Kelly Osbourne & Katie Hopkins at it on Twitter.

Kelly has a good point "it takes me to make YOU relevant".

It's the only reason I can see for taking the piss out of somebodies appearance. Attention.

I did have a giggle to Hopkins tweet though.
"@KellyOsbourne love, like Jesus and Lily Allen - it took your dad to make you relevant twinkle x"
On another note, interesting she finished with the word 'twinkle', I noticed a few post's debating someone calling other posters similar things. Is this a way of being insulting or just a 'thing' people end comments with now?

Hopkins insulting Jesus now.

And Lily Allen is more famous than her dad.

Why does she always have to put someone down, does it make her feel better about herself?

I see she's getting brave now targeting individuals.

I don't mind if Katie H wants to sit there insulting celebrities - they either have more talent than she could ever dream of and/or have managed to get the fame and money that Katie is still striving to get some of at the age of 40. If she succeeds it's down to those that find her appealing and some say even empowering together with those that are obsessed with hating everything about her.

It is mind boggling to me that people find her empowering - the implications of that are the most concerning personally.

Getting famous because my dad is famous versus getting semi-famous because I say nasty crap just for attention? I think I know what I'd rather...

I can't believe the amount of 'brain washed sheep' she has supporting her.

One 'fan' said KH has inspired her to stand up for herself against ( as she put it to Kelly Osbourne ) you uglies. Very inspiring eh.

I despair.

It's like what a kid would do in the playground on their mobile texting someone they don't like.

Of course Hopkins was the instigator

The blind loyalty shown by her fans is worrying, it's like they're hypnotised into never seeing any wrong in anything she says.

Blind loyalty tends to be a feature of fandom of any sort these days.

I'm equally worried by those that are drawn into hating KatieH - without seeming to be able to control it - they too give a great significance to something going on here that is more than just Katie H and her fans. That powers the machine as much as the fans.

Very good point, the two sides tend to fuel each other and prolong debate/discussion/arguing. She's like the Female version of Clarkson.

Indeed there is a lot of hatred towards her which of course is a result of what she says and which wouldn't happen if she chose not to insult people for no apparent reason. The adoration and hatred are both extreme reactions, the people who dislike her are in my opinion totally justified, I'm one of them, I dislike her unnecessary cruelty and her tendency to aim a lot of that cruelty at vulnerable people. It's nice to be nice and nice she definately is not.

Not sure the bait was worth it. Dressing up a troll and tweeting the pic, is this really what adults do?

To balance out the insult directed at her, I have to say that Kelly Osbourne always seems to have terrific skin.

"@KellyOsbourne love, like Jesus and Lily Allen - it took your dad to make you relevant twinkle x"

Oh yeah, Hopkins, and it took the cash, built up from the marriages two broken families to put the roof over your head, and provide you with that lap top you sit at everyday spouting jealous bile out at younger working women, upside to that is that if you opened your mouth and said it to their faces, they would probably pass out from the smell
Time to get off your backside and get a real job instead of telling others to

There's always a market for harshness - cruelty if you will - and of course a "shock" factor. However, much we may want people to only be nice, to have not a single potential for anything nasty anywhere in them, the reality would appear to be very different if you look at the state the world is in.

The more attention that is given to Katie H in regard to being "shocked or appalled" by what she says the more she is empowered to say it.

There have been comedians from far back in history onwards, being cruel, mocking, shocking people with concepts and ideas - it's the dark part of humour which has always existed. The fact is Katie H hasn't a comedian's talent but she has a talent for grabbing attention, be it negative or positive. As an individual Katie H is insignificant - what's significant is the negative (more than the positive) attention she gets that powers the media machine around her.

Usually people put others down to try to make themselves feel better about themselves

Yes. I agree.

Very true.

I wonder what it is about herself that makes her so unhappy that the only way she can feel better is by putting others down.

I hope she finds the help that she needs.

I don't like Clarkson but that comparison is weak, to say the least. Apart from the fact Clarkson has been self sufficient and had a highly lucrative career for years.

That's all they do it for.

Just because Kelly Clarkson has put on a little weight, I see no reason why people are using it to batter her.

She should be allowed to profit a bit from her talent.

Live and let live, I say.

The FM was referring to Jeremy Clarkson as I was.

There is no reason to bully anyone about their weight. It's just another cheap shot, with no place in adult life, but nothing new in KH's pathetic and vacuous adolescent repertoire.

Oops sorry, not heard of that one.
