Just days after she complained about co-host Giuliana Rancic’s comments about Zendaya’s dreadlocks, Kelly Osborne has announced that she will be leaving Fashion Police.
On Monday, after the Oscars, Racic commented that Zendaya looked like she smelled of patchouli oil or marijuana. She came under fire from both Osborne and Zendaya and quickly apologized for her comments.
On Tuesday, Osborne tweeted out to her followers that she didn’t condone racism and was seriously rethinking her part on Fashion Police.
E! Entertainment announced in a statement Friday Osborne’s decision to leave:
Kelly Osbourne is departing E!s Fashion Police to pursue other opportunities, and we would like to thank her for her many contributions to the series over the past five years, during which time the show became a hit with viewers. Fashion Police will return, as scheduled, on Monday, March 30, at 9 p.m. and no decisions have been made on her replacement.
The show’s executive producer, Melissa Rivers released this statement via WhoSay:
Kelly Osbourne is a friend and has been a wonderful part of the Fashion Police family. I will miss her terribly and wish her the very best in all of her future endeavors. As my mother always said, the show must go on and I plan to continue in the same spirit.
