Fashion Police’ to be put on hold till September

E! has made the decision to take the down the TV show to ‘refresh’ it following the departures of Kelly Osbourne and Kathy Griffin and in the wake of the controversy surrounding fellow host, Giuliana Rancic‘s comments about Zendaya Coleman‘s dreadlocks smelling like ‘weed’.
A statement released by E! said: ‘We look forward to taking this opportunity to refresh the show before the next awards season. Our talented co-hosts Giuliana Rancic and Brad Goreski, along with Executive Producer Melissa Rivers, will continue their roles as we evolve the show into its next chapter for the legions of ‘Fashion Police’ fans around the world.’
The decision to delay the show's return comes six days after Griffin announced via Twitter that she was leaving the show she only joined in January as the replacement for the late Joan Rivers. And her announcement came on the heels of Osbourne's resignation, who said on Feb. 27 that was she was stepping down from the show she helped to launch in 2010 to "pursue other opportunities."
The mini-exodus was fueled by the show's decision to air a joke about Zendaya's hairstyle at last month's Academy Awards. Rancic kicked up controversy after she said that the Disney star, who wore dreadlocks, looked like "she smells like patchouli or weed." Earlier this month, Griffin told a Chicago newspaper that "I wouldn't have said the joke in the first place" and Rancic shouldn't have anyone write jokes for her.
Rancic has "enough great insider gossip from actually being on the red carpet," Griffin added. "That's what fans want to hear the next day. Just talk and be yourself."
Khloe Kardashian, Chrissy Teigen, Amber Rose and Naya Rivera are among the favourites to take over from Kelly and Kathy on the panel.
