Sorry, Us Weekly - calling it a "war" may be a slight exaggeration, but it's clear two well-known (ish) women aren't thrilled with one another right now: former "The Talk" co-stars Leah Remini and Sharon Osbourne.
The fracas began Monday after Remini, 41, claimed that Osbourne, 59, got her and Holly Robinson Peete fired from the wannabe "The View" daytime chatfest.
"Sharon thought me and Holly were 'ghetto' ... we were not funny, awkward and didn't know ourselves," the former "King of Queens" actress tweeted.
Naturally, Osbourne responded via Twitter: "I had absolutely nothing to do with her departure from the show ... Leah knows that I have never been in the position to hire or fire anyone on the show."
