We've Said It Before And We'll Say It Again: Don't Mess With Sharon Osbourne!
Filed under: TV News > Anglophilia > Kelly Osbourne > Jack Osbourne > Sharon Osbourne
By now we all know that Sharon Osbourne is the fiercest mama bear in the industry (recall a certain Charming television moment), so it's no surprise that Queen Osbourne came just short of castrating a reporter who questioned the Osbournes' authority on "family"-oriented variety TV shows with their upcoming Osbournes: Reloaded. You know, cuz so many of the Osbournes have been to rehab!
Oh shiz. Someone hold her back!
Actually, don't hold her back! Let 'er rip!
Sharon said:
"That must be the most ridiculous question I have ever been asked in my entire career. I'm really angry. Do you know how many people in this country alone suffer from addiction?
This is a terrible epidemic that covers every race. It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor, black or white. It's an epidemic of drugs and alcohol in this country. OK? And all my family are examples of being truthful about their condition and working through it and trying to better themselves as human beings.
You know that we have been so open about our lives. My husband has struggled with addiction his entire life. And my son has been clean and sober for six years and lives a very, very strict AA lifestyle. And, so if anything he is a beacon of hope to any young person in this country who is struggling with addiction. So when you talk about family, we are family and we are a real family. I've taken real offense, because you know why? We're real people. And probably half of the people watching our show, they have someone in their family who has a problem with alcohol and drugs."
Preach it sister!
Recomposing herself, Sharon then revealed that Osbournes: Reloaded is not "celebrity driven…The show is more about being funny with real people."
And they achieve that with performances from the musically inclined family, pranks, contests, "audience interaction," and visits from famous pals such as Pamela Anderson (complete with wardrobe malfunction!), Fall Out Boy, and Miss Piggy.

Go sharron!!
I WONDER WHEN PEOPLE ARE FINALLY GOING TO LEARN!
.
.

YOU DO NOT FUCK WITH MRS. O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
.
AND YES, ADDICTION IS A SERIOUS ILLNESS AND THE OSBOURNES HAVE THE COURAGE TO GO PUBLIC WITH IT AND HOPEFULLY HELP OTHER PEOPLE.
.
.
DON'T MESS WITH SHARON'S FAMILY CAUSE SHE'LL RIP YOU A NEW ONE EVERY TIME!!!
Who cares!
She has raised a bunch of high-school dropouts who can't get their lives together. In one case on the Osbournes, the assistant was saying that Jack didn't do well at school because she let him stay up all night and he was not getting enough sleep. Sharon responded with "No, he probably needs prozac" This woman may be funny on TV, but she is a HORRIBLE mother.
you just don't fuck with sharon!!! she's awesome!!! fourth!!!
She has real big boobs!
Woot!!!
I was first! ^^
I'd sniff coke off her tits
Sharon Rocks!!! I love her!!
That's why I love her! Cause she keeps shit REAL!
Sharon is the shit.
Sharon Osbourne is a worse mother than Lohan.
Ask Her how to turn on a vacume cleaner that will shut Her up…
unfortunately, the osbornes do represent family "values" these days: child exploitation, drug taking, skewed priorites, etc. just look at the ridiculous videos of children dancing provatively to lady ga ga, beyonce, et. al and hollywood parents using drugs, throwing their kids to the babysitters/nannies.
in my opinion, the osbornes will never be the bastion of true and solid family values. i believe in preventative parenting, obviously they do not.
She is always right on……. She is truthful, she just recieves a lot of hate because she is. I would like to see her and her family happy and peaceful, She seems stressed out all the time.
I wanna be just like her when I grow up.
She is right!
I luvs dis BISH!
Re: LizardKinG – Hahahaha, excellent comment!
SHARON IS THE SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Sharon & Ozzy! They're a cute fam despite their probs.
I love, love, love Sharon. She's awesome! I used to love watching the Osbournes on Vh1 or was that MTV or E! (can't remember). Anyways, they were pretty funny.
People just judge them worse because their family is open and doesn't hide things. People need to be more like them. That is why their marriage has lasted so long in Hollywood! Truth. Other people need to learn that people f*ck up, oh well! Lindsey get your coked up self in rehab and get yourself healed! RPAT take a f-ing shower…thats gross you have to be clean! Wonder what his balls smells like! YUCK
QUIT TALKING AND OPEN YOUR MOUTH EVEN WIDER TO FIT THAT HUGE SANDWICH INTO IT YOU FAT COW. THE WHOLE FAMILY SHOULD HAVE ODEED WHEN THEY HAD THE CHANCES.
Bravo to this woman - I love the fact she doesn't mince words or gloss over her family's struggles. There is nothing phony about her and I have tremendous respect for anybody who is not afraid to be true to themselves. Very rare indeed.
I'd love to hang out with Sharon because she seems like she'd be fun to hang out with. I love watching her on TV. However, I don't think she'll ever win a Mother Of the Year award. I'll bet she was a very fun mom but I don't think she did much to keep her kids on track, like the fact that she didn't force them to go to school.
danm
This family has no business at all trying to promote themselves as family orientated. Give me a break!
She spends money like water - Ozzie's her cash cow - blubbering fried brain that he is. She's got to protect that. A little tough love with her offspring might shake them straight.
Ugh, white trash with money. Poor Sharon, so desperate for attention. She's a good pimp, I'll give her that much. She somehow manages to convince the stuttering drooling Prince of Prozac, her husband, that he needs to go humiliate himself onstage each summer by singing the wrong lyrics to the wrong song while pissing his pants onstage. Ozzy doesn't give a shit about music anymore, he hasn't made a good record in over 20 years. Watching him plod back and forth on stage with a band that looks like they could be doing something else is quite pathetic. Then again, the average Ozzy audience member is some white trash redneck who just wants to hear "Crazy Train" after drinking 5 crappy Lite beers. Yee ha, good times.
And look at their kids, they've all been to rehab multiple times before they were even legally allowed to drink. Great parenting there, Sharon. A good Hollywood parent, who never told their kids once the words "No" and just gave them everything they ever wanted their whole lives, that really established a good sense of entitlement.
Sharon still needs the money, as it costs over 100K a year to maintain her face and body.
It's not a rediculous question and to be offended by it shows a lack of thick skin. She had a good answer to it, I don't think she had to throw a hissy fit to get her point across.
You tell them Sharon!!!! LOVE this woman!!!!
This family has aired their dirty laundry and shown every skeleton in their closet!!! If all of these other "Celebritys" had the guts to do the same, people may not idolize them as much as they do!!!
Keep on keeping it real Sharon!!!!
i fucking hate that stupid bitch sharon. i completely lost any respect i had for her when she pulled that shit at charm school. the whole point of the fucking show was to teach those girls how to be better ladies and what does she do? fucking goes and insults that girl and goes psycho when she defends herself. she's fucking worthless to me. stupid bitch with a retarded good for nothing husband and pathetic addict children. goes to show how well she raised them. it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor to have an addiction problem. if you were raised right, you wouldn't be in that situation.
Sharon Osbourne…THIS IS FOR U…Dont talk about Drug additions b/c really did u help ur kids. Or did u do like most celeb. mom "Oh honey take another pill its good for u. People like u make me sick and the fact that I have to see u and those god for sake junkie of kids of yours. And I quote her "This is a terrible epidemic that covers every race". Don't speak on something u had a great deal in helping. So tell me what have you learn from Kelly and Jack addition?
team osbourne.
sharon is wonderful
i adoore her
I wish Sharon Osbourbne was my Mummy…shes the best she truly speaks for every single person out there that has suffered through this epidemic…please this is no laughing matter…I love u Sharon your one of the back bones to your fam..keep it reall girll
She is a violent scary freak of a bitch… there are better ways to get your point across…she never has had an ounce of class!
The reporter's question was typical - if press were really smart, they'd be surgeons. He was regurgitating crap he'd heard, and was inciting, trying to push her buttons. I'm glad she used it as an opportunity to outline why, rather than risking another assault charge and knocking his block off. Idiots aren't worth doing time or paying fines for. If he had ever even watched the Osbournes, he'd never ask that question, because he'd see what a wonderful family they are in their own way. I'd sign up in a heartbeat.
Re: WatchGuardian – Good Lord. Well, then here's to white trash. I'd rather have lunch with a scrappy, ballsy firecracker of a(n astute) business woman who has clawed her way up the hard and storied way, than
yawn my way through tea with some elitist, privileged poof who inherited rather than earned his rank who has someone else close by at all times to wipe his arse.
She's classy in her own way, because she's true to herself.
Dead on
Sharon Osbourne can go Fuck herself.
Christ on a bike, I love that woman!
I totally and utterly RESPECT the Osborne family,, to have a mom so awesome and one who stands her ground is amazing ,,even thru the tough times Mom/ Sharon and Dad/ Ozzy have show UNCONDITIONAL love and also I believe their children show the same respect and unconditional love as they grow older,, in the public eye I might add,, how challenging that would be !
OMG!!! I love this woman! You go girl!!!
Perez I though you where the fattest mama bear.
I'm more than a little sick of this weirdo family who feels that acting trashy and then talking trashy about it is "refreshing and truthful."
