Kelly Osbourne knew that her father, Ozzy Osbourne, would “never” get over his Black Sabbath exit prior to his death.
In Ozzy’s new documentary, “Ozzy: No Escape From Now,” the Osbourne family detailed the rock star’s health battles and struggles starting in 2018, and concluding with his death on July 22, 2025.
One moment in the documentary, Ozzy’s daughter said, “He’ll never get over getting fired from Black Sabbath.” In 1979, Ozzy’s fellow Black Sabbath bandmates – Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward — decided to part ways with him, citing his heavy drinking and drug use and the group’s creative difficulties.
Osbourne was the frontman for Black Sabbath during the 1970s, known for his “Prince of Darkness” nickname and his rock and roll antics.
OZZY OSBOURNE REUNITING WITH BLACK SABBATH FOR FINAL SHOW
In the documentary, it showed that Ozzy and Black Sabbath reunited for his last show earlier this year.
At the end of the documentary, Ozzy is sitting on a chair in his house when he admits it will be a “miracle” for him to get through his final show. Prior to taking the stage, the rock star battled a cracked vertebrae, sepsis and pneumonia.
Ozzy called his condition “crippling.”
In the documentary, Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, was supportive the entire way. In the final scenes, Ozzy looked forward to hanging up his mic so he could spend more time with his wife.
“You are f–king Iron Man,” Sharon said of Ozzy, referring to one of Black Sabbath’s most iconic songs.
In “Ozzy: No Escape From Now,” the musician told the camera that he hoped he didn’t think of Sharon while he was up on that stage during his final concert because it would have brought him to tears.
Prior to his final performance, Ozzy reflected on his current health and admitted he didn’t expect to be alive in his 70s.
“I shouldn’t have lived past 40,” Ozzy said. “If my life is coming to an end, I really can’t complain about it. It’s been a great life.”
During the documentary, Ozzy made it clear that he did not want to die a “nobody.” He said he came from nothing and explained that he had “voices” in his head that would just call him a failure. Ozzy nicknamed the voices “the committee,” which was a prominent theme on his last album, “Patient Number 9.”
