Sharon Osbourne has said sorry via Facebook to Susan Boyle for her nasty remarks on the Opie and Anthony Show.
Sharon says, "Susan Boyle is a lovely gracious woman and I took advantage of that by poking fun at her. I would never want to be responsible for hurting Susan and I must apologize for getting a cheap laugh at her expense."
Osbourne, 57, was apologizing for remarks on Sirius XM Radio where she called Boyle a "lovely lady" who had been hit by "the ugly stick".
The clip, which was posted on YouTube, provoked fury among Boyle's fans.
In the clip, Osbourne could be seen laughing with presenters Opie and Anthony after she said, "You just want to say God bless and here's a Gillette razor."

Look at the success the supposed "ugly" woman was able to achieve, even while just looking like herself. Susan is a lovely woman!

Sharon apologized after she heard how angry fans and critics were about her remarks. She was inapropriate, cruel and disgusting. What was said can not be erased. Keep your apologies sharon they don't mean a thing. Susan Boyle is too much of a lady to pay mind to you. Susan is too busy and traveling as being the biggest star in the world. Sorry it wasn't you sharon but don't be jealous. If Sharon is not fired from AGT many of us will not watch the show.

God bless Susan Boyle. How I love her gentle humble spirit not to mention her exquisite singing. Long may she reign.

I think Susan would want this all to be put behind us. Rehashing it just keeps it in the forefront. We all know that Susan is more beautiful than words can say...what one misguided, jealous, insensitive individual thinks is of no consequence.

Well at least Sharon ahs apologised, which is more than can be said for Amanda Holden who continues to this day to say her revolting and offensive skit with Alan Carr was "just a bit of fun". I suspect Sharon heard what Susan said in her recent interviews about how hurt she was by what people said abut her appearance, and maybe, just maybe realised she had oversteped the mark. She is known to go too far and is easily egged on by silly individuals who have no honour. She saw Susan's reply to a rporter at the airport and also realised Susan was not going to lower herslef to that level and would never do such a thing to her . She realised what a classy lady she was. I doubt manda Holden will ever realise this. I give Sharon the credit for doing so and having th guts to make an apology and admit she got it wrong.

Beauty is as beauty does. An apology 10 days after the fact and not even a 'direct to the person' apology is better than nothing. But not by much.
