Kelly Osbourne announced last Friday that she was leaving her spot on E!’s Fashion Police, just days after her co-host, Giuliana Rancic, made a very inappropriate comment about Disney star Zendaya’s hair on the Oscar’s red carpet. Zendaya wore long dreads with her Oscars gown, and Rancic said she smelled like ‘patchouli or weed.’
Now a report claims Kelly Osbourne had no choice but to resign from Fashion Police–even though Giuliana Rancic issued a very public apology for her remark.
“Being the feisty and stubborn character she is, she would find it incredibly difficult to work alongside Giuliana again,” the report states.
Zendaya didn’t want to see her good friend give up the job she loved, so she must feel awful in light of Kelly Osbourne’s resignation.
“Zendaya told Kelly that she shouldn’t quit Fashion Police because of the race argument,” a source told Hollywood Life. “She said that now that an apology was made, everybody should move on and try and forgive and forget.”

Both Khloe Kardashian of Keeping Up With the Kardashians fame and NeNe Leakes of The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Celebrity Apprentice fame are said to be in the running for the job at Fashion Police that Kelly Osbourne vacated.
Do you think Kelly Osbourne really left Fashion Police because she knew she’d never be able to work alongside Giuliana Rancic in light of her comment about Zendaya? Or do you think there’s more to the story?
