E! Reportedly Edited Out Part Of Giuliana Rancic's Zendaya Comment

Giuliana Rancic's infamous comment on "Fashion Police" about Zendaya's hair was possibly taken out of context in post-production.



That's the claim from People, which stated Wednesday that E! Entertainment allegedly edited out part of the joke that was written for Rancic before the episode aired. News of the tweaked dialogue was also published by TheWrap on Friday.



Rancic was criticized for saying Zendaya's dreadlocks smelled "like patchouli oil" or "weed." But in a script obtained by TheWrap, Rancic preceded those remarks by saying, "And it's just like too Boho. Zendaya is more high fashion. The hair to me, on her, is making her a little Boho." (A reporter for People Magazine saw the tape as well, before it was edited.)



According to The Wrap, before the host was even able to finish the joke, she was cut off by Kathy Griffin, who made a zinger about The Grateful Dead -- implying the comments were about Zendaya looking like a hippie, rather than there being any racial undertones.



Reps for E! Entertainment and Rancic were not immediately available for comment.



In the wake of the remark as it aired on E!, Rancic was slammed by many, including Zendaya.



"There is a fine line between what is funny and disrespectful. Someone said something about my hair at the Oscars that left me in awe. Not because I was relishing in rave outfit reviews, but because I was hit with ignorant slurs and pure disrespect," she wrote on Instagram. "To say that an 18-year-old young woman with locs must smell of patchouli oil or 'weed' is not only a large stereotype but outrageously offensive."



Despite what may have happened behind the scenes, Rancic did shoulder the blame herself and apologize.



"Something I said did cross the line," Rancic said in her apology. "I didn’t intend to hurt anybody, but I’ve learned it is not my intent that matters. It’s the result. And the result is that people are offended, including Zendaya, and that is not okay. Therefore, I want to say to Zendaya and anyone else out there that I have hurt, that I am so, so sincerely sorry.”
