Those Osbournes!

    Ozzie might be a bit of a laugh, but I wouldn't want to meet any of the other Osbournes.

    I thought that this was amusing from the Daily Mail rag:

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1035976/Sharon-Osbournes-rage-TV-comics-fat-ugly-attack-daughter-Kelly.html

    Sharon Osbourne has blasted a comedian who called her daughter Kelly 'unattractive and fat'.

    The feisty matriarch - who has a penchant for firing off poison-pen letters to those who dare cross her - sent a scathing email to Jim Jeffries, telling him to 'f*** off'.

    Potty-mouthed Aussie comic Jim clashed swords with Kelly during this year's inaugural NME Awards USA.

    But he has now revealed the fallout from daring to criticise the Osbourne clan - even in jest - and the frank and hilarious exchange of emails between him and Sharon.

    He was presenting awards in April and had made a joke to Kelly that she wasn't as attractive as Agyness Deyn, who had just left the stage.

    The 23-year-old responded with a string of expletives, to which Jim replied drily: 'I think she'd be famous even if she wasn't Ozzy's daughter - she's that good.'


    Kelly then spat in his face (charming). If that wasn't enough retribution, Jim said: 'I thought that would be the end of it but I got an email from Sharon which said, 'Dear Nobody. Wait until you're a celebrity before you criticise REAL celebrities. Why don't you f*** off '.'

    But Jim hit back by replying: 'Dear Sharon. After you had all that plastic surgery and had the fat sucked out of your thighs, why did you pump it into your daughter's face?'

    The comedian revealed the email rant at a gig in Shepherd's Bush last night, where he was warming up for his appearance at the Edinburgh Festival next month.


    Sharon's spokesperson refused to comment.

    I wouldn't be a huge fan of Jim Jeffries - and I think it was the Paramount Comedy shorts that did that - but he gets a big thumbs up for putting Sharon O in her place.

    There's lots of times where I've thought it would be great if there was a 'Yeah I agree but couldn't be bothered to reply' button beside the Thanks button...

    The ma and da are down to earth but the kids I feel are full of themselves.
    Hollywood stardom has gone to their heads. No wonder some of the rest of the family want to stay off camera all the time.
    Fair play to them for deciding that.
