“I think that what they have done is incredible, history-making. I go so far as to say both of them are iconic. But it doesn’t mean that I should automatically be given all of these opportunities”, she continued.
“My parents have always taught me that you have to prove yourself”, added Kelly. While his father, Ozzy, was already famous, the rest of the family achieved worldwide stardom in 2002 after taking part in the MTV reality show “The Osbournes”. Kelly has since tried her hand at several career paths, like music, fashion and acting.
