This is really heating up. Maybe eventually they’ll get someone other than a rich lich to make an accusation

Fun excerpt from her Wikipedia page:

In 2019, Osbourne appeared on the British panel show Would I Lie to You? in which guests make statements about themselves and fellow panellists guess whether or not the statements are true. She claimed that during a house fire she made her assistant go back into the house to save pieces of art. She also claimed that she ripped an oxygen mask off the assistant and gave it to her dog. She then proceeded to fire him when he did not find the situation funny, believing he might have lung damage from smoke inhalation, saying “he showed absolutely no sense of humour” during the fire. After the usual deliberations by fellow panellists, she confirmed the incident to be true.

    Sharon is the Yoko of metal. I really hope that doesn’t come off sexist, but like…she’s wrecked so much shit.

    I know the Yoko issue is complicated, but ya know, public perception and all.

    I’ll stop rambling.

      She did one good thing: before she married Ozzy, she was the one who introduced Ronnie James Dio to Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler after Black Sabbath had split with Ozzy. Sharon Osbourne is indirectly responsible for Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules. Granted, those plus the Live Evil album weren’t great for the mental health of anyone involved, but hey – “War Pigs” with frickin’ Dio on vocals? Sign me the fuck up.

      I may be misremembering, but isn’t she a part of the reason Bill Ward didn’t join the reunion tour or am I thinking of something else? That was ten years ago so I’m probably not remembering

      At least Yoko has made interesting stuff.
