Reality TV star, rock manager and mum Sharon Osbourne has expressed her regrets for taking a "cheap shot" at Scottish singer, Susan Boyle, the "Britain's Got Talent" breakout star of last season.

It was a radio show appearance with Opie & Anthony, with comic Jim Norton that Sharon got into a volley of insults over SuBo's appearance.

Osbourne had joked with the guys that Boyle looked like a "hairy a--hole" whom God hit "with a f---ing ugly stick."

"Susan Boyle is a lovely gracious woman and I took advantage of that by poking fun at her," PopEater reports that Osbourne wrote on her Facebook blog. "I would never want to be responsible for hurting Susan and I must apologize for getting a cheap laugh at her expense."
