Kelly Osbourne has sparked concern among social media users after debuting on the runway at a fashion show in London with sharp cheekbones and pale makeup. The 41-year-old actress and singer, who is the daughter of the late Black Sabbath lead singer Ozzy Osbourne, walked the catwalk for fashion designer Natasha Zinko.
Photographs of her runway appearance were published on the Instagram account of American celebrity news outlet Page Six, where they quickly generated widespread reaction. Commenters expressed alarm over her physical appearance, citing her striking facial features and dramatic catwalk styling.
During the presentation, Osbourne wore a sleeveless white shirt paired with a black skirt that featured a high side slit. Makeup artists gave her whitened skin and outlined her lips with a brown pencil. Stylists completed her look with a satin bow tie and a short black wig styled with slanted bangs.
Social media reaction
The Page Six Instagram post drew numerous comments analyzing her runway look. Internet users focused on her sharp cheekbones and stated that her face looked aged. Several commenters expressed concern for her health, noting that she appeared to still be losing weight.
Other social media users reacted to her appearance with surprise. One commenter wrote that her runway look served as inspiration for a Halloween costume. Additional commenters referred to her as a poor woman, stated that she needed help, and questioned what had happened to her.
The fashion show appearance follows a previous public outing that marked her first time stepping out after she publicly admitted to extreme weight loss.
Background and career
Osbourne first rose to international prominence in the early 2000s on the reality television series The Osbournes, which documented the daily life of her rock star family. She went on to build a multi-faceted career in entertainment as a singer, actress, and television presenter, including co-hosting fashion commentary programs. Her father, Ozzy Osbourne, gained world fame as the lead vocalist of Black Sabbath, the pioneering English heavy metal band formed in Birmingham, before embarking on a successful solo career.
