Travis Barker brought Ozzy Osbourne's DNA ahead of Black Sabbath final show

Travis Barker brought Ozzy Osbourne's DNA ahead of Black Sabbath final show

Daily Mirror2 days ago
After the announcement of Ozzy selling his DNA in 10 cans, Blink-182's Travis Barker ensured he was able to land one of the empty cans
Blink-182's Travis Barker has revealed he bought Ozzy Osbourne's saliva for $450 in wild DNA stunt.
Rock legend Ozzy, 76, has teamed up with canned water brand Liquid Death for a bizarre new release called Infinitely Recyclable Ozzy. And while fans thought it might be a limited-edition flavour, they'll be shocked to know they won't even get to drink it.

Instead, each can comes pre-drunk by Ozzy himself and filled with traces of his saliva and his signature, all for a jaw-dropping price of $450.

Only 10 cans were ever made, and Blink-182's Travis Barker, 49 snapped one up and flaunted the empty can by sharing a pic of the DNA can on Instagram.
It's not the first time Travis has shown his admiration of Ozzy, just last February he posted vintage rock shirts, he had for his son, Rocky and Ozzy was featured on one.
When the company dropped the launch, they branded it as a way to 'recycle the one-of-one star forever,' teasing: 'Once technology and federal law permit, you can replicate Ozzy and enjoy him for hundreds of years into the future.'
And Ozzy, never one to shy away from chaos, gave it his blessing - in true Prince of Darkness style.

'Clone me, you b**stards!' he said. 'Whatever you do, don't try freebasing it and never ever inject it. And don't even think about boofing it, you little perverts.'
It's not the first time the Black Sabbath frontman has stunned fans with his outrageous antics. Back in 1982, he infamously bit the head off a live bat during a concert - a moment that's gone down in rock history.

He later admitted he thought the bat was a rubber toy, but still needed a rabies shot after the incident. That wild stunt and the fact he somehow lived to tell the tale is part of why some fans think his DNA might genuinely be immortal.
Travis' decision to buy one of the limited-edition cans has only added to the buzz, and it's clear the drummer is just as fascinated by Ozzy as the rest of the world.

Marnie, who is expecting baby-number-three, this time posted a photo of her hand with the drip in. She wrote: 'Why am I always anemic,' followed by a crying face emoji. Aside from the two hospital photos, Marnie hasn't yet shared any other updates. Marnie is expecting a baby girl with singer partner Casey. She said the last few months have been hard physically, but she is excited to jump straight back into her content creating after giving birth. Last month, the star opened up to The Sun in an exclusive chat, saying: 'I don't feel at my most confident right this second, I've got to be honest. 'I am six months pregnant and pregnancy isn't really for me - I find it really tough. 'I've been really sick and I've really struggled. Pregnant Geordie Shore legend Marnie Simpson reveals gender of her unborn baby in sweet video 'At this second I don't feel my sexiest, but since reaching my 30s, I've recently felt the most confident within myself, physically, mentally, emotionally. 'I've just felt so strong and strong minded and my best.' The star had a very difficult first birth and while pregnant with her second child she insisted she would not have any more. She said at the time: 'I would not go to three,' she said. 'I think you've got to find the balance for yourselves. "We want to enjoy our lives as well. We've not waited too long to have kids and I feel like having two, we can give them the best life possible.' Marnie previously described her first labour, which lasted 28 hours, as traumatic and insisted on having a c-section the second time round. Marnie was diagnosed with a chronic UTI in 2016 and after giving birth to baby Rox in 2019, her symptoms began to get a lot worse. Marnie got engaged to X Factor singer Casey back in 2020, and they wed in May 2023. The pair met on the show Single AF in 2017. They confirmed their relationship just a few months after the show ended - a move that is against show rules but it didn't seem to worry the smitten love-birds.

Victoria Beckham's heartbreaking family message in anniversary tribute to David

Former Spice Girls singer Victoria Beckham has shared some sweet words about her family on her and David's 26th wedding anniversary - amid their family feud with son Brooklyn Victoria Beckham has made a heartbreaking comment about her family while paying tribute to her husband David on their wedding anniversary. The mum-of-four, 51, took to Instagram to gush over David, on their 26th wedding anniversary after they tied the knot on July 4, 1999. Sharing a throwback photo of herself and David sharing a passionate kiss in a swimming pool, Victoria wrote: "Another year, another chapter in our love story. I'm so proud of the beautiful family and life we've built together. You and our four incredible children complete me. I love you so much @davidbeckham. Here's to 26 years." ‌ The comments made about her 'beautiful family' and her incredible four children comes after months of a family feud with Victoria's eldest son Brooklyn, 26, who has distanced himself from his parents and siblings, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper-Seven, 13. ‌ David also reached out to his eldest son, Brooklyn – who he affectionately calls 'Buster' – in the midst of the family feud. Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, 30, left the newly-appointed Sir 'heartbroken' when they swerved his 50th birthday in May. The bash was attended by all of David's other kids: Romeo, Cruz and Harper as well as important other members of the Beckhams' inner circle. Brooklyn made no reference to his dad's milestone – or his long-awaited knighthood title – despite wishing his father-in-law and brother-in-law a happy birthday on social media. However, David, has now tried to reconnect with the hot sauce enthusiast, despite Brooklyn's repeated snubs, once again. Paying tribute to 'Lady Beckham' on their wedding anniversary, David thanked Victoria for giving him four children. Sharing a snap of the couple from their lavish nuptials in Ireland, he wrote: "26 years today you said YES to me. Happy Anniversary and thank you for giving me our beautiful children and building the life that we have together. ‌ "I love you Lady Beckham @victoriabeckham @brooklynpeltzbckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham #harperseven." Brooklyn's brother, Romeo also appeared to reach out to his brother but for very different reasons. Romeo sent a heartfelt message to his sibling following the tragic death of Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota. Diogo and his brother lost their lives on Thursday after their car crashed in Spain. Paying tribute to the footballers, Romeo shared a shared a passionate post about telling the people you love how much you appreciate them. ‌ Taking to Instagram with a string of broken hearted emojis, he shared a message, which read: "The people that truly love you and care for you will always be there." Brooklyn, meanwhile, is still keeping silent - apart from promoting his latest six-figure photoshoot with Nicola. The couple, who got married three years ago, posed up a storm for Italian brand Moncler in London, just two miles away from the Beckham's family home. ‌ On the day of the shoot, David was even closer to his son as he attended the Chelsea Flower Show, which was only a mile away. Photos from the shoot have finally been released, as Brooklyn and Nicola put on a very loved-up display. However, a source told The Mirror: 'The fact that Brooklyn was in the country and failed to see any of his family was heartbreaking. And not only that, but here he was posting about it.' "Brooklyn had kept the visit quiet from not only his mum and dad but his siblings and extended family. It was terribly sad that he had flown thousands of miles to London and hadn't engaged at all. It would have been very easy to meet up.'

Emily Atack cancels fly-on-the-wall reality show despite high hopes for series

Emily Atack has decided to scrap plans for a Disney+ reality show that would have documented her motherhood journey. The Inbetweeners star, 35, welcomed her first child, Barney James Garner, with her long-term partner Alistair Garner in June 2024. Although she was initially planning to work on a fly-on-the-wall series chronicling her experiences as a parent, Emily ultimately chose to shelve the project. An insider has claimed: "It's not entirely clear why she didn't pursue the show, particularly as it would have proved very lucrative to be working with the streaming giant. "It would have almost certainly proved very popular with viewers too. But it's fair to say she would have struggled time-wise to fit it in alongside all her other projects and, of course, her most important job of being a mother," they told The Sun. It's certainly true that Emily has not slowed down professionally. The actress is returning for the second series of Disney+ hit drama Rivals and is also teaming up with Danny Dyer to co-host a new game show for ITV. On top of these projects, Emily has been cast in a new Channel 5 thriller called The Rumour, which is being adapted into a TV series from the Sunday Times bestseller by Lesley Kara. She will be starring on the show alongside Joanne Whalley and Rachel Shenton. Lead actress Rachel has spoken about her excitement for the series, saying: "The Rumour is a story of a woman unravelling as she relentlessly pursues the truth. She's very relatable and the cast are amazing. It's lovely to work with so many women." Beyond her busy work schedule, the new mum has been soaking up precious time with her baby boy. Emily recently celebrated Barney's first birthday and made an emotional post about the occasion on Instagram, sharing a series of snapshots from his first year. She posted a picture of Barney sleeping on her chest shortly after he was born, sharing: "Happy 1st birthday to our son Barney James Garner. The Baby Barn Owl. I've dreamt of you my whole life. It was always you. I love you beyond words, our beautiful, BEAUTIFUL boy. You are so cherished my heart could burst." Emily also shared photos from her pregnancy, snaps of her and Alistair opening baby gifts, and sweet pictures of the family cuddling Barney. Last month Emily enjoyed a beach holiday with her family in Mevagissey, Cornwall, where she was seen carrying Barney in a sling while admiring the coastal views. The star previously told The Times that she felt lonely before settling down with Alistair, adding: "I feel like my whole life had been building up to that moment, not just getting a part in that show, but also my personal life. It feels like the stars have aligned. That is genuinely how it feels."
