Lauryn Hill's 2025 Met Gala Look Was All About the Birkin
Her choice of bag, meanwhile, was a total showstopper as well. Hill carried around a classic (and very luxurious) Hermès Kelly bag in cerulean blue—the ultimate status bag that offered the perfect pop of color to her look. A big Kelly in such a covetable color? It's almost as rare of a find as a splashy red carpet appearance from Hill herself! Combined, it was the most epic pairing. Now, Siri, please play 'Killing Me Softly'—because she was one of the most iconic divas of the night.

Ozzy Osbourne Dead At Age 76
Ozzy Osbourne has sadly been confirmed dead at age 76. The heavy metal legend had just finished a final farewell concert for fans, and now his family has issued a statement to confirm his passing just several weeks later. Osbourne passed away on the morning of July 22, following several years of ongoing health battles including a diagnosis of Parkinson's he revealed in 2020. Here's what his family had to say regarding his death: 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love.' The 76-year-old heavy metal star, who helped pioneer the aforementioned genre of music with his band Black Sabbath, recently had a final concert titled ' Back to the Beginning ' on July 5. Sadly, it occurred only a few weeks ago, and in a location at Villa Park in Aston, Birmingham, England, which is near where the band first originated in 1968. The concert was notable even prior to Osbourne's death, especially for being what was said to be his final show, one which he performed while seated at a throne due to his poor health. The event was a massive success, however, and the event sported a large audience both in person and online via pay per view. It's certainly a devastating time in the history of music for Ozzy Osbourne to be dead, especially with the artist having spent so much of his life pioneering new styles of music and iconic songs. Fortunately, he was always adamant about wanting to give a final show prior to his death, and it seems as though he got his wish. Osbourne is survived by his wife, Sharon, as well as their children, Aimee, Kelly, Jack, and his two older children, Jessica and Louis, who were form his previous marriage with Thelma Riley.

Philadelphia radio DJs remember Ozzy Osbourne: "He started it all"
Seventeen days after appearing on stage with his Black Sabbath band mates for the final time, Ozzy Osbourne died Tuesday at the age of 76. Osbourne is known both as a pioneer of heavy metal and as a goofy and lovable father on a hit reality TV show of the early 2000s. He was born John Michael Osbourne on Dec. 3, 1948. 93.3 WMMR DJ Jacky BamBam said, "He started it all … Ozzy was your Prince of Darkness." "Watching Ozzy on stage, listening to his music, it gives you life," DJ Sara Parker said. "It makes you feel that wild energy that makes you just want to push forward." Osbourne and his Black Sabbath bandmates have been referred to as the Beatles of heavy metal, pioneers whose ingenuity and sound influenced countless acts who came after them. "He was a little cuckoo for cuckoo puffs, but that's why we loved him," BamBam added. That impact extended far beyond the industry, however. "As a kid growing up, you know, not knowing where you fit in this world, and to have something that you found not only the music that you like but the community that surrounds it and people that are like-minded with that, you know, it really set the course of my life," WMMR DJ Ryan Shuttleworth said. Black Sabbath's first U.S. concert was at Glassboro State College — now Rowan University — on Oct. 30, 1970. Years later, a South Jersey kid who would graduate from Rowan came across and was touched by the band and its energetic lead singer. Mike DiFranco, a lifelong fan, mentioned one of his songs, "I Don't Want to Change the World," which he interprets to mean, just be you. He added that if not for a friendship he formed with a fellow Osbourne fan in high school — his now brother-in-law — he may not be married to his wife today. Osbourne lived life to the fullest, and that's exactly how he'll be remembered.

His family confirmed the news, sharing that Ozzy passed peacefully, surrounded by loved ones. His death follows a long battle with Parkinson's and chronic health issues, closing the final chapter on a career that reshaped music, television, and pop culture.

His family confirmed the news, sharing that Ozzy passed peacefully, surrounded by loved ones. His death follows a long battle with Parkinson's and chronic health issues, closing the final chapter on a career that reshaped music, television, and pop culture. From heavy metal icon to reality TV pioneer, Ozzy's influence is unmatched — loud, unpredictable, and unforgettable. Forging the Sound of Heavy Metal Born in Birmingham, England on December 3, 1948, Osbourne's early life gave little clue of the legacy he'd build. That all changed in 1968 when he co-founded Black Sabbath with Geezer Butler, Bill Ward, and Tony Iommi. Named after a Boris Karloff horror film, the band developed a slow, ominous sound that laid the groundwork for heavy metal. Albums like Paranoid (1970), Master of Reality (1971), and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (1973) introduced a new kind of sonic darkness — and Ozzy's ghostly vocals made it unforgettable. Dubbed the 'Prince of Darkness' for his theatrical stage presence and wild reputation, Ozzy was just as beloved for his offstage sincerity. After parting ways with Sabbath in 1979 due to substance abuse, he launched a solo career that began with Blizzard of Ozz (1980) and never let up. He also created Ozzfest, a festival that grossed over $100 million and helped put countless hard rock and metal bands on the map. His final live performance — a Black Sabbath reunion on July 5, 2025, in his hometown — saw him seated on a throne, offering a heartfelt farewell to a crowd of 40,000. Changing TV Forever with The Osbournes In 2002, Ozzy once again broke new ground — this time in reality TV. MTV's The Osbournes, which ran until 2005, gave viewers a fly-on-the-wall look at his eccentric family life with wife Sharon and kids Jack and Kelly. The show was loud, messy, and deeply relatable, turning Ozzy into a baffled-yet-lovable dad figure and launching a new era of celebrity reality shows. Unlike many of its successors, The Osbournes felt real — sometimes painfully so. The series didn't shy away from Sharon's cancer battle or Ozzy's near-fatal ATV crash. The show quickly became MTV's most-watched program and even won a 2002 Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Reality Program. In a 2023 interview with Spin, Ozzy recalled: 'What you saw was what really went on. It wasn't contrived.' That raw honesty helped the series pave the way for shows like Keeping Up with the Kardashians, but it also set a standard few have matched. Ozzy later appeared in Osbournes Reloaded (2009), a variety show, and Ozzy & Jack's World Detour (2016–2018), a travel documentary series with his son. A planned BBC docuseries, Home to Roost, was announced in 2022 but remains unreleased due to his declining health. From Soundtracks to Cameos: A Pop Culture Fixture Ozzy's voice wasn't just made for records — it helped shape movie soundtracks and gave life to a number of film roles. His music enhanced iconic moments in films like *Iron Man*, *School of Rock*, and *Almost Famous*, while his quirky and sometimes eerie persona lent itself perfectly to the screen. Here are some of his standout appearances: Trick or Treat (1986): Played a reverend in his feature film debut, poking fun at his own 'satanic' image.

A biopic based on his memoir I Am Ozzy is in development at Sony, with Ozzy hoping the lead role goes to a talented unknown British actor. He made guest appearances on shows ranging from The Talk to Sesame Street, showing off the full range of his personality. Fans online continue to hail The Osbournes as one of the greatest reality shows ever and praise Ozzy for transcending generations. Leaving a Legacy That Won't Be Forgotten Ozzy Osbourne's influence can't be overstated. He didn't just help create heavy metal — he became its face. Artists like Billy Corgan and John Darnielle credit him as a major influence, and his honesty and vulnerability on reality TV helped change public perceptions of rock stars. He leaves behind his wife Sharon, their children Aimee, Kelly, and Jack, and a growing number of grandchildren — not to mention millions of devoted fans around the world. His final concert film, Back to the Beginning: Ozzy's Final Bow, is set to be released in 2026. It promises to celebrate both his life and the enduring power of Black Sabbath. Though the Prince of Darkness has taken his final bow, his music, his image, and his voice will live on. Forever loud.
