John Michael "Ozzy" Osbourne (born 3 December 1948) is an English singer, songwriter, actor and television personality. He rose to prominence during the 1970s as the lead vocalist of the heavy metal band Black Sabbath, during which he adopted the nickname "The Prince of Darkness".
Osbourne was fired from the band in 1979 due to alcohol and drug problems, but he went on to have a successful solo career, releasing eleven studio albums, the first seven of which were all awarded multi-platinum certifications in the United States. Osbourne has since reunited with Black Sabbath on several occasions.
Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars to Drop New Song, ‘Die With a Smile,’ Tonight

15) at midnight ET / 9 p.m. PT, Gaga announced on social media Thursday. A post shared by Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) Little is known about the song at the moment, although the two appear to be dressed in country-leaning outfits in the artwork, which was released along with the announcement — if that’s the case, then the artists will be the latest of a battalion of pop artists to “go country” this year, led by Beyonce and Post Malone.
It seems likely that Grammy-winning songwriter-producer Andrew Watt — who came up as a pop producer but has leaned heavily into rock, producing the Rolling Stones’ “Hackney Diamonds” last year as well as projects with Elton John, Ozzy Osbourne and others — is involved as well: He also posted on social media about the Gaga/Bruno song on Thursday.
The song is the first new headlining music in years from both artists — Mars since his Grammy-winning Silk Sonic project with Anderson .Paak two years ago, and Gaga since her 2020 “Chromatica” album, although she made a show-stopping appearance with the Rolling Stones on “Sweet Sounds of Heaven” from “Hackney Diamonds” last year.
