Sharon Osbourne Weighs in on Gabrielle Union as Booted 'AGT' Judge Sets Up Meeting with Network - TooFab
Former judge Sharon Osbourne is the latest to speak out after the ongoing controversy surrounding the latest round of judge ousters on "America's Got Talent." In particular, several reports have stated that Gabrielle Union was let go for speaking out too much over perceived instances of racism and insensitivity.
Osbourne, who was with the show for six seasons early in its run -- though her tenure never overlapped with creator Simon Cowell -- who joined with Season 11 -- said that she had her problems as well, but they weren't with the show itself. It was issues with the network that convinced her to go.
"I left. And that’s the truth. I left because NBC, not because of the show," she explained Monday on "The Talk." "I had my own problems with the network. I don’t know about any of [Union's] concerns about the show."
She went on to say that she did have to qualify her statements by pointing out there was no one of color on the panel during her tenure. "So, I honestly can’t say," she said. "But when I was there it was, you know, a great show to work on."
Osbourne shared the judging dais from Seasons 2 through 7 with Piers Morgan, David Hasselhoff, Howie Mandel and Howard Stern. While Jerry Spring was host when she started, Nick Cannon took over with Season 4. He would, in turn, leave after the 11th season (Cowell's first) alleging that he was being pressured by network executives after an off-color joke he performed in his stand-up routine, and it wasn't the first time.
The network responded to the allegations with a new statement on Monday: "We remain committed to ensuring a respectful workplace for all employees and take very seriously any questions about workplace culture,” the joint statement with Cowell's compnay Syco and Fremantle read. “We are working with Ms. Union through her representatives to hear more about her concerns, following which we will take whatever next steps may be appropriate."
Union is reportedly meeting with NBC's legal representatives this week in an effort "to improve the culture and atmosphere on the competition series," per Deadline. She is not expected to return to the show.
According to the report NBC is investigating all kinds of allegations that have erupted from the scandal, including claims Simon Cowell illegally smoked indoors, Union was advised her hair choices were "too black," and what happened when Union met Cowell to address her concerns at his home and he allegedly told her to only bring her concerns to him, not NBC.
They also reportedly want to know who leaked Jay Leno's purported racist joke -- that was never aired -- to the media.
The network reportedly has brought in outside counsel for this investigation, indicating a desire to be as unbiased as possible as they dig into the serious allegations that have fired up Hollywood, Time's Up and Union's fans across social media. Cowell has yet to comment publicly

'Will & Grace' actress Shelley Morrison dead at 83, remembered by co-stars - Fox News
Shelley Morrison, the actress who was best known for playing Rosario Salazar on the hit NBC series "Will & Grace," died at age 83 on Sunday, prompting the sitcom's cast to pay tribute on social media.
Morrison died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles from heart failure after a brief illness, publicist Lori DeWaal told The Associated Press. She was 83.
On the original run of "Will & Grace" from 1999 until 2006, Morrison played Salazar, a maid from El Salvador, becoming part of a cast that won a Screen Actors Guild award for best ensemble in a comedy series.
The character, originally written for a single episode, proved so popular in her interactions with co-star Megan Mullally that she would appear in 68 episodes during the NBC series’ eight seasons.
“Rosario is one of my all-time favorite characters,” Morrison said recently, according to a statement and biography announcing her death. “She reminds me a lot of my own mother, who loved animals and children, but she would not suffer fools. It is very significant to me that we were able to show an older, Hispanic woman who is bright and smart and can hold her own.”
'WILL & GRACE' REBOOT TO END WITH UPCOMING SEASON
Mullally, who played Morrison’s boss Karen Walker, praised the actress on Twitter.
“My heart is heavy. putting shelley, her beloved husband walter & their children in the light. thank you for your friendship & partnership, shell. you accomplished wonderful things in this world. you will be missed,” she tweeted.
Eric McCormack, who starred as Will in the NBC sitcom, recalled Morrison on Twitter as a “beautiful soul” and wonderful actor. “Her work as Rosario, season after season, was as nuanced and real as it was hysterical,” McCormack tweeted.
Debra Messing, who starred as Grace in the sitcom, tweeted: “Oh, Shelley... what a loss. Our dear Rosario has passed on. Shelley had a career that spanned decades, but she will always be our dear Rosie. All my love to Walter and the entire family.”
Sean Hayes, who played Jack McFarland on the sitcom, wrote in an Instagram post that Morrison "was absolutely hilarious and had the biggest heart."
Besides the opportunity to portray a strong Latina, Morrison valued “Will & Grace” for its breakthrough TV depiction of gay characters, said her husband, Walter Dominguez.

“Shelley’s greatest pride as an actress was in playing the indomitable Rosario, in a comedy series that furthered the cause of social equity and fairness for LGBTQ people. ... She believed that the best way to change hearts and minds was through comedy,” Dominguez said in a statement.
Before “Will & Grace,” Morrison was best known in her more than 50-year acting career for playing Sister Sixto on “The Flying Nun” alongside Sally Field from 1967 to 1970.

She guest-starred on dozens of television series starting in the early 1960s, including “The Fugitive,” “L.A. Law” and “Murder, She Wrote.” Most recently, she voiced a character, Mrs. Portillo, on the Disney animated series “Handy Manny.”
Born Rachel Mitrani to Jewish parents from Spain in the Bronx, New York, in 1936, Morrison spoke primarily Spanish as a child. She was often cast as Latina characters, but she played a range of ethnicities in theater, television and film.

Her movie roles put her in casts with Hollywood’s biggest stars of several eras.
She appeared with Dean Martin in 1968’s “How to Save a Marriage and Ruin Your Life,” with Barbra Streisand in “Funny Girl” the same year, with Gregory Peck in 1969’s “Mackenna’s Gold,” with Shelley Long in “Troop Beverly Hills” in 1989, and with Salma Hayek in “Fools Rush In” in 1997.
Morrison is survived by her husband of more than 40 years.

Dwyane Wade shut down internet haters who criticized his son's nails and outfit - CNN
The ex-Miami Heat player's wife, actress Gabrielle Union, posted a Thanksgiving family photo last week with their two children. Their son, Zion, is sporting white nails and what some Instagram users said was a crop top.
And when social media users began to criticize the photo, Wade responded.
"I've seen some post-thanksgiving hate on social about my family photo. Stupidity is apart of this world we live in—so i get it. But here's the thing—I've been chosen to lead my family not y'all," he said on Twitter.
"So we will continue to be us and support each other with pride, love & a smile!"
Hundreds of users responded to express their support.
"Shout out D. Wade for setting the example of a Black father loving and accepting their children as they are," said one Twitter user, who was retweeted by the athlete. "There'd be a lot less trauma in our community if more Black dads were like this."
Wade and Union both have emphasized the importance of inclusivity -- especially within their own family.
Earlier this year, Wade posted a picture of Zion and Union at Miami Beach Pride Parade, captioning it: "We support each other with Pride."
"I truly hope that everyone gets the love, support and hugs they deserve," Union said on social media in October.

Gabrielle Union’s ‘America’s Got Talent’ Firing Sparks SAG-AFTRA Probe Over What Went Down At NBC - Deadline
Stumbling from bad to worse, NBC now have a potential labor landmine under their feet with Gabrielle Union’s forced march exit from America’s Got Talent.
Just hours after the Comcast-owned network finally put out a statement that seemed to recognize the gravity of the situation and the allegations of racial and other discriminatory practices at work on the Simon Cowell created competition series, SAG-AFTRA has turned a new spotlight on the matter.
“We take issues of workplace health and safety very seriously,” the Gabrielle Carteris-led union said in a statement Sunday (read the full statement below) on the L.A. Finest’s star and AGT, which announced on November 22 Union was leaving after just one season. “While we have taken steps to investigate this matter, we have nothing to report now,” SAG-AFTRA’s statement added of the Union probe.
We understand the investigation is in an early stage, but a well informed source says that the union recognizes what a high profile and probably high wire act this is. Representing over 160,000 actors and other performers globally, SAG-AFTRA intends to be extremely thorough and timely simultaneously because of the claims being made and the manner in which they were handled by the show, its producers and subsequently the network.
Tonight, NBC said that they had “nothing further” to say “beyond the statement we sent this morning” when contacted by Deadline on SAG-AFTRA’s confirmation of a probe into what really went down at AGT this past season.As support for the fired Union became deeper and louder the past week, NBC and producers Fremantle and Cowell’s Syco said earlier today that they were “working with Ms. Union through her representatives to hear more about her concerns, following which we will take whatever next steps may be appropriate.”
Now, in a town already experiencing labor tensions, that work may be proving a bit more urgent.
HERE IS SAG-AFTRA’S FULL STATEMENT ON THEIR INVESTIGATION FOR GABRIELLE UNION
We take issues of workplace health and safety very seriously. We immediately reached out to Ms. Union’s representatives when these reports came to light. It is our practice to work closely with members who reach out to us and their representatives in instances like this, as that usually affords the best protection and best resolution for the affected member.
For certain matters, our investigation and enforcement needs to happen independently and we are prepared to handle this issue accordingly, as warranted.
Our enforcement action is usually handled confidentially to protect the member involved, and we typically do not publicize these matters unless the member requests that we do so.
While we have taken steps to investigate this matter, we have nothing to report now.

Shelley Morrison, ‘Will & Grace’ Actress, Dies at 83 - The New York Times
Shelley Morrison, whose 64-year acting career included playing the memorable maid Rosario on NBC’s “Will & Grace” from 1999 to 2006, died in Los Angeles on Sunday. She was 83.
Ms. Morrison died of heart failure, according to a statement from her husband, Walter Dominguez.
“Shelley’s greatest pride as an actress was in playing the indomitable Rosario in a comedy series that furthered the cause of social equity and fairness for L.G.B.T.Q. people,” Mr. Dominguez said in a statement. “She also took pride in portraying a strong, loving yet feisty Latina character.”
He added: “She believed that the best way to change hearts and minds was through comedy.”
The daughter of Spanish immigrants, Ms. Morrison was born and raised in the Bronx, where a street sign carries her name at 159th Street and Grand Concourse Boulevard as part of the Bronx Walk of Fame. After moving to Los Angeles, she attended Los Angeles City College and began her stage career, becoming one of the city’s first female stage producers.
She would later move into film and television, including playing Sister Sixto on “The Flying Nun” in the late 1960s. She would appear in dozens of other television shows, including “Murder She Wrote,” “L.A. Law,” “Home Improvement” and “Columbo.”
But she was best known for her work on “Will & Grace,” where she played a maid to Karen, played by Megan Mullally. As one of the few characters willing to stand up to her socialite boss, Rosario became a fan favorite.
“She reminds me a lot of my own mother, who loved animals and children, but she would not suffer fools,” Ms. Morrison said of her character in a biography released by her publicist.
She and her husband met in 1973 and together adopted three sons and three daughters through a Native American ceremony. She lived in the same apartment building in Los Angeles for 69 years, promising her parents, who had also moved there, she would always take care of it.

Watch TOM ARAYA Bid Emotional Goodbye To Fans At Last-Ever SLAYER Concert - BLABBERMOUTH.NET
Thousands of fans of SLAYER fans witnessed the band's last-ever concert at The Forum in Inglewood, California on Saturday night (November 30) during the second of two last tour dates dubbed "The Final Campaign".
At the conclusion of SLAYER's set, bassist/vocalist Tom Araya addressed the crowd, thanking the group's fans for supporting him and his bandmates for nearly four decades.
"Thank you. Thank you very much," he said. "I want to thank you for sharing your time with us. Time is precious. So I thank you for sharing that time with us. Thank you. I'm gonna miss you guys. But the most important thing I want to thank you for being a part of my life. Thank you. Good night. You guys be safe."
The setlist for the show was as follows:
01. South Of Heaven
02. Repentless
03. Postmortem
04. World Painted Blood
05. Hate Worldwide
06. War Ensemble
07. Stain Of Mind
08. Disciple
09. When The Stillness Comes
10. Born Of Fire
11. Payback
12. Seasons In The Abyss
13. Jesus Saves
14. Chemical Warfare
15. Hell Awaits
16. Dead Skin Mask
17. Show No Mercy
18. Raining Blood
19. Mandatory Suicide
20. Angel Of Death
SLAYER's final world tour began on May 10, 2018 with the band's intention to play as many places as possible, to make it easy for the fans to see one last SLAYER show and say goodbye. By the time the 18-month trek wrapped at the Forum, the band had completed seven tour legs plus a series of one-off major summer festivals, performing more than 140 shows in 30 countries and 40 U.S. states.
SLAYER's final world tour has been a wild ride. Three bus drivers, four truck drivers, and a crew of 32 have traveled all over the world to set the stage for this farewell. At most shows, SLAYER's pyro expert set off 160 pounds of propane and 10 liters of 99% isopropyl alcohol, prompting the Phoenix New Times reviewer to comment on the "eyebrow-singeing pyrotechnics that could be felt even 10 rows behind the pit." In Toronto, one diehard fan was ejected from the concert before SLAYER took the stage, so jumped into Lake Ontario (that surrounds the Budweiser Arena) and swam back to the venue. The Tampa Bay Times' Jay Cridlin wrote, "Beginning with the throttling opener 'Repentless', SLAYER tore through their set like a flaming cigarette boat across the river Styx, charring up a vicious circle pit by the stage," and Detroit's Gary Graff noted in his Oakland Press review the "10,000 headbangers who skipped the 'Game Of Thrones' finale to pay homage to the pioneering quartet." "The sheer physicality of their show was something to behold and was yet another indication that while the band may be calling it a career, they are going out on top, playing at their absolute best," wrote Andy Lindquist for the SF Sonic.
Araya talked about his possible retirement in a 2016 interview with Loudwire. He said: "At 35 years, it's time to collect my pension. [Laughs] This is a career move." He continued: "I'm grateful that we've been around for 35 years; that's a really long time. So, yeah, to me, it is. Because when we started off, everything was great, because you're young and invincible. And then there came a time where I became a family man, and I had a tough time flying back and forth. And now, at this stage, at the level we're at now, I can do that; I can fly home when I want to, on days off, and spend some time with my family, which is something I wasn't able to do when [my kids] were growing up. Now they're both older and mature. So now I take advantage of that." Araya added: "Yeah, it just gets harder and harder to come back out on the road. 35 years is a long time."
Tom also revealed another reason for his diminished enjoyment of the touring life. He said: "There's things that have gone on in my life that have made me change how I play as a bass player. I had neck surgery, so I can't headbang anymore. And that was a big part of what I enjoyed doing what I do — singing and headbanging. I liked knowing that I was one of the fucking badass headbangers. That played a big part. Now I just groove with the music, which is cool, because I'm grooving with the music and the feel of the songs, so that's changed a little for me."
SLAYER has been touring in support of its latest album, "Repentless", which was released in September 2015 via Nuclear Blast. That effort marked the band's first release since the death of SLAYER's co-founding guitarist Jeff Hanneman.
Hanneman contracted necrotizing fasciitis, also known as flesh-eating disease, in January 2011 from a spider bite in his backyard. The infection ravaged the flesh and tissues of Hanneman's arm, leading to numerous surgeries, skin grafts and intense periods of rehab that forced him into semi-retirement and left him near death at several points.
Hanneman eventually died in May 2013 from alcohol-related cirrhosis of the liver. He is credited for writing many of SLAYER's classic songs, including "Angel Of Death" and "South Of Heaven".
Original SLAYER drummer Dave Lombardo was effectively fired from the band after sitting out the group's Australian tour in February/March 2013 due to a contract dispute with the other members of SLAYER. He has since been replaced by Paul Bostaph, who was previously SLAYER's drummer from 1992 until 2001 and recorded four albums with the band.
