Kelly Osbourne pays tribute to father Ozzy, 'the best friend I ever had'
Ozzy's ex-daughter-in-law also posted a heartfelt tribute to the late rocker, who was a beloved grandfather. Kelly Osbourne paid tribute to her father, Ozzy, on Thursday, sharing poignant lyrics from a song the two recorded together before he died at the age of 76 following a battle with Parkinson's disease. 'I feel unhappy I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had 💔,' Kelly wrote in a post to Instagram. These are lyrics from the Black Sabbath song 'Changes,' released in 1972 but recorded by Kelly and Ozzy as a duet in 2003, with revised lyrics that showed their strong father-daughter bond. Earlier this month, Osbourne performed what was dubbed his 'final bow' from a throne at Villa Park in the U.K. After the show, Kelly became engaged to her longtime partner, musician Sid Wilson of the band Slipknot, after he got down on one knee backstage. Kelly shared a video of the engagement on Instagram, during which you can hear Ozzy say to Wilson: 'F*** off, you're not marrying my daughter!' which was met with laughs. Wilson and Kelly welcomed a son named Sidney in 2022. More of Osbourne's loved ones have started to post personal tributes to the heavy metal icon, who lived with Parkinson's disease until he died on July 22. Lisa Stelly, who was married to Osbourne's son Jack from 2012 to 2019, posted an emotional tribute to her ex-father-in-law on Instagram, honoring him as a loving grandfather. Jack and Stelly had three daughters while they were married: Pearl, Andy and Minnie. 'The world got Ozzy. We got Papa,' Stelly wrote in the caption. 'One of one. Larger than life. It hurts to say goodbye, but what a gift it was to have him. We will never stop missing you.' The post gives a softer look at the 'Prince of Darkness,' who is smiling as he holds one of his young grandchildren. The post also includes a video of him playfully dodging kisses from one of his grandchildren as she giggles. Other images show the Black Sabbath frontman puckering up for a kiss, cuddling two kiddos at once on a couch and sitting at an outdoor table with Stelly. After Osbourne died, the Osbourne family released the following joint statement signed by wife Sharon and their children Kelly, Jack, Aimee, as well as his son Louis from his prior marriage to Thelma Riley: '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. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.'

Ozzy Osbourne's Love for Burritos is Cemented in Chipotle History
Ozzy Osbourne called Chipotle his "favorite, favorite burrito joint" and was the first Celebrity Card recipient Legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne considered Chipotle to be a legendary restaurant. The Black Sabbath member, who died at 76 on Tuesday, July 22, expressed his love for the fast food spot in his family's reality show, The Osbournes. And Chipotle had a loving (and historic) response to the late star's admiration. In season 2 episode 6 of the MTV series, the musical icon was entranced while watching a Chipotle employee wrap his burrito. 'This is my favorite, my favorite, favorite, favorite, burrito joint this is,' he said, awestruck and with his hands to his face in disbelief. Ozzy even ordered an extra burrito, explaining one was for now and the other was for later. In the same 2003 episode, when asked how often he ate burritos daily, Ozzy said, 'Twice a day, I am Burrito Man.' Sharon said of her husband, 'Your father can't eat one burrito, he has to have 900 burritos.' Ozzy's love for the fast-casual Mexican restaurant prompted Chipotle to invent a special gift for him: the first Celebrity Card. The Celebrity Card has been gifted to athletes, musicians and other stars for more than 20 years, according to Chipotle's website. But Chipotle expanded its Celebrity Card opportunities to regular customers, allowing fans to apply to become a Celebrity Card holder last year. The card entitles the holder to one free meal every day and a complimentary catering order for up to 50 people with an approximate value of $20,000 A source at Chipotle confirmed to PEOPLE that Ozzy had a card, saying, 'In 2003, a musician turned television star raved about Chipotle on his family's reality television show, prompting Chipotle to issue its first-ever Celebrity Card.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from juicy celebrity news to compelling human interest stories In a statement on Tuesday, July 22, Osbourne's family told PEOPLE: '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. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time." In January 2020, Osbourne revealed that he'd been diagnosed in 2003 with Parkinson's disease, a nervous system disorder that affects movement. At the time, he said, "It's not a death sentence." Weeks before his death, Osbourne performed from a throne at the Black Sabbath farewell concert on July 5 in Birmingham. It would be his final concert and his first in 20 years with the band that made him a star. Read the original article on People
