Haron Osbourne called Kanye West “embarrassing” after the billionaire rapper’s fashion label received a US government loan designed to avoid mass layoffs amid the pandemic.
West’s Yeezy company has been approved for a loan of between $ 2 million and $ 5million (around £ 1.6-4million), which has kept 106 jobs, according to official figures.
Appearing on The Talk, Osbourne said West should return the money to the government.

The 43-year-old has long coveted that status, and the magazine said he accused Forbes of “deliberately snubbing me” when he refused to classify him as a billionaire a year earlier.
This week, he gave a high-profile and hair-raising interview with the same outlet, describing his presidential credentials, although he has already missed the deadline to appear on the ballot in a number of US states.
West said he was against abortion, against vaccinations and against praying for school.
