Sharon Osbourne Apologizes to Susan Boyle

Sharon Osbourne has apologized for "getting a cheap laugh" at Susan Boyle's expense.
Last week, Osbourne, 57, slammed the "Britain's Got Talent" runner-up, 48, on a radio show for being hit by "the ugly stick."
Now, Osbourne writes on Twitter, "Susan Boyle is a lovely gracious woman and I took advantage of that by poking fun at her. I would never want to be responsible for hurting Susan, and I must apologize for getting a cheap laugh at her expense."
Boyle performed on "America's Got Talent" -- the show in which Osbourne is a judge -- in September. Her debut album, "I Dreamed a Dream," drops on Nov. 23.

I don’t understand why NBC didn’t immediately fire her after that comment. She shouldn’t be a judge on a talent show when contestants know she’ll be trash-talking them in public after the show. I am writing Jeff Zucker at NBC and trying to gain momentum to get Osbourne canned. It’s amazing that someone without any talent or natural beauty can deem herself an authority on talent and beauty.
