London, Nov 13 (ANI): Sharon Osbourne has said sorry for her verbal attack on Britain’s Got Talent runner-up Susan Boyle while on a radio show last week.

On micro-blogging site Twitter, Osbourne stated that she wanted to “apologise for getting a cheap laugh” at the Scottish singer’s expense, reports The BBC.

Earlier this month the 57-year-old appeared on Sirius XM Radio where she called Boyle a “lovely lady” who had been hit by “the ugly stick”.

In her apology, the America’s Got Talent judge said: “Susan Boyle is a lovely gracious woman and I took advantage of that by poking fun at her.

“I would never want to be responsible for hurting Susan and I must apologise for getting a cheap laugh at her expense.” (ANI)
