Kelly Osbourne’s Going Back to the Red Carpet... and Her Roots

Well that didn’t take long! Less than three months after quitting E!’s Fashion Police,  Kelly Osbourne’s found a new home. After plenty of speculation as to just what the outspoken personality would do next, she’s chosen to return to familiar territory, hosting the MTV Movie Awards red carpet on Sunday at 8 pm ET on behalf of said network, alongside Jessie J and Josh Horowitz.

This isn’t the first time Osbourne’s played red carpet host for MTV. All the way back in 2002, she hosted the Movie Awards Pre-Show. Pre-purple hair and fashion makeover, she was still in her “goth phase,” with a chunky, pitch black ‘do and plenty of eye makeup and red lipstick to go around.

“I want to make people feel good, and I want to have fun,” she told People magazine about her new gig. “I don’t want to feel like I’ve hurt people’s feelings or I’ve done something wrong. I just want to make this amazing.” Considering all the bullying that Osbourne endured at the hands of the media growing up, it’s actually surprising that she stayed on Fashion Police for so long. She’s doubly excited that she’ll be more in control of the situation: “It’s really scary and it’s really exciting,” she said. “I get to be more creative and pick the questions and talk about fun things.” Of course, the MTV Movie Awards have always been about fun above everything else, so this is a match made in rock n’ roll heaven.
