[edit]Career

[edit]The Osbournes
Osbourne and the rest of her immediate family (without Aimee) were thrust into the international spotlight with the MTV reality show The Osbournes, which aired from 2002 to 2005. The series chronicled their day-to-day life, and the show became a hit for its portrayal of a dysfunctional, though close-knit family in which metal music, profanity and other harshness were a daily part of life. Kelly, the middle child, emerged (according to Rolling Stone) as "a wickedly funny, brutally honest, pint-size, potty-mouthed spitfire." The series started when she was around the age of sixteen, ending around the ages of eighteen or nineteen. Kelly said in an interview for The Osbournes DVD that the crew were only actually supposed to be there for a few weeks but ended up staying for a few months and that the constant cameras focusing on her and her family was stressful.[6]
Both she and the Osbournes family have been parodied in Channel 4 comedy, Bo' Selecta. In which the rubber-masked Kelly, played by Leigh Francis, has her own show and is always being censored for swearing with bleeps.
In March 2009, Osbourne returned to television with the rest of the Osbourne family on Osbournes: Reloaded.[7]

Osbourne was the first artist to top all three of the Billboard charts dance surveys in the same week with the "Chris Cox Club Remix" of "One Word".[9] The album "Sleeping In The Nothing" was not without controversy, due to its reportedly heavily-altered album cover, in which Osbourne appeared slimmer,[10] despite her previous assertions of being happy with her size.[citation needed]
