#SHOWBIZ: Kelly Osbourne: Weight criticised more harshly than past drug struggles
LOS ANGELES: English TV personality, actress, and singer Kelly Osbourne has voiced her strong criticism of a "fat-phobic" society, asserting that she faced harsher judgment for her weight than for her struggles with drug addiction. The 40-year-old reality star shared her experiences at the Beacher Vitality Happy & Healthy Summit in LA recently, recounting the negative scrutiny she endured over the years, according to NME. "We live in a fat-phobic world. I have been a drug addict, an alcoholic...I've been a complete mess, disrespectful to people, horrible – but I got more flak for being fat than I did for anything else. It's insane," she said. The daughter of heavy metal legend Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne elaborated, "You'll never read an article about me that doesn't include a comment about my weight. People would say, 'You're so pretty. Why don't you just lose a little bit of weight, and then you'll be the total package?'" Osbourne revealed that her weight loss journey involved "everything" imaginable, including "surgery, medication, diet, and exercise." However, she emphasised that true transformation occurred when she achieved the right emotional mindset. "It's not as simple as changing your diet and moving. "You have to change your brain. You have to come to peace and acceptance about where you are in your life before you can start." Osbourne has been open about her past struggles with addiction. In an appearance on TMZ Investigates last year, she disclosed that she entered rehab for the first time at age 19, having developed an addiction at 13 after being prescribed opioids following a tonsillectomy. She described her early experiences with rehab with a touch of dark humour, saying it was "like university on how to be a better drug addict." Osbourne is currently in a relationship with Slipknot turntablist Sid Wilson, and they have a child born in 2022.
