Rock legend Ozzy Osbourne spent final days with family in England home: report
Ozzy Osbourne's final days in England are being shared. The Prince of Darkness died Tuesday, July 22, after battling a number of health issues over the years. He was 76. The Black Sabbath singer was at "peace" before his death, and was "surrounded by family" before he passed, according to People magazine. "[Sharon's] deepest hope was fulfilled, and this is her focus now," a source told the outlet. "Ozzy's final days were spent in England, surrounded by family, music and in the place he called home. He was in peace," the source added. Two weeks before his death, Ozzy reunited with Black Sabbath to perform at a star-studded farewell show in England, an appropriately dark and electric send-off for one of rock's greatest legends. During his final show on July 5 at Villa Park, Osbourne expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support as the band, including Tony Iommi, Terence "Geezer" Butler and Bill Ward, performed together for the first time in 20 years. For the closing set, the legendary rock star was lifted to the stage while sitting on a black throne accompanied by skulls and topped with a black bat. He sang hits like "Crazy Train" and "Mama I'm Coming Home" while remaining seated during the entire set. "You have no idea how I feel," Osbourne told the crowd. "Thank you from the bottom of my heart." An insider told the outlet, "That show meant everything. It brought his career full circle." Ozzy's sisters, Jean Powell and Gillian Hemming, recalled the last time they saw their brother was before his final concert. "He was frail, but it still came as a shock," Powell told The Mirror about her brother's death. She wasn't aware of the "details of his death," but was very "thankful he died in England." She noted that her last conversation with her brother was ahead of his Black Sabbath farewell performance. "I got a text from him as he drove down Lodge Road, where we used to live near the stadium," Powell said. "He said he couldn't believe all the crowds were walking down our old street to watch him perform." Powell added, "It was upsetting because he could not stand up straight, but he was still our John, still cracking the jokes." The 10-hour show was hosted by Jason Momoa and featured performances from Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Jack Black, Steven Tyler and others. At one point during the show, which was livestreamed in the U.K., legendary drummers, including Tool's Danny Carey, Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith and Blink-182's Travis Barker, battled with their drumsticks while playing a cover of Sabbath's "Symptom of the Universe." After his death, the Osbournes released a statement to Fox News Digital. "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's privacy at this time." Osbourne is survived by wife Sharon, daughters Kelly and Aimee and son Jack, in addition to daughter Jessica and sons Elliot and Louis from his first marriage to Thelma Riley.

JoJo Siwa Nicknamed Boyfriend Chris Hughes' Private Parts: ‘She Must Love the Rhyming Lingo'
Chris Hughes has revealed that his girlfriend, JoJo Siwa, gave his genitals pet names. In an interview with E! published on Monday, July 21, the Love Island alum, 32, shared that the former Dance Moms star, 22, 'calls my balls Jimmy and Timmy.' 'She must love the rhyming lingo within her life,' he laughed, referring to how the 'Karma' singer previously shared that she wanted to have triplets and name them Freddy, Eddy, and Teddy. 'I don't know about those names,' Hughes admitted. 'I have names that I like. I'm still kind of undecided on them.' However, Siwa told Capital Buzz in June that she no longer wants to call her future children Freddy, Eddy, and Teddy. 'Absolutely not. I was a bad girl, did some bad things, and that was naming children,' Siwa joked. 'Got a new name for children. And I think it's Silver. Silver Siwa.' Hughes did not mention his thoughts on the name Silver in his interview with E!, but made it clear the pair would get on the same page when they need to. 'We'll work it out for sure,' he told the outlet. 'It might end up being something we have to pick names out of a hat for.' The reality stars met while filming Celebrity Big Brother UK in April and quickly formed a strong bond. At the time of filming, Siwa was dating Kath Ebbs. Siwa — who came out as queer while on the show — and Ebbs, 27, called it quits at the show's wrap party. In June, Siwa confirmed that she and Hughes were in a relationship, telling The Guardian, 'It's not platonic anymore, and it's been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I'm absolutely head over heels for him and he's the same way.' Hughes told E! that the pair developed a strong friendship before their relationship progressed romantically. 'But even when I was on the show, she was my friend,' he explained. 'We had such an amazing friendship, and we were so close, and it was such a unique, special bond and one which I will forever be grateful for.' 'She's literally like the love of my life, but she's also my best friend,' the English television personality added. 'We sit and do nothing together.' As for how the couple manages doing a long distance romance, Hughes told the outlet, 'it just works.' 'I think when things are meant to happen, I think everything becomes effortless,' he shared. 'I don't think we've spent more than two weeks apart since we came out the Big Brother house.' Hughes also explained that the pair is living in the present when it comes to their relationship. 'We haven't even had those conversations about what do we do going forward, because the life that we're living right now, there's so much peace,' he added. Solve the daily Crossword

Bryson DeChambeau's ‘uncomfortable exchange' with British Open ball spotter divides fans
Bryson DeChambeau is catching heat from some on social media after his exchange with a ball spotter at last week's British Open went viral. In a video shared Tuesday by Golf on CBS — that was titled 'An uncomfortable exchange between Bryson DeChambeau and a ball spotter at The Open' — the LIV Golf star asked the spotter where his ball landed in the rough at Royal Portrush, with the staffer pointing to the area. Before DeChambeau, 31, lined up to take the shot, the two-time major champion appeared to say 'thank you' and told the spotter, 'You can move out of the way.' Some golf fans took exception to the conversation and chided DeChambeau's actions in the post's comments. 'Come on Bryson, this is pathetic behavior, no matter how rich and good at golf you are,' one fan wrote. 'That was rude yo. Did you just exposed true self as a fake???' another posted. DeChambeau rallied to a 10th-place finish at the final major of the year after carding an ugly 7-over 78 in the opening round. As the DeChambeau pile-on continued in the comments, with some likening the behavior to 'childish' and a 'lack of class,' others spoke out in defense of the former U.S. Open champion following a seemingly innocuous exchange. 'That wasn't so bad. People just being their typical judgmental selves when they're not in the situation,' a fan posted. 'People overreacting on what he said. Nothing to see here,' another expressed. DeChambeau has evolved from one of golf's most polarizing figures to a fan favorite in recent years, curating a monster YouTube following with his 'Can I Break 50' series featuring the likes of Tom Brady, Phil Mickelson and President Trump, among others. He opened the major season on a high note in April when he sealed his best Masters finish with a tie for fifth. He followed up that performance a month later with a tie for second at the PGA Championship. Although DeChambeau failed to defend his 2024 U.S. Open title after missing the cut in June, he played his way through the weekend in Northern Ireland after a bumpy British Open start. 'I was able to hold myself together under the pressure and fight for every shot,' DeChambeau said after shooting a 7-under 64 in Sunday's final round for a 9-under par total. 'I'm super proud of the round I played today. Just wish I could have that 78 back.' Scottie Scheffler went on to capture his second major of the year with an overall score of 17-under. He won the PGA Championship in May.
