Sharon Osbourne Spills on Everything From Justin Timberlake to Kanye West
July 30, 2013 by Jessica Salem
Sharon Osbourne is the matriarch of the Osbourne family, one of reality TV’s first families. The Osbourne clan starred on MTV’s The Osbournes and proved themselves to be one of the craziest families out there. They have since moved on to individual projects but Sharon is still as fearless as ever. She currently co host’s The Talk on CBS and is a judge on the U.K. X Factor. The media mogul spoke with The Daily Beast, recently, where she shared her thoughts on all things pop culture.
Osbourne dishes on her favorites such as Taylor Swift, “I think she’s brilliant. She is a great role model for young people, and she’s got a brilliant business mind on her.” As well as Justin Timberlake, “The best all-arounder. He’s funny, he can sing, he can write, he can produce, he can act. This guy has it all.”
She also let her disdain for Kanye West and Justin Bieber be known. “I have no time for [Kanye]. He bores me… He’s an average-looking man with an average talent, but he’s a great salesman. He’s his #1 fan,” she said when asked about Kanye West. She expressed her concern for Justin Bieber too, telling the website, “I feel really bad for him. I think that he’s lost, I really do. I think he doesn’t realize he’s white and not black, that’s a huge problem. Where do you go when you’re a child entertainer and then you want to transition to be a man? Very few make it.” Osbourne laughs at the idea of Bieber thinking he’s tough when she compares his life to hers.
Osbourne has been to hell and back when dealing with husband Ozzy’s addictions and she doesn’t plan on leaving. “I would never divorce my husband. Ever. He’s far from perfect and I’m even further from perfect… You don’t just walk away from people because they have a problem,” she said.
As she balances her gig on The Talk and her return to X Factor she has one goal left in mind, “I want to get Ozzy’s life story turned into a movie.” Now that would be a crazy movie.
