She was born on 27 October in 1984, mostly known as an English fashion designer, singer and actress, best known for being the daughter of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne. She was thrust into the limelight after appearing on the reality series The Osbournes with her family, for which they won a 2002 Emmy Award for Outstanding Reality Programme.

Her debut album, Shut Up, was released by Epic Records in 2002 to moderate American sales, but good European sales. The lead single, a cover of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach", debuted with Houston rock band Pure Rubbish at the 2002 MTV Movie Awards.

  1. She has a new style)It was a short-lived 2010 trend with which stars such as Lady Gaga, Daphne Guinness, Kate Moss, Agyness Deyn, and Peaches Geldof briefly experimented before returning to their customary colours.
    But it seems Kelly Osbourne just can't get enough of the grey hair look.
    The 27-year-old stepped out onto the red carpet at last night's People's Choice Awards sporting a new silvery 'do, making a marked contrast to her 59-year-old mother Sharon's fiery red locks

  2. Kelly Osborne is a very talented girl. In 2004, she launched her own fashion line, Stiletto Killers, with her friend and former sponsor, Ali Barone. Stiletto Killers was a rock-inspired line of hoodies designed by Osbourne and Barone, emblazoned with cartoonish designs and punk rock phrases. There was also a more sophisticated couture branch, the SK Collection. Stiletto Killers closed in April 2006.

  4. Besides Kelly Michelle Lee Osbourne, I think we have to mention an important person for the history - James Cook. Captain James Cook, FRS, RN (27 October 1728 – 14 February 1779) was a British explorer, navigator, cartographer, and captain in the Royal Navy. Cook made detailed maps of Newfoundland prior to making three voyages to the Pacific Ocean, during which he achieved the first European contact with the eastern coastline of Australia and the Hawaiian Islands, and the first recorded circumnavigation of New Zealand.

  6. One more celebrity to be born on this day: Dylan Marlais Thomas (1914 – 1953), a Welsh poet and writer whose works include the poems, "Do not go gentle into that good night", "And death shall have no dominion", the "play for voices", Under Milk Wood, and stories and radio broadcasts. He became popular in his lifetime, and remained popular after his death; partly due to his larger than life character. Although writing exclusively in the English language, Thomas has been acknowledged as one of the most important Welsh poets of the 20th century. Noted for his original, rhythmic and ingenious use of words and imagery, Thomas' position as one of the great modern poets has been much discussed.
