Sharon Osbourne fires off angry emails after comic calls daughter Kelly fat

I walk a fine line between loving and hating the Osbourne family. Luckily they've lost much of their appeal in the U.S. so I don't have to think about them a lot anymore. On the one hand, I think they're loud and tacky and rude. On the other, I appreciate that they stand up for each other and seem to have a close bond, albeit an unusual one. Matriarch Sharon Osbourne went off on comedian Jim Jeffries, telling him in an email exchange to fuck off' after he called daughter Kelly fat and implied she was ugly.

The feisty matriarch - who has a penchant for firing off poison-pen letters to those who dare cross her - sent a scathing email to Jim Jeffries, telling him to ‘f*** off'. Potty-mouthed Aussie comic Jim clashed swords with Kelly during this year's inaugural NME Awards USA. But he has now revealed the fallout from daring to criticise the Osbourne clan - even in jest - and the frank and hilarious exchange of emails between him and Sharon.

He was presenting awards in April and had made a joke to Kelly that she wasn't as attractive as Agyness Deyn, who had just left the stage. The 23-year-old responded with a string of expletives, to which Jim replied drily: ‘I think she'd be famous even if she wasn't Ozzy's daughter - she's that good.'

Kelly then spat in his face (charming). If that wasn't enough retribution, Jim said: ‘I thought that would be the end of it but I got an email from Sharon which said, ‘Dear Nobody. Wait until you're a celebrity before you criticise REAL celebrities. Why don't you f*** off ‘.' But Jim hit back by replying: ‘Dear Sharon. After you had all that plastic surgery and had the fat sucked out of your thighs, why did you pump it into your daughter's face?'
