In a September 2, 2025, interview on the Independent Ink podcast, Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters harshly criticized Ozzy Osbourne, describing him as having brought “idiocy and nonsense” into popular culture over “hundreds of years.” He added he couldn’t care less about Black Sabbath or Osbourne’s notorious antics—such as the head-biting episodes—and even made a poor appearance of them himself. When corrected that it was actually a bat, not a chicken, Waters responded with a mortified reaction, saying “Oh my god, that’s even worse”
Jack Osbourne’s Response
Ozzy’s son, Jack Osbourne, fired back via Instagram, fiercely defending his father during grieving period. His response was blunt: “Hey Roger Waters – fu*** you. … My father always thought you were a cunt – thanks for proving him right.”
