Sharon Osbourne on ‘The Talk’ exit: ‘I’m angry, I’m hurt’

Sharon Osbourne has resigned from her controversial The talk as well as canceling culture during an interview Friday on Real time with Bill Maher, Osbourne’s first TV appearance since his departure on the day’s program.

In March, CBS announced that Osbourne ‘has decided to leave The talkFollowing a heated discussion on the air about race as well as accusations of racist comments that led to an internal investigation by the network. Asked by Maher how she was doing, Osbourne said: “I’m angry, I’m hurt.

Maher summed up the situation as follows: “Meghan Markle and Prince Harry gave their interview to Oprah. Well, then your friend Piers Morgan – he’s a commentator in Britain – said he did not believe things Meghan Markle said. And when you said in your program, ‘He’s a good friend of mine, and I do not necessarily agree with his opinion, but he is entitled to his opinion.’ So he was called a racist and he lost his job and you were called a racist and you lost your job. Am I right? ”

“You got it right. That is exactly how it went, “said Osbourne. “I have been called so many things in my life, I am called such things, but I will not take a racist.”

After a conversation about the “cold” of the royal family and Osbourne’s strange friendship with Morgan, Osbourne and Maher returned to the subject of Morgan’s comments on Markle – “She’s entitled to her opinion, Piers is entitled to his, and it’s all about, ‘Osbourne said,’ you are entitled to a dissent, discuss it in a normal way ‘- as well as accusations of racism that Osbourne made by former The talk co-hosts like Leah Remini and Holly Robinson Peete.

“I never, never said that Leah Remini was whatever she said, I do not even use the words, it is not in my vocabulary,” Osbourne said, adding that the accusations against her of “disgruntled ladies . “

Maher and Osbourne encountered the following against ‘canceling culture’ and how it, as Maher said, ‘judges everyone at their worst moment’.

“I’m a fighter, I’m fine,” Osbourne said. ‘What about the people who have been cut off from the knees and cannot afford to get lessons now on what is politically correct and how to talk to people? What happens to them? That’s not fair. This is not about a racist. It may not be knowing what the day is correct for your language. Because it changes from day to day, what is correct and what is not. ”
