Kelly Osbourne engaged to Slipknot's Sid Wilson, Entertainment News
The 40-year-old star's long-term partner, Slipknot rocker Sid Wilson, got down on one knee to pop the question to Kelly — with whom he has two-year-old son Sidney — backstage at her dad Ozzy Osbourne's final ever Black Sabbath concert in Birmingham on Saturday (July 5) night.
Kelly shared a video of her 48-year-old partner's proposal, which featured her dad and mum Sharon Osbourne unwinding with family and friends.
Sharon could be heard saying: "You've got to be quiet!"
Sid then took Kelly's hand and said: "Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world!"
But before he could ask the important question, Paranoid hitmaker Ozzy jumped in.
He laughed: "F*** off, you are not marrying my daughter!"
Sid then continued: "I want to spend the rest of my life with you — and ask in front of all of our family and friends, Kelly, will you marry me?"
Kelly looked stunned before Sid stood up and put a ring on her finger while those around them cheered.
The former Fashion Police star captioned the clip: "Oh and this happened yesterday!"
Kelly had earlier hailed Black Sabbath's Back to the Beginning concert one of the "most magical experiences" of her life.
She said in a video shared to her Instagram Story: "I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you.
"Thank you to everyone who came to the show last night, [and] thank you to everybody who was involved in the show last night. You have no idea what it did for my dad.
"It was one of the most magical experiences of my entire life, and if I keep talking, I'm probably going to end up crying again. So, that's all I'll say for now. Thank you."
The epic concert marked the 76-year-old rocker's official retirement and was staged to raise funds for charities including Cure Parkinson's, Birmingham Children's Hospital and Acorns Children's Hospice.
Ozzy reunited with Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward for the first time since 2005 at Villa Park for the show.
The stadium erupted into huge cheers when Ozzy appeared on stage and he told fans: "You have no idea how I feel."
42,000 fans packed into Villa Park for the sold-out Back to the Beginning show, which saw Ozzy and Black Sabbath return to their hometown, 56 years after the band was formed in the city.
Ozzy performed a selection of hits including I Don't Know, Blizzard of Ozz and Suicide Solution.
Anthrax, Guns N' Roses and Metallica all performed during the 10-hour concert, while there were also surprise video messages from the likes of Dolly Parton and Jack Black.
Ozzy has undergone seven surgeries in the past five years, and he has also been living with Parkinson's disease since 2003.

BIRMINGHAM, England - A day-long celebration of Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne began in Birmingham on July 5, as tens of thousands of fans awaited what the heavy metal legends have said will be their last live performance together. Nearly six decades after helping pioneer heavy metal music with an eponymous song that enthralled and frightened audiences, Black Sabbath are set to return to their home of Aston for Back to the Beginning at Villa Park stadium. Over a dozen acts including Metallica, Slayer, Tool and Guns N' Roses are set to perform to a sea of fans in black band T-shirts with a mix of their own music and renditions of Black Sabbath numbers. Atlanta-based rockers Mastodon kicked off the music, followed by Anthrax, Halestorm and Lamb of God. Black Sabbath are due on stage later. The one-off gig, with profits going to charity, has been billed as Osbourne's last performance, five years after the 76-year-old 'Prince of Darkness' revealed he had Parkinson's disease. 'The goal is a very simple one, and that is to create the greatest day in the history of heavy metal as a salute to the band that started it all,' Rage Against the Machine member Tom Morello, the music director for the event, told Metal Hammer magazine. The gig will unite Sabbath's original lineup of bassist Geezer Butler, guitarist Tony Iommi, drummer Bill Ward and frontman Osbourne for the first time in 20 years. Top stories Swipe. Select.

'When I had a tough time in my teenage years, I listened to Black Sabbath, and Ozzy has got me through a lot.' Lisa Meyer, who organised a Black Sabbath exhibition in Birmingham in 2019, said the band built an enduring legacy by offering a heavier alternative to the Beatlemania and hippy music of the 1960s. 'That's what really resonated with fans, giving a voice to that rage, anger and frustration, but doing it in a really cathartic way,' Meyer, co-founder of the Home of Metal project, told Reuters. Sabbath murals and banners have appeared across the city, in the central England, whose factories were one of the influences for the band's heavy sound of loud, distorted guitar and aggressive vocals.

Ozzy Osbourne selling cans containing his DNA for fans to try cloning him, Entertainment News
Ozzy Osbourne is selling empty cans containing his DNA for £335 (S$580) — so fans can "try to clone" the music legend. The Prince of Darkness has teamed up with Liquid Death, whose tagline is "murder your thirst", on the bizarre product dubbed Infinite Ozzy. The 10 empty cans Ozzy drank from — and has signed — were re-sealed with the rocker's DNA sealed inside. Liquid Death's PR team said: "Once technology and federal law permit, fans can use this DNA to try to clone Ozzy in the future and enjoy him for hundreds of years to come." Ozzy — who will bow out with one last performance at Black Sabbath's Back To The Beginning charity concert at Birmingham's Villa Park on July 5 — quipped: "Clone me, you bastards." The 76-year-old Paranoid hitmaker previously starred in an ad for Liquid Death's Death Dust electrolyte drink mix. He joked in the clip: "Whatever you do, don't try freebasing it and never ever inject it. And don't even think about boofing it, you little perverts." From overdoses to biting the head off a bat to jumping out of a hotel window, and his Parkinson's and spinal injuries, Ozzy has defied death countless times over the years. Ozzy's preparation for the show includes rigorous training. Speaking on his Ozzy Speaks podcast on SiriusXM recently, he said: "I have got this trainer guy who helps people get back to normal. It's hard going, but he's convinced that he can pull it off for me. "I am having my blood pressure taken 15 times a day. I've got this f***ing device on my finger. It's a monitor to say how my heart rate is." Ozzy also admitted he is still uncertain whether he will perform standing up or seated, following multiple spinal surgeries related to a 2003 quad bike accident at his Buckinghamshire home. A fall in 2019 displaced metal rods inserted into his back from the crash, which he said caused more complications than Parkinson's itself. Ozzy was diagnosed with a mild form of Parkinson's in 2003 and delayed going public with his news until 2020. Back To The Beginning will feature performances from Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Gojira, Alice in Chains, Anthrax, Mastodon and many more. [[nid:719177]]
