A Kelly Osbourne and Giuliana Rancic’s feud is escalating, and peace does not seem to be in the horizon. Insiders in both camps are pushing rumors to keep the battle alive.
A Kelly Giuliana feud has fans wondering when did things get so ugly. In the latest developments, Us Weekly reports that Kelly Osbourne is considered dead to her former friend and partner in crime on Fashion Police, Giuliana Rancic, who believes that Osbourne did not have her back during the Zendaya Coleman scandal in February. A source told the publication:
“Kelly is dead to Giuliana.”
It all started on February 23rd when the 40-year-old host made an on-air joke about Zendaya’s hair at the Oscars. The 18-year-old actress was sporting dreadlocks at the big event. Rancic said that Zendaya’s hair:
“smells like patchouli oil, or maybe weed.”
The remark did not sit well with commentators on social media and elsewhere who deemed them racist. Rancic rushed to apologize, but the damage was already done. The events that followed were filled with intrigue. Osbourne quit the show and took to Twitter to write the following:
“I DO NOT CONDONE RACISM.”
Rancic, who values loyalty, saw this as the ultimate betrayal. Fashion Police was put on hiatus in March by E! after comedian Kathy Griffin, who had just replaced the late Joan Rivers, decided to leave. On Wednesday, Rancic was happy to announce that the program would be back in the fall. The mother of one told Access Hollywood Live‘s Billy Bush and Kit Hoover:
“I think more than ever, [‘Fashion Police’] is definitely coming back, because [the controversy] shows that a lot of people were watching the show and enjoyed the show. So yeah, it’s coming back in September, in time for the Emmys. I will be on the show, Brad Goreski will be on the show, and now they just have to fill the other seats.”
Rancic’s career may be moving forward, but she does not seem ready to forgive her ex-friend.
What are your thoughts on the Kelly Giuliana feud? What do you think of Fashion Police‘s return?
