Ozzy Osbourne has responded to an internet hoax about his death by coming out with a simple statement declaring, “I’m Not Dead.”
“I’m not dead. I’m not going anywhere. And I’m gonna go up and do some more gigs before I’m finished anyway,” the rock icon declared on the latest episode of his family’s “The Osbournes” podcast series.
During the podcast, which premiered on YouTube and various streaming outlets Tuesday, Osbourne addressed the online death hoax suggesting he is no more.
“The thing on YouTube, it’s got ‘Celebrities Who Have Died Today,’ and there’s a picture of me,” he said, referring to a video that was circulating online.
Osbourne, who has been struggling with multiple health issues in recent years, announced in February that he is retiring from touring.
Parkinson’s disease, a bout with Covid-19, and a fall four years ago compounded his physical weakness.
