Sharon Osbourne is doubling down on her sentiments after “leaving” The Talk. 

As widely reported, the 68-year-old found herself at the center of a firestorm after her shocking eruption during a race debate with Sheryl Underwood and her fellow co-hosts on the March 10 episode of the CBS series.

The drama centered around her support of Piers Morgan‘s widely-condemned comments about Meghan Markle.

The fall-out saw the show temporarily yanked from the air and a formal investigation launched which found that her behavior “did not align with [the network’s] values for a respectful workplace.”

She simultaneously announced her departure from the show after 11 years.

Now, she’s speaking up and out.

Appearing on ‘Real Time with Bill Maher,’ Osbourne did not hold back.

Easily the year’s breakout R&B star thanks to his breakthrough single ‘Heartbreak Anniversary,’ the 26-year-old is only seeing buzz around his efforts amplify thanks to high profile promotional appearances on the likes of ‘Ellen‘ and more.

Having already conquered the top positions of North American charts with his sixth chart-topping studio album, ‘Justice’ (click here to stream), Pop pinup Justin Bieber is looking to repeat the feat abroad.

The global push for the top-selling LP landed in Paris recently and saw Bieber deliver a 15-minute live set for his Parisian fans – affectionately called #Beliebers.

Performing five songs from ‘Justice’ (four for the first time), the virtual concert took to the City of Light to light up the Hôtel De Crillon alongside his live band.

Speaking on the international affair (helmed by show director Nick Demoura), Bieber said:

“For me, Paris has been one of my favorite places. We haven’t had the chance to travel. My wife was going over to Paris for some sort of gig. I think she was doing a magazine. I always wanted to throw something together that was overlooking the Eiffel Tower. We did one performance, which was on the Eiffel Tower, which was sick, but I had a vision of this performance overlooking the Eiffel Tower.”

From Ella Mai‘s ‘Trip’ to Michael Jackson‘s ‘Dirty Diana,’ self-proclaimed King of R&B Jacquees has received royal backlash many times over his short career for remixing some of today and yesterday’s most beloved R&B hits.

Released two years after ‘Quemix 3,’ the latest installment in the ‘QueMix’ series comes as a 13-track affair that sees the Atlanta native tackle some ’90s and early 2000s R&B favorites including Brandy‘s ‘I Wanna Be Down,’ Donnell Jones‘ ‘Where I Wanna Be,’ Usher‘s ‘Can U Handle It?,’ and more.
