IDK if she has addressed this, but was her firing from the Talk because of Scientology? I heard her Scientology habits made her unbearable, so they had to get rid of her.

Leah actually addressed her firing from The Talk before and said that it was because Sharon Osborne found her and Holly to be "too ghetto", not funny, and awkward.

Holly and Leah were the best part of that show.

Holly Robinson Peete ghetto? LMAO

[longslowslide]

Sharon is the type of person who thinks all black people are ghetto, let's be real. Her husband is famous for biting the heads off live bats and doing so many drugs that he has brain damage from it. But she thinks Holly is too ghetto?! WTF!

[veracity]

In her memoir, she also mentioned that she wanted the best for The Talk, to engage more, and went to bat for I want to say Sharon, too. Pissing off Julie Chen, the hand that fed them.

she also made a comment on hollywood reporter roundtable that i watched (ru paul and kris jenner were also there, how could i not) about how she wasn't great at listening and maybe she would have been better at talk shows if she was

Read her book, she talks about it. There are free pdf's you can easily find of it. It is really good.

Sharon was the queen B of the show, and Sarah and Julie would just go along with whatever she wanted. Leah and Holly were always suggesting things and addressing problems, and it kinda became you had to pick sides. Leah tried to gather everyone together to go to the network about something, and got into a big argument with Sharon. Then was let go along with Holly.
