Kelly Osbourne Criticizes Celebrities for Using L.A. Wildfires for Publicity

The TV personality condemned stars for turning disaster relief efforts into self-serving photo opportunities during the devastating Los Angeles wildfires.

Kelly Osbourne shared a now-deleted Instagram video accusing celebrities of exploiting the suffering caused by the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires for personal attention.
Though Osbourne did not name specific individuals, many online commenters speculated her criticism was directed at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who were photographed aiding fire victims and first responders.
The wildfires, which have burned over 40,000 acres and destroyed more than 12,300 structures, have caused 24 confirmed fatalities and displaced thousands of residents.
Osbourne’s remarks have sparked public debate, with some agreeing that celebrity involvement appears insincere, while others defended efforts like donations and volunteer work by public figures.
Other celebrities, including Jay Leno, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Beyoncé, have also contributed to relief efforts, with some making significant financial donations or providing essential supplies.
