Kelly Osbourne has threatened to quit E! show Fashion Police over the fall-out from remarks castmate Giuliana Rancic made about child star Zendaya Coleman’s red carpet look at the Oscars on Sunday.
[fwdevp preset_id=”8″ video_path=”4OFOxNg8vyI”]After receiving a lot of negative comments on Twitter, she wrote: “I WILL NOT BE DRAGED INTO THIS! The situation is being rectified like ADULTS by both parties. I hope you can leave it to them & do the same!
“you guys do realize that @Zendaya is my friend right?
“Im giving everyone involved 24 hours to make it right or the world will hear how I really feel. contactually Im not allowed to speak!
“I DID NOT MAKE THE WEED COMENT. I DO NOT CONDONE RACISM SO AS A RSULT OF THIS IM SEREIOULSY QUESTIONONIG STAYING ON THE SHOW! (Sic)”
Zendaya previously slammed Giuliana for saying “I feel like she smells like patchouli oil … or maybe weed” while critiquing her red carpet look at the Oscars on the E! series.
She wrote on Instagram: “To say that an 18-year-old young woman with locs (dreadlocks) must smell of patchouli oil or ‘weed’ is not only a large stereotype but outrageously offensive.”
The 40-year-old star initially apologized on Twitter but following Kelly’s tweets she also issued a public apology to the young actress on E! News on Tuesday, saying: “Something I said last night did cross the line. I didn’t intend to hurt anybody, but I’ve learned it’s not my intent that matters, it’s the result.”
