Kelly Osbourne recently opened up about her experience as a cohost on Fashion Police with Giuliana Rancic. During an episode of her podcast, "The Osbournes Podcast," Kelly, 39, shared her honest thoughts and feelings about working alongside Rancic, 49.

Kelly responded to her mother, Sharon Osbourne, about Rancic, saying, "We don’t need to give her any f—king anything." Rancic was a co-host on the former E! fashion commentary show with Kelly, Joan Rivers, and George Kotsiopoulos in 2010.

During a podcast, Jack Osbourne clarified to his parents, Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, that Kelly was wrongly accused in 2015 for making a "really kind of a f—king racist comment" about Zendaya’s hair.

It was actually Rancic who made the controversial comment about the Challengers star, suggesting she had a certain scent.

Jack, 38, mentioned that he came across an article where Zendaya had a strong response to Rancic's comment, and Kelly expressed her support for Zendaya's reaction.

Jack mentioned that he hadn't seen anything from Rancic in a long time. Kelly responded that she wouldn't know because, in her opinion, Rancic doesn't exist.

Rancic apologized for her comments about Zendaya, which were deemed outrageously offensive. Zendaya was 18 years old at the time.

Kelly was pulled into the controversy, which led her to leave Fashion Police in February 2015. The show was later canceled in November 2017.

In response to Rancic's comments, Zendaya took to Instagram to express her thoughts. She mentioned that society already criticizes African-American hair, and it doesn't help when ignorant individuals judge others based on their hair texture.

Zendaya shared with W Magazine her thoughts on the incident, stating "That's how change happens." It led her to question how she could consistently influence perceptions of people of color.

Reflecting on her time on Fashion Police, Kelly Osbourne revealed that despite the challenges she faced with Giuliana Rancic, the experience was not entirely negative.

Kelly fondly spoke of Rivers, who passed away in September 2014 at the age of 81. She praised the iconic star for being like a mother figure to her.

“She was always there for me. She supported me and encouraged me to believe in myself in a way that I never did before she entered my life,” Kelly shared. “Losing her as a mentor every week was a significant blow to me.”

Kelly also expressed her admiration for Melissa Rivers, Joan's daughter, who joined Fashion Police in 2015 following her mother's passing.

Reflecting on the challenging atmosphere behind the scenes at Fashion Police, Kelly shared, "It's one of my biggest regrets, to be honest, how Melissa was affected by it all, especially since she had just lost her mom." She emphasized her desire to support Melissa, acknowledging that she can never fully repay her for everything she endured during that time. Looking back, Kelly finds it truly heartbreaking to see the impact on Melissa.
