In a clip from the March 10, 2021, episode of The Talk, Sharon Osbourne appeared angry when Sheryl Underwood called her out for defending Piers Morgan and tried to explain how her friend's commentary might be perceived as racist. "Don't try and cry 'cause if anyone should be crying it should be me," Osbourne began while holding a tissue in her hand. "This is the situation. You tell me where you have heard him [Morgan] say, educate me, tell me when you have heard him say racist things. Educate me. Tell me."
"It is not the exact words of racism. It's the implication and the reaction to it. To not want to address that because she [Markle] is a Black woman and to try to dismiss it or to make it seem less than what it is, that's what makes it racist," Underwood responded in a calm tone. "But right now, I'm talking to a woman who I believe is my friend and I don't want anybody here to watch this and say that we're attacking you for being racist." As Underwood continued to speak, Osbourne laughed and said that it was too late.
Twitter went wild following the discussion, with many slamming Osbourne for her dismissive attitude. "That was uncomfortable to watch Sheryl Underwood try and explain to Sharon Osborne why Social Media thinks she's racist," one person wrote. Another tweeted that Osbourne was destroying her career, while an additional viewer said Osbourne was "tone-deaf." Someone else joked, "Sharon Osbourne about to walk off The Talk set like Piers Morgan this is so funny."
