Kelly Osbourne Leaving E!’s ‘Fashion Police’
Kelly Osbourne has left E!’s “Fashion Police,” the network announced Friday.
The move comes after days of back and forth on the TV personality’s part following Monday’s episode. In the episode, co-host Guiliana Rancic recapped the Oscars red carpet with her colleagues, including Kathy Griffin and Brad Goreski, and said of singer-actress Zendaya’s hair: “I feel like she smells like patchouli oil and weed.”

Osbourne, declaring herself a friend of Zendaya’s threatened to quit the show, though she seemed to sing a different tune after Rancic made an on-air apology.
“It takes a strong women to apologize & makes a forgiving women even stronger! #ThisTooShallPass,” Osbourne tweeted Thursday.
But things have changed yet again over the past 24 hours.
