Sharon Osbourne Says She Wants Her $900K Donation Back From ‘Black Lives Matter’
Kanye West recently responded to backlash after he and Candace Owens wore ‘White Lives Matter’ shirts during his YEEZY SZN 9 show during Paris Fashion Week.
After social media went crazy, Ye posted a message to his Instagram Stories saying: “EVERYONE KNOWS THAT BLACK LIVES MATTER WAS A SCAM. NOW ITS OVER YOU’RE WELCOME.”
Although several fellow celebrities, including Jaden Smith, Jodie Turner-Smith and Linda Evangelista, have condemned his beliefs, Osbourne appeared to stand in support of West’s claims.

“I don’t understand why white lives don’t matter?” Osbourne told a TMZ paparazzo in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles. “Listen, it’s not my thing. It’s not my culture. I don’t understand it. Everybody matters, don’t they?”
However, when further asked to clarify if she “agrees” with West’s point, the British-American TV personality responded: “I don’t know what his point is.”
The interviewer went on to explain that the 45-year-old Grammy-winning artist had labelled BLM a “scam”. Osbourne then laughed: “Oh, well, we gave $900,000 (£800,700), and I’d like my money back. Wish he could’ve said that before.”
When she was asked if she believes West should be “cancelled”, Osbourne replied: “You can’t stop people from living their lives, doing what they do. Don’t go to his social media. Don’t listen to his music. Leave the guy alone, let him do what he does and if you don’t like him do that. Leave him alone.”
