Kelly Osbourne has seen your memes and TikTok videos mocking that tone-deaf comment she made on The View in 2015, and actually, she thinks they’re pretty funny.
You see, Kelly—the famously outspoken daughter of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne—has turned over a new, self-aware leaf since that regrettable moment when she tried to combat Donald Trump’s racist diatribes against Latinos by dropping her own unfortunate stereotype. (For those who don’t remember Osbourne’s unfortunate attempt at a mic drop, it went like this: “If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilets?”)
These days, the TV personality and singer tells Rolling Stone, she’s learned “when to shut up and to stop talking.” At this point, she insists, “I’m definitely not the person I was before that incident.” I’m sure we’re all relieved to know that in the years following that gross remark, which Osbourne now considers the “most cringe moment of my entire life,” she has been very busy coming to grips with the extent of her privilege and how to use her platform for good.
