Zendaya isn't the only one reeling from Giuliana Rancic's offensive comments about dreadlocks.
Kelly Osbourne, who co-hosts Fashion Police on E! alongside Rancic, took to Twitter yesterday to express her disgust over the controversy. During the Oscars red carpet broadcast, Rancic had joked that Zendaya's dreadlocks probably smelled like "patchouli oil" or "weed." That prompted the young actress to make a statement blasting the E! presenter on social media. The subsequent fallout has been intense.
Osbourne, who has been seen socializing with Zendaya in the past, was one of the many people who took offense to Rancic's ill-judged comments. The commentator took to Twitter to air her complaints.

— Kelly Osbourne (@KellyOsbourne) February 24, 2015Rancic did apologize for her words yesterday. Whether or not that will be enough to keep Osbourne on board — or, more importantly, make things right with Zendaya and the countless others who were offended — is still in the air.
