E! Entertainment has reportedly begun searching for Kelly Osbourne's replacement on "Fashion Police". Rumor has it, the network's own reality star Khloe Kardashian and Bravo's NeNe Leakes are being considered to fill in the vacant spot left by Kelly.
"She was supposed to do it last time and passed. She may consider doing it again but the offer would have to be really high," an insider says to Us Weekly of Khloe. "It's a lot of extra work for her."
Interestingly, Khloe was among the stars who voiced her support for Zendaya Coleman. The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star who just showed off her slim body tweeted to the Disney star, "You are a gorgeous, intelligent young lady! I love all that you represent! Keep empowering and shine bright!"
Kelly Osbourne left amid the drama stemming from Giuliana Rancic's racist comments about Zendaya's Oscars dreadlocks. She threatened to quit the show when fans dragged her name into the controversy.
The purple-haired fashion critic seemed to put the debacle behind her after Giuliana apologized on TV saying that she did "cross the line" and Zendaya graciously accepted it. "It takes a strong women to apologize & makes a forgiving women even stronger! #ThisTooShallPass," Kelly praised the two women on Twitter.
Nonetheless, she decided to distance herself from the show. Her departure was announced on Friday, February 27 after Billy Bush accused her of throwing Giuliana under the bus. She left "to pursue other opportunities," E! said in a statement. "No decisions have been made on her replacement."
It was rumored that Giuliana did several takes for her TV apology. "They did the Zendaya segment three times," an insider claimed. "Three different takes. On the first two takes, Kelly said 'Guys, we can't say this. Zendaya is a friend of the show.' " The report was, however, denied by E!.
