After Kelly Osbourne quit-slash-got fired from E!'s Fashion Police on Friday, reports surfaced quickly that E! special correspondent Khloe Kardashian was in the running to replace the purple-haired style critic.

Kelly stood up for pal Zendaya after her fellow Fashion Police co-host Giuliana Rancic made an inappropriate comment about the dreadlocked beauty during the network's Oscar coverage -- saying Z's braids probably smelled like "weed."

So do you think reality queen Khloe would be a good replacement? She sure knows her sh*t about fashion ... but frankly, her Oscar fashion coverage left a little to be desired -- basically, she hates everything that everyone wears and thinks the most expensive red-carpet looks like "inappropriate" and more suited to "date night." She literally said that about everyone's dresses! I mean, if you wear $8K leather biker jackets and $1500 stilettos to the supermarket, who else can live up to that?!
