Sharon Osbourne has backtracked on her comment calling Kim Kardashian a “ho.”
The X Factor judge previously responded to an interviewer told her Kim K had declared herself a feminist.
“If Kim wants to show off her body, fine. But that’s not feminism, that’s being a ho. And there’s nothing wrong with being a ho, but always remember what you are.”
The reality star then responded to the comments, telling E! News, “First of all, I think she said I said a quote about, ‘I post nude photos in the name of feminism’.
“Never said that. So I think when people misquote you and then comment, it just sounds ridiculous. I post nude photos because I like how I look and I feel proud when I’ve lost all this baby weight and I post it because I feel like posting it and I feel powerful.”
Now, Sharon addressed the comments on the US talk show The Talk, “It’s so ridiculous how these things happen.”
She continued, “The Telegraph is a paper in England and at the end of the interview, as the lady was leaving, she said to me, ‘have you heard that Kim Kardashian has come out as a feminist?’
“It’s no big deal, I commented, she asked my opinion and I gave it. It wasn’t rude.
“It was like, fine, she poses nude, she’s very sexual in her clothes, even her everyday clothes, it’s showing her body, which shows that she’s a strong grounded woman and she’s not afraid of her body.”
“Taking your clothes off, exposing your body, does not make you a ho. It does not. That’s not fair.
“She’s not a ho, she’s a married woman, she’s a professional woman and that’s it. She’s a strong woman.”
