Ozzy Osbourne’s Son Responds Angrily to Roger Waters’ Criticism

Roger Waters, founding member of Pink Floyd, sparked controversy with disparaging remarks about the late Ozzy Osbourne, criticizing his music, persona, and infamous stage antics during an August interview. Waters dismissed Black Sabbath's significance and mocked Ozzy's act of biting the head off a bat, which drew sharp condemnation from Ozzy's son Jack Osbourne, who called Waters "pathetic and out of touch" and accused him of seeking attention through insults. Jack's response, delivered via Instagram and the social media platform X, emphasized that Ozzy himself had a low opinion of Waters, reinforcing the family's defense of the late singer's legacy. The backlash extended to Ozzy's daughter Kelly Osbourne, who condemned derogatory comments made on WWE programming about their father and his hometown of Birmingham, England. Ozzy’s wife Sharon Osbourne has also focused on preserving his legacy and their iconic partnership following his death from cardiac-related causes. The dispute underscores the ongoing tensions around Ozzy Osbourne's cultural impact and the contrasting perspectives within the rock community about his career and persona.
