Sharon Osbourne responds to LA altercation

Sharon Osbourne and agent Renee Tab give conflicting accounts of an LA restaurant altercation, with Osbourne's publicist alleging a vicious assault.

Sharon Osbourne and Renee Tab, an entertainment agent for International Creative Management, were reportedly involved in what has been referred to as an "altercation" in an LA restaurant last Thursday. Needless to say there are two sides to the story. In a statement Osbourne's publicist claimed Tab hit out at Osbourne in what she described as a "vicious" assault that led to Sharon being taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to be treated for a dislocated jaw, chipped tooth and sprained neck. Ever the diplomat Kelly Osbourne later added that: "All I know is she punched my mom in the face and my mom has a black and blue face," adding that had she been there to defend her mom, "I'd be in jail right now," she said. Tab, for her part, says Sharon has exaggerated, and that the altercation only occurred after Osbourne spit on her. Apparantly there has been bad blood between Osbourne and Tab ever since a New Year's Eve party at the Osbourne’s house. Tab wasn't an official guest, but she won a raffle the Osbournes ran, the prize for which was a $15,000 diamond necklace. Sharon claimed because she wasn't a proper guest she didn't deserve the prize – and so the feud began.
