Sharon Osbourne reveals the three topics she will NEVER talk about after getting ‘canceled’

>

If you want to hear Sharon Osbourne’s take on “religion, politics and minority groups,” you’ll be faced with silence, at least during an interview.

The British television personality revealed in an exclusive chat with DailyMail.com that she is off limits to these topics following her resignation from The Talk and her subsequent “cancellation” by the public.

Sharon, 69, wades back into the depths of the scandal that cost her a successful daytime television career in her upcoming Fox Nation documentary series Sharon Osbourne: To Hell & Back.

‘I have learned a lot from it’ [getting canceled] but you are who you are. I’m not a racist… never said anything racist,” Sharon said. ‘People are awake, it’s a whole different world out there. People behave differently now.’

As a refresher, Sharon’s fall from favor was accelerated by a heated argument with The Talk co-host Sheryl Underwood about comments Piers Morgan had made about Meghan Markle.

At the time, in March 2021, Morgan was accused of being racist for his harsh public criticism of the Duchess.

Sharon went ahead and defended Piers, a close friend, on an episode of her talk show, and her defense didn’t sit well with Sheryl Underwood — nor with the public and CBS executives.

‘I have learned a lot from it’ [getting canceled] but you are who you are. I’m not a racist… never said anything racist,” Sharon said. ‘People are awake, it’s a whole different world out there. People behave differently now.’

“It’s scary when you can say one thing and it gets distorted or people don’t understand the context,” Sharon recalled.

During a previous exclusive meeting with DailyMailTV last year, Osbourne claimed that the seemingly impromptu moment was actually carefully orchestrated by a show manager who wanted to create controversy.

When asked – despite her claims that she was “set up” and essentially hung out to dry on live television – did she regret what she said? Sharon was firm in her answer, “No. no. no.’

That’s not to say she hasn’t learned from the experience, though. “There are three things I never want to talk about: religion, politics and minority groups because you can never win,” Osbourne said. “There will be 50 percent who agree with you and 50 percent who think you are an asshole.”

“There are three things I never want to talk about: religion, politics and minority groups because you can never win,” Osbourne said. “There will be 50 percent who agree with you and 50 percent who think you are an asshole.”

She added that the 50 percent who disagree will become “judge, jury and executioner.”

After Osbourne lost her job at CBS and got public anger over her defense of Piers Morgan, the fallout was quick and, from her perspective, brutal.

Death threats started pouring in against her and her family. Sharon previously revealed to DailyMailTV that as a result, she was forced to hire 24-hour security and underwent months of ketamine therapy to work through the trauma.

In time, however, healing comes, and now that she has the benefit of hindsight (and lots of helpful therapy), Sharon has closed the book on her anger at the ordeal.

“You have to let it go,” Sharon said. “But I can still talk about it — my feelings of anger and frustration are gone. If I had taken that with me.. It’s too much, I would have given them too much by dragging them along.’

“You have to learn to let that go,” she repeated. ‘Do I think I’ve been treated unfairly? Yes. Am I still going to talk about CBS on my dying day? Not really.’

“You have to learn to let that go,” she repeated. ‘Do I think I’ve been treated unfairly? Yes. Am I still going to talk about CBS on my dying day? Not really.’

Then she adds with a laugh, imagining the absurdity: ‘Shall I lie on my deathbed and go’ god, I wish I hadn’t been fired from The Talk? I do not think so.’

“You have to deal with it and get it out of your head. It’s dangerous if you let it fester,’ she explained.

In a silver lining-on-a-dark-cloud moment for Sharon, the therapy she underwent to deal with the fallout from The Talk allowed her to unravel issues from her past as well.

While praising the virtues of the therapy process, Osbourne joked, “It’s the best thing because you get rid of it; you deal with it.’

Sharon seems to be past the trauma and drama of her Hollywood exit (both literally and figuratively when she and Ozzy recently packed up their Los Angeles mansion and returned to the UK).

With that in mind, it’s curious that the former America’s Got Talent jury would go all out for a new docuseries, but she has her reasons.

“I wanted people to know that I am more than that,” she said. “It’s so easy to forget what everyone else has done before and think of something like that. The last thing you heard was that a lot of people called me a racist.’

It was that desire that prompted Sharon to team up with Fox Nation on the four-part program to unpack CBS’s messy split and include insights from her famous family, friends, and former colleagues.

“It’s a documentary about my life,” Sharon explained. “There’s a lot of stuff in there that people didn’t know about me.”

The little Brit quickly rattles off a list of traumatic life events — such as a plane crash, an argument with her family, her father’s tax bill — and says nothing about her much-discussed traumas such as cancer attacks, Ozzy’s infidelity and the diagnosis of Parkinson’s, son Jack’s MS. diagnosis and daughter Kelly’s struggle with addiction.

As for the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne is doing a great job. His wife of 40 revealed that he has recovered from recent surgery to correct problems caused by a fall and has just released a new album that is quickly storming the charts worldwide.

“He feels much better,” she said. ‘He is very happy today [about his album].’

Ozzy is doing so well that he’s set his sights on a “hopefully next summer” tour.

“I wanted people to know that I am more than that,” she said. “It’s so easy to forget what everyone else has done before and think of something like that. The last thing you heard was that a lot of people called me a racist.’

The couple are currently refurbishing their old home in England, which Sharon says has a lot of land and is in the country. And as an animal lover, the TV personality is already planning on getting baby ponies and llamas for the grounds.

“For Ozzy and me, LA isn’t really the place for older people. It just isn’t. I don’t want that life anymore.

“It’s not that Ozzy are movers and shakers. We don’t go to every party or opening,” she said with a laugh. “Oh s**t I miss New York Fashion Week.”

“It’s a very strange feeling after you’ve been somewhere for so long and you come back and think it’s going to be great,” the star reflected on their repatriation – which will happen with cameras rolling. “It’s going to be so hard.
