12, 2009 - 2:22pm Where are the real stars? Says:

    What a sick thing to say and then apologize. I think she is the UGLY one here....on the inside sad and she is a parent...Amazing...

    If she took off all that makeup, she'll look somewhat like Ms. Boyle minus the double ch!n

    Her apology was pathetic the only reason why she apologized was she's afraid her drug addicted daughter won't get votes

    Who is this old, ugly woman to call someone else ugly? Has she looked at her dog faced stumpy, fat, deformed, drug-addicted mess of a daughter? or her butt azz ugly drug addicted son? This is the women who touts that she has so much class and calls out on others to show some class. How very hypocritical of her. What a small woman Sharon is.

    Lisa B. Sorry Lisa you are wrong here. Let me explain to you why: Sharon is sixty years old and that means she is too old to be making these types of (mistakes) I saw her interview, she was laughing about Susan, making fun of her. Much like you would expect a fifteen year old to behave... She has no room to make these harsh comments against such a talented woman. Bottom line... she is old and should know better. Her apology is a lie... she simply does not want for her comments to affect her daughter getting votes on dancing with the stars. The damage though is done....
  • November 12, 2009 - 12:50pm Kitty Says:

    So why was my comment removed?? You should at least send me a courtesy email explaining why? After all, there was no profanity. So much for free speech?
  • November 12, 2009 - 12:39pm Kitty Says:

    Sharon, you are too old to be making these hateful comments. I expect that type of behavior from a teenager that does not know any better!! Sorry, your apology is certainly not good enough. Especially since you clearly have not always liked what you see in the mirror!! Thus, the many plastic surgerys, weight gains and losses! Oh and your children, with half of they're bodies covered in tattoos, the drug use, the foul mouths? Susan Boyle, is a gracious, lovely, talented, gentle soul!! How dare you pick on someone like her? I suppose it is because you knew she would not be slinging any mud back at you... she has too much class for that, but I don't!! Look at yourself Sharon... look at your husband... and those children you created clearly did not fall far from your haggard tree. Carma Sharon... how did you feel when Susan was asked to sing on dancing with the stars?? Your daughter will not have any of my votes, as far as I am concerned your entire family is made from your same wicked, nasty fibers!

    Sharon made a joke in bad taste! Big deal! She appologized!
  • November 12, 2009 - 11:55am Angela Says:

    I'd rather see her apologize face-to-face.
  • November 12, 2009 - 11:47am Wilma Says:

    Well if you saw Sharon at Dancing with the Stars, you would see she has gained a bunch of weight. So really not much room there to talk!
  • November 12, 2009 - 11:42am p Says:

    apparently sharon has no room to talk!
