Jack Osbourne shares tribute as father Ozzy Osbourne bids farewell with final concert in Birmingham
Ozzy Osbourne's final live concert became a moment of family reflection as Jack Osbourne paid tribute to his father following the performance. The 76-year-old musician delivered his last show at the Back to the Beginning festival in Birmingham on 5 July, performing to 42,000 fans while seated in a throne due to his Parkinson's diagnosis. 'It's so good to be on this f****** stage, you have no idea,' Ozzy told the crowd as he performed a five-song solo set, followed by a reunion with Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward for four songs, including 'Iron Man' and 'Paranoid.' Shortly after the concert, Jack Osbourne shared a personal tribute on Instagram by posting vintage footage of his father bringing him on stage as a child. 'For everything I learned along the way…the final Good Night We Love You All,' Jack captioned the post, marking the significance of the moment for their family. Jack's tribute was part of a wider family reflection, with Sharon Osbourne and Kelly Osbourne also sharing photos and videos from the event. The concert, held in Ozzy's hometown, was announced earlier this year as a final opportunity for the musician to perform live and give back to Birmingham, with proceeds supporting Birmingham Children's Hospital and Acorn Children's Hospice. Ozzy, who started with Black Sabbath in the late 1960s before a solo career that has sold over 100 million albums, retired from touring in 2023 due to health concerns.

Zayn Malik opens up about facing racism during One Direction days in new song ‘Fuchsia Sea'
Zayn Malik's latest music teaser has sparked intense speculation among fans, who believe the singer is directly addressing his experience with One Direction in his upcoming track 'Fuchsia Sea.' Shared via Instagram Stories, Malik's handwritten lyrics struck a chord with followers and revived conversations around his complex history with the chart-topping boy band. Photo: Instagram One line in particular—'Cause I worked hard in a white band and they still laughed at the Asian'—has ignited debate, with many interpreting it as a critique of how Malik was treated during his time with the group. Reactions on social media ranged from fierce support to calls for a public apology on his behalf. Malik, who was the first to leave the group before their official 2016 disbandment, has largely stayed out of the public eye in recent years. That changed with his 2024 'Stairway to the Sky' tour, where he reconnected with fans through stripped-back performances in cities including London, Las Vegas, and Washington, DC. The singer's relationship with his former bandmates, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and the late Liam Payne, has remained distant. They were last seen together in November 2024 to mourn Payne's passing at 31. In recent months, however, Malik appears to have buried the hatchet as he performed a cover of the band's hit "Night Changes" in his concert in Mexico and also acknowledged Tomlinson's attendance at one of his shows.
