Ozzy Osbourne Posthumously Digs at Sting in Final Documentary

The posthumous documentary "Ozzy: No Escape From Now," set to release on Paramount+, offers an intimate look at Ozzy Osbourne's final years battling Parkinson's disease and other health issues while maintaining his signature humor. Despite his declining health, Ozzy took one last jab at longtime British rocker Sting, remarking, "it could have been worse. I could be Sting," underscoring their decades-long feud. The rivalry, partly fueled by contrasting public personas and past insults, was highlighted by Ozzy's wife Sharon, who described Sting as overly eager for knighthood and noted past public digs between the two musicians. Although there were moments suggesting a possible reconciliation, including a 2003 Grammys encounter where apologies were exchanged, the tension remained palpable until Ozzy's death in July 2024. The documentary also presents rare behind-the-scenes footage of Ozzy reflecting on his legacy, health struggles, and enduring rock career. These insights provide a poignant portrait of the legendary rocker facing the end of an era with candidness and wit.
