The larger-than-life frontman of the pioneering heavy metal band Black Sabbath Ozzy Osbourne has died. He was 76.

Mr Rumney, who plays in a band called Zero, said Black Sabbath had been a "big part" of his life since he was 12. He and his bandmates paid tribute to the momentous day Earth became Black Sabbath with a blue plaque in Workington in 2022.

Yungblud vowed to cover one of Black Sabbath's classic songs in honor of Ozzy Osbourne.

Kelly Osbourne is mourning the loss of her father Ozzy following his death on Tuesday. Osbourne posted a brief message to her Instagram stories on Thursday afternoon. “I feel unhappy I am so sad,” she wrote. “I lost the best friend I ever had.”

And, while the world will never see another frontman quite like Ozzy, Zakk Sabbath will pay his respects to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group on tour with special guest tribute acts Bonfire (AC/DC), Use Your Illusion (Guns ‘N Roses) and Dark Label Society (formed by a Black Label Society member) this fall and winter.
