Sharon Osbourne: It's all about me!

[BupcakesandCunting]

Stupid woman.

Her poor son has MS and he's just become a father for the first time :( Yet Shazzer makes it all about her yet again. Just saw her bleating on some chat show in the States saying "What did I do wrong? What did I do when I was pregnant that could have made Jack so ill?" Errrrrr, nothing, you weird woman. Not all events in the world happen as a direct result of what YOU may or may not have done, as much as you might not believe it, Shaz.

She does my head in, that one. AIBU to say that she should be banned from speaking?

So glad there's other normal people on here with an ounce of compassion....I was starting to wonder

She'd have a lot more sympathy from me if this was the only thing about her family that she self-publicised about, but it isn't. When Jack and his fiancee announced the birth of their lovely little daughter, who was in the MIDDLE of the picture holding the baby? One wonders what Jack makes of all this me, me, me crap.

There is compassion towards what is happening to Jack and to Sharon.
Of course any mother would question if they have any doing in a condition their child may have or an accident that a child has been involved with.
My mother lives with a horrible guilt that happened 40 years ago when she took her eyes of my brother for a less than 10 seconds in a kitchen.

The point about the thread is how right is it for her to go on chat shows and the like a month after Jack has been diagnosed.
I know for sure I would need a lot longer than that to get my head round things before literally most of the world knows about it and having an opinion - like we are doing here!

Some celebs will also do anything to use their fame status to raise awareness and money for cancer/MS etc charities

I do have compassion - for her son. The person with the illness. If she'd gone on telly crying about how she's worried about how difficult life is going to be for him now, I'd feel bad for her.

I retract my last comment, having read the article.

And what I'm doing right now is not helping because I'm just feeling sorry for myself, and that is no good,' she added. 'So we just have to think positively and get on with this show that we love.'

I thought she'd gone on tv solely to talk about it, didn't realise it was her normal slot on their equivalent of Loose Woman.

Actually - I don't retract the bit about Peter-I-Love-My-Kids-I-Do-Andre.

Oh shut up, Foof. No-one has berated celebrities for raising awareness about MS/cancer. That isn't what she is doing.

Agreed, no need for the though

So just because YOU would need longer to get your head around it iknowwho, then everyone should take the same amount of time? Get real!

This is a family who have been to hell and back health-wise already, they've coped before, and will have those coping mechanisms already in place, they can be resurrected v quickly.

"one wonders what Jack makes of it" - maybe she has his blessing, maybe she is trying to take the heat off Jack knowing as a world famous family that there would be press attention?

have a little compassion people

Please do not tell me to shut up, thank you BupcakesandCunting :) Public forum, yadda yadda....

Well don't mislead on what I have said, Foof. :)

She was talking about it on that show, as she is a regular on it.

If it is in the press, it would seem weird if she didn't mention it.

Its like a US version of loose Women -only worse!

Yanbu anyway!

Maybe Jack didn't need to make a public announcement? Why couldn't the whole family just not say anything?

It wasn't that show I saw her talking on! It was a different one.

Been getting her head round it - before the line up of interviews on Oprah, Hello magazine, OK! etc

I presume she will be posting God some shit in a box?

LeBOF you NAUGHTY WOMAN.

Yes of course, talking in the media about an illness doesn't raise awareness at all does it? My mistake.

YANBU. Thank god she doesn't live over here anymore!

You think she was self-pitying to raise awareness? Yes, the mistake certainly is yours.

Well whether or not most of us would question the impact of our past actions either pre, during or post pregnancy or not is largely irrelevant. People react in different ways.

However, most of us would deal with it in private and not turn it into a televised SelfPityFest.

I saw a clip of her on the show they showed on This Morning. Yes, she was wailing. And no, it was nothing to do with raising awareness. I've seen plenty of people talking about conditions in a 'raising awareness' way but blubbing unintelligibly doesn't do that.

She is not raising awareness she is talking about herself

Bloody emotionally incontinent

Jack agreed to "go public" to raise awareness.

Sharon is weeping and wailing, odd behavior IMO, but yes, it will raise awareness of MS. We're discussing it, aren't we?

MY mum cried and wailed for 3 weeks when my brother split with his girlfriend And reacts like this to any situation as if it somehow inconveniences her and she can'r bear it. Weird.
