Sharon Osbourne Hits Out at Susan “Ugly Stick” Boyle

By | Posted on November 6th, 2009
  • It doesn’t matter that Sharon Osbourne‘s face has been carved up like last year’s Thanksgiving turkey…

    The lady still had the nerve to criticize Susan Boyle‘s looks earlier this week on The Opie & Anthony Show. I can admire Sharon when she speaks Truth to Power – and especially when she’s opening a can of whoop-a** on charm school debutantes – but attacking SuBo like this just seems cruel.

    Watch the clip below. What a ghastly woman:

Speaking at a campus lecture on cultural awareness, Thompson said, “You’re not going to get hundreds and hundreds of black students here overnight, but what you can do is make them more comfortable.” (Telegraph)
