Ozzy Osbourne Responds to Internet Hoax: ‘I’m Not Dead’

Ozzy Osbourne has responded to a web-based loss of life hoax, confirming that he’s very a lot alive.

“I’m not dead,” the long-lasting singer declared on the most recent episode of The Osbournes podcast (video under). “I’m not going any-fucking-where. And I’m gonna go up and do some more gigs before I’m finished anyway.”

As Ozzy defined it, he was caught off guard by a video that was circulating on-line suggesting he had handed.

“The thing on YouTube, it’s got ‘Celebrities Who Have Died Today,’ and there’s a picture of me,” the Prince of Darkness defined. “And I go, ‘I’m not dead. I’m not really dead … Just a little flesh wound,’” the rocker continued, jokingly quoting Monty Python. “It’s a bit fucking much, isn’t it?”

Ozzy went on to notice that the clickbait video was strategically phrased to keep away from any potential lawsuits. “What they do is, they kind of say you’re dead-ish,” he defined. “It’s kind of weird the way they word it.”

“There’s so many sick fuckers out there,” added his spouse Sharon in a pointed comment in the direction of the loss of life hoax video’s creators.

Meanwhile, Ozzy’s son, Jack, provided a wry suggestion.

“We’ll do the viking burial,” he quipped. “I’ll shoot a flaming arrow on your raft.”
