Kelly on the set of Fashion Police

I became interested in Kelly Osbourne, she of famous parents Ozzy and Sharon, during her turn on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. She fascinated me with her charm, quick wit and shining personality. Then she hooked up with Joan Rivers on E!’s Fashion Police, a show I dearly love, not only for the fashion, but the comedy as well. That shows never ceases to make me laugh. Now, Kelly has agreed to give her fans a look inside her personal life, along with her parents, brother Jack, and a close friend. The special airs Sunday, November 20 at 11:00 pm on E!. Here are the deets from E!’s press release, as well as some revealing quotes pertaining to Kelly:

(Los Angeles, CA, November 18, 2011) – Kelly Osbourne has been down the rabbit hole and back again. After bursting onto the reality TV scene in 2002 as the punky daughter of Ozzy Osbourne, Kelly quickly became one of the most famous teenagers in America. Her nearly 10 years in the spotlight have included bouts with addiction, hit records, a gig on E!’s “Fashion Police,” moments of despair and dreams come true. In this special 30-minute episode, the 27-year old entrepreneur shares the most personal – and pivotal – moments of her young life. Also sitting down with E! to reveal the private side of Kelly are her mother, Sharon; her father, Ozzy; her brother, Jack, and one of her closest friends. The E! Entertainment Special: Kelly Osbourne premieres on November 20 at 11:00 PM on E!.

Jack Osbourne on Kelly’s thirst for fame:

“She will probably kill me for saying this…but the truth is that Kelly really wanted to be famous.”

Sharon Osbourne on Kelly’s unusual upbringing:

“When Kelly was one month old, she was on a plane to see her dad in Palm Springs at Betty Ford Center. She wasn’t the average child from the average home.”

Kelly on her pre-teen years:

“I never really felt like I fit in anywhere, because I didn’t want to be a popular kid, I was clearly not a jock, not smart enough to be a nerd…and it was just very uncomfortable for me.”

Kelly on her mother’s battle with cancer:

“My dad is at home losing it because his biggest fear in the world is to lose my mom…it’s his biggest fear. And my brother couldn’t handle it…so, I was always just there trying to figure out: how the hell am I going to deal with this?”

Kelly on her self-esteem issues:

“I did take care of everyone else but myself. But that’s because I hated myself- I didn’t like myself at all…in any way.”

Jack on Kelly’s drug addiction:

“It hadn’t been an easy battle for Kelly. She wasn’t one of these people that went into treatment once and it worked. Kelly’s had to go in a few times.”

Kelly’s “Dancing With The Stars” partner, Louis van Amstel:

“I don’t think I’ve ever been more proud of anyone ever than Kelly Osbourne.”
