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.
Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne has been praised for battling through his health issues to give a surprise performance at the Commonwealth Games Closing Ceremony at Alexander Stadium in Birmingham on Monday.
The 73 year old husband of former X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2019, and in June of this year, he underwent "life altering surgery".
Despite this, Ozzy put on an energetic performance as he entertained crowds, looking typically gothic in a pair of black jeans and a t-shirt with a long cover up that fell to the floor.The rocker wore heavy dark eye makeup and wore his long dark hair loose around his shoulders.
Ozzy's performance brought an end to the games, in which Australia come top of the medal leaderboard, while England came in second place - but had its most successful games ever.
