Sharon Osbourne Defends Self Over 'Unfair' ‘The Talk’ Firing, Calls Out CBS for Doing THIS
Sharon Osbourne is speaking out a year after leaving "The Talk" and she's letting fans know about her true feelings about CBS letting her go from their network.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Fox Nation will release a short series titled "Sharon Osbourne: To Hell and Back" where the TV personality would share her side of the story amid the "cancel culture" she experienced after her departure.
In a teaser shared on Fox & Friends over the weekend, Ozzy Osbourne's wife said she felt like a "lamb slaughtered that morning." She also called out CBS for denying any responsibility for her departure.
While promoting the series on the show, the former "American Idol" judge said cancel culture has allowed the public to criticize and destroy her life because of her personal sentiments.
"I've worked in this industry for 50 years - actually, 55," she said. "I didn't want that to be the end of my career, and I thought it was unfair."
She later defended herself after backing Piers Morgan's statement for Meghan Markle amid her Oprah Winfrey bombshell interview, saying she's not racist and so is the TV star.
"But because he said something about somebody who is mixed race... I said, 'That's nothing to do with that.' He knew Meghan for a long time, so he's talking from experience," she added.
"Sharon Osbourne: To Hell and Back" will premiere on Monday, September 26 via Fox Nation.

Sharon Osbourne's Issues During Her Time on 'The Talk'
Aside from defending Piers Morgan, there are also more reasons why Osbourne was fired from "The Talk," including her alleged bad behavior behind closed doors.
In early reports, multiple insiders accused the talk show host of being "racist" and making offensive remarks throughout her stay on the show.
Journalist Yashar Ali reported the allegations in a Substack newsletter where she cited Leah Remini as a source.
The former "The Talk" co-host claimed that Osbourne helped create a "toxic environment."
Remini departed the show after one season allegedly because of the controversial host's direction. Osbourne has been a co-host for more than a decade before she got fired.
The embattled host also reportedly called Julie Chen "wonton" and "slanty eyes." The TV personality has denied all the allegations after her firing.
