Sharon Osbourne is telling the full story on her claims that actor Ashton Kutcher is the “rudest celebrity” she has ever met. Her now notorious description of Kutcher as a “dastardly little thing” was born from a prior television interview with the former “That 70s Show” star.

A recently aired episode of “Piers Morgan Uncesored” gave Osbourne the floor to talk about the allegedly rude actor. She recalled that she mispronounced his name on “The Talk”, for which she apologized to Kutcher during the commercial break. The actor then allegedly turned to her and said “Who are you? What do you even do, what’s your thing?”

Osbourne’s son Jack Osbourne confirmed that his mother’s bad experience with Kutcher was entirely unrelated to his recent controversies.

Osbourne’s Initial Comments

The TV host and music manger recently reflected upon the worst celebrity she has ever met. Coincidentally, she named actor Ashton Kutcher amid reports that he sent a letter to the Los Angeles judge who sentenced his longtime friend and “That 70s Show” costar Danny Masterson to 30 years to life in prison. The sentencing was delivered on three counts of rape and sexual assault.

Osbourne referred to Kutcher as a “rude, rude boy,” and a “dastardly little thing.” The quotes were pulled from an appearance on E News, in which Osbourne and her daughter Kelly Osbourne played a game of “Stir The Pot” alongside the hosts, answering a series of humorous and brutally honest questions.

Given that the segment aired just one day before leaks revealed that Kutcher and his wife and fellow actress Mila Kunis wrote the letters defending Masterson, fans of Osbourne and critics of the famous couple alike praised her for her timing.

The clip is showing a different perception of the popular actor, who most recently appeared opposite Reese Witherspoon in “Your Place Or Mine.” The actor has long operated Thorn, an organization that works to end child sex trafficking. Now, amid the leaked letter in defense of Masterson, many feel that his organization was a farce all along. Amid the leaked letters, Kutcher and Kunis stepped down from their roles at Thorn.

Kutcher and Kunis later issued an explanation video for why they wrote the letters, detailing their 25 year friendship with Masterson.

The couple have not spoken further on the matter since their joint statement and public decision to step down from Thorn. They were seen for the first time in weeks in public in Los Angeles last night.

Amid Masterson’s rape conviction, the disgraced actor’s wife Bijou Phillips has filed for divorce.
