ath Bloody Sabbath. His music — known for its heavy riffs and dark themes — helped shape an era, selling over 100 million records worldwide through both band and solo work. Osbourne became infamous for his wild stage antics, including the notorious moment in 1982 when he bit the head off a bat thrown on stage — an act he claimed he believed was a toy until it was too late. He later capitalized on the bizarre moment by selling plush bats with detachable heads. Despite his controversies and struggles with addiction, he reinvented himself in the 2000s as a reality TV star on "The Osbournes", offering fans an unfiltered glimpse into his family life, gaining him new audiences beyond the music world. Born John Michael Osbourne in Aston, Birmingham, he grew up in a working-class household as one of six children. After leaving school at 15, and spending time in jail for burglary, he found his calling in music — a path that took him from factory floors to global stardom. “I’ve done some bad things in my time. But I ain’t the devil. I’m just John Osbourne: a working class kid from Aston who quit his job in the factory and went looking for a good time,” he wrote in his 2010 biography. Osbourne leaves behind his wife and longtime manager Sharon, children Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and grandchildren. His legacy lives on through generations of fans and a heavy metal movement he helped pioneer.
