In a new Metal Hammer interview, legendary Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne discussed looking for ‘crumbs’ of cocaine on the floor.
“Turning 70 doesn’t bother me. Whether I feel happy, sad or mad, it’s happening. I consider myself very lucky. There but for the grace of God go I, you know? I tried to do everything to the absolute fucking max when I was doing it. I’d be looking around for crumbs of coke on the floor, you know? I’m not proud of that, but I’m a survivor, I suppose.”
Ozzy Osbourne is ‘complaining’ and ‘miserable’ after a doctor diagnosed him with pneumonia recently, and he was admitted to the intensive care unit.
Asked how Ozzy is feeling almost five weeks after he was admitted to the the intensive care ward of Keck Hospital of University of Southern California, his Jack told Access in a recent interview, “Well, if this gauges where he’s at, he’s complaining a lot and he’s back to his normal routine. So everything’s A-okay there.”
Ozzy’s wife Sharon said, “That’s always a good sign, when he complains and he’s miserable. Then you know it’s good.” Jack added, “It’s when he’s happy and skipping around. You’re, like, ‘There’s something really wrong here. Call the doctor.'”
Ozzy Osbourne was recently forced to cancel more shows due to orders from his doctor.
“Following Ozzy’s recent postponement of UK and European tours due to ill health, the Download Japan team has been wishing for a speedy recovery in the hope that he would be able to perform at the festival. Unfortunately however, Ozzy has been forced to cancel his appearance at Download Japan 2019 on doctor’s orders. We apologize to his fans, and anyone inconvenienced by this news.
Ozzy, who has been suffering from pneumonia, has left the hospital, but has been told to continue to receive treatment at home for a period of six weeks. We wish Ozzy all the best for a full and speedy recovery, and a comeback show in Japan.
