Initially contrite on Twitter, Osbourne then went on the offense during the show's hiatus. She gave interviews to both Variety and Entertainment Tonight, claiming that she had been "set up" by the producers and was offered up as a "sacrificial lamb." Her publicist also issued a doozy of a statement, alluding to Remini and Robinson Peete's comments by noting, "The only thing worse than a disgruntled former employee is a disgruntled former talk show host." It's not typically the strategy of someone expecting to keep their job, so the writing seemed to be on the wall.

Primal Scream frontman Bobby Gillespie and Jehnny Beth are an odd coupling — he’s prone to loose, decadent, druggy overtures while she actually screams primally — and their differences become even more apparent on Utopian Ashes, a concept album of sorts that they made together about two lovers’ preamble to a divorce. And like any couple in disarray, the Venn diagram of their respective worlds seem only to intersect barely. When they do, it can be beautiful; when they don’t, it’s uncomfortable to be around, yet even then their unique talents can sometimes be a song’s savior.

He saw the entire thing as a lively, hands-on collaboration in which he’d give Spanish-speaking artists access to the original master recordings from the iconic 1978 LP and let them interpret the songs exactly how they wanted. He and the producer Sebastian Krys enlisted a varied set of musicians from around the world and watched as each of them added their own magic to the anticipated project, which is called Spanish Model and is out today via UMe.
