Sharon Osbourne has claimed that Susan Boyle looks like a "slapped a**e". The America's Got Talent judge made the remark in a US radio interview along with a number of other insults about Boyle's appearance. Speaking about Boyle's success on Sirius XM Radio, Osbourne commented: "I like everybody to do well. Even somebody that looks like a slapped a**e. God bless her. It's like, 'You go girl'. She does look like a hairy a**ehole." Osbourne went on to describe the overnight sensation as a "lovely lady" who needs a "Gillette razor". She continued: "[God] gave her the talent. Yes he did. [And] he hit her with a f**king ugly stick." Footage of the star's interview has since been uploaded onto YouTube, where it has attracted a largely negative response. Osbourne's attack comes less than two months after she was seen applauding and blowing a kiss at Boyle following her performance on the America's Got Talent final. I hate Sharon Osbourne, what a vile woman, who's she to talk about people looks, she should look at her daughter and herself first!, not that I'm a Boyle fan but Jeeez!

Maybe she would have been equally as honest if asked for her opinion about her daughter.  However, as she was talking about Susan Boyle, it probably wasn't an appropriate time to bring her daughter's appearance into the conversation.  The fact that Sharon Osbourne was applauding Susan Boyle doesn't mean that she was being hypocritical - she was probably applauding her performance, not her appearance.  Let's face it, she only said what everyone else has either said or thought about Susan Boyle, so why the outrage?

HAving just watched the clip on Youtube again, Sharon also clearly says that she likes Susan Boyle.

I agree with leaving her daughter out of it, it doesn't have anything to do with her but it was a very unnecessary and unkind thing to say particularly bareing in mind the difficult year Boyle has had emotionally and how ill prepared she seems for fame. Fells like yet another example of a fading star saying something shocking to glean some much coveted publicity.

why did she feel the need to bring Susan Boyle's looks into it? Can't she just say she is a talented singer and leave it at that
But wasn't the very fact that Susan wasn't considered 'pretty' one of the very reasons she became famous. The whole hairy angel thing! Not by any means condoning what Mrs. Osbourne said but lets not be disingenous here.
