Yungblud is still mourning the loss of his “hero,” Ozzy Osbourne. In a recent interview, the breakdown. hitmaker revealed that the rock legend, nicknamed “The Prince of Darkness,” “meant everything to him.”
Yungblud and Ozzy shared a very strong and close bond, having first met in 2022 and developing a father-son-like relationship. After Osbourne’s death on July 22, Yungblud gave a touching eulogy at the Black Sabbath frontman’s funeral and also performed at Ozzy’s farewell gig, Back To The Beginning.
In a conversation with The Times, Yungblud expressed how the news of Osbourne’s death felt “overwhelming.” He told the publication, “I told a friend that I thought Ozzy had another five albums in him. And then he did the show and then he died. It’s so overwhelming.”
Holding back tears, the Zombie singer added, “I just love him and right till the very end he supported me. I get emotional, because I’ve loved him since I was about two.” He went on to say, “He taught me self-belief and so I’m going to take his spirit and make sure everybody knows for the rest of my life who Ozzy Osbourne was – he meant everything to me.”
Earlier this month, Yungblud posted a picture of a gift Ozzy Osbourne had given him: a cross necklace that the legendary War Pigs rocker had owned since 1991. He wrote in the caption: “goodnight oz. your light will forever shine. I love you.”
