KEY POINTS
- Sharon Osbourne recently appeared on Bill Maher's show
- She denied her former colleagues' allegations against her
- She also said that Prince Harry was "boohooing" about being cut off
Sharon Osbourne recently appeared on HBO's "Real Time Will Bill Maher," where the 68-year-old television star had a lot to say about her former colleagues. She also called Prince Harry the "poster boy" of white privilege.
Apparently, Osbourne was "angry" and "hurt" because of the accusations made by her former colleague, but mostly for being called a racist when she stood up for Piers Morgan.
During the interview, she denied Leah Remini's allegations that she once referred to Julie Chen as "slanty eyes" and called Sara Gilbert as a "pu**y licker."
Osbourne then labeled her former colleagues as "disgruntled ladies," claiming that she wasn't someone who would use offensive language.
"I've been called so many things in my life. I am so used to being called names. But a racist is one I will not take," she said as per Page Six.
The television star left her show "The Talk" last month, which was co-hosted by Sheryl Underwood, after the two got into an argument on-air surrounding the controversial statements made by Piers Morgan regarding Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's interview with Oprah.
Maher later proposed that there are chances that the royal family might be racist but Osbourne believes that anyone who will become part of the royal family will most probably end up with a cold welcome because of the generation gap.
"The Queen is from a different generation. They are notoriously non-huggy. I get it, because of her age. She's from a different generation," she said.
The former daytime talk show host didn't stop there. She said, "You know when they say white privilege? You know, right there with Harry. Right there. He is the poster boy. So you know, he sits there and says 'daddy cut him off and he's not on the wages anymore' and he was boohooing about it."
"You can't feel empathy for that because you're a healthy, bright, educated young man. You can do whatever you want to do. Your life is your own," Osbourne continued.
Finally, addressing the racist allegations, she said, "Disagreeing with somebody does not make you a racist in my book."
