Leah Remini Tweets About Being Fired from The Talk

Brooklyn-born Leah Marie Remini is known for her role as Carrie Heffernan on “The King of Queens," a CBS sitcom that ran for nine seasons. Remini also appeared as a co-host on the CBS talk show “The Talk,” until she was fired from the show last summer. Remini made headlines this week because of the posts she’s made on Twitter, blaming Sharon Osborne, another co-host on “The Talk,” for getting her and Holly Robinson Peete fired from the show. Remini tweeted that Osborne thought she and Robinson Peete were ghetto, as well as awkward and not funny. She states that Osborne’s interview on Howard Stern’s satellite radio show in December tipped her off about who was behind the firing.

Osborne responded to Remini’s claims on Twitter earlier this week, stating that she had nothing to do with Remini or Robinson Peete’s departures from the show. Remini countered Osborne’s comment by stating that Osborne has her phone number and if she wants to clear up the situation she could call her. Remini is currently filming a pilot for an ABC television show.
