Married?

Did she get married the other day? Was at Electric Picnic over the weekend and some of the bands were congratulating her, can't remember who she supposedly married though...

The View Controversy

I recently added the controversy from Osbourne's statements on The View to the article, without seeing that this had previously been removed per WP:NOTNEWS. However, given the lasting coverage of the incident and its virality (as noted by MULTIPLE reliable sources) it still warrants inclusion in the article as a notable incident. Thoughts?

-In my effort to merge the now-deleted list from the article [[Gay icon]] to the Gay icons category, I have added this page to the category. I engaged in this effort as a "human script", adding everyone from the list to the category, bypassing the fact-checking stage. That is what I am relying on you to do. Please check the article [[Gay icon]] and make a judgment as to whether this person or group fits the category. By distributing this task from the regular editors of one article to the regular editors of several articles, I believe that the task of fact-checking this information can be expedited. Thank you very much. [[User:Philwelch|Philwelch]] 21:49, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

-"Fashion-conscious Osbourne is part of a crop of young performers in the early 2000s who have revitalized the soft-core punk scene. Their combination of pseudo-punk outfits with an anti-authoritarian attitude (similar to Cyndi Lauper's persona in the 1980s) seems to reflect a movement out of the popularity of strictly pop music into an interest in rock and roll."
-This does not conform to the neutral point of view policy, nor is it cited. There are other problems with the article, but the quote above is the most glaring. At this point, it might make sense to scrap the entire article and start over with something that's more encylopedic, and more importantly, cited.

-== Osbournes TV show ==
-It seems that "The Osbournes" TV show is too briefly skipped over here, since that is the main reason for her fame and sustains her continuing career. Kelly is first and foremost known as a reality TV star, not as a singer or actress. Most of those who have heard of her have never seen her singing or acting.
-:Sign your posts by typing ~ four times in future please. Your point is debatable. There are plenty of people who identify Osbourne by her music, in particular One Word, which was quite a hit in clubs. [[User:Pazuzu567|Pazuzu567]] 16:13, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
-::But even so, one would have to ask whether she would have had an album and whether One Word would have been as successful were it not for her earlier career. (Even more so since it appears One Word may have been plagarised one would have to ask whether she would have had as much luck developing it and coming to an agreement with Visage were it not for her pre-existing fame). Also, I guess a different question is how many people know about her from the reality TV but have heard little about her as a singer/actress and how many people know about her as a singer/actress but have heard little about her reality TV star days? [[User:Nil Einne|Nil Einne]] 13:18, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
-::I would imagine that most people would recognise Kelly more as the daughter of Ozzy, than anything else. [[User:Trumpy|Trumpy]] ([[User talk:Trumpy|talk]]) 12:09, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
-== Weight loss ==
-Seem the recent weight loss should be discussed especially with her admission it was due to a thyroid problem and her reluctance to be treated for it... [[User:Nil Einne|Nil Einne]] 13:19, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

+== The View Controversy ==
-==CONTRADICTIONS==
-Correct me if I'm wrong, but this quote from the article contradicts itself:
-<br>''"Her debut album, Shut Up!, was released in 2002 to moderate sales, fueled mostly by a cover version of the hit Madonna song Papa Don't Preach, which was debuted with Houston rock band Pure Rubbish at the 2002 MTV Movie Awards. Osbourne's 2002 Epic debut, "Shut Up", debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Heatseekers chart. The album was met with bad critical reviews and Shut Up! failed to spark much interest"''
-<br>As does this one:
-''"Osbourne made her debut as an actress with a starring role on October 7, 2004 on the ABC high school teen drama Life As We Know It, where she played the supporting role of Deborah Beatrice Tynan."''
-So did the album do well or not? Also, was she in a starring role or a supporting role??

-I am no sure wether this should be included, or where it is most fitting: [http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30100-1252156,00.html Singer Sobs Over Disease], so anyone more into the Osbourne family should probably consider this. [[User:Coq Rouge|Coq Rouge]] 14:24, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

-Osbourne has a show, Kelly Osbourne: Turning Japanese, and it has no mention in this article.  I think it's definitely something for the article.[[User:DarshaAssant|DarshaAssant]] 05:44, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
-==Fair use rationale for Image:Kellypapa.jpg==
-[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|70px|left]]
-'''[[:Image:Kellypapa.jpg]]''' is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is no [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline|explanation or rationale]] as to why its use in '''this''' Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|boilerplate fair use template]], you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with [[WP:FU|fair use]].
-Please go to [[:Image:Kellypapa.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline |fair use rationale]]. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
-If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Missing rationale2 -->
