Kelly Osbourne Blasts Dee Snider’s “Attempt to Belittle” Ozzy Osbourne
The daughter of the late metal icon didn't take kindly to the Twisted Sister singer's comments. Kelly Osbourne Blasts Dee Snider’s “Attempt to Belittle” Ozzy Osbourne Spencer Kaufman
Kelly Osbourne has strongly criticized Dee Snider for attempting to undermine her father, Ozzy Osbourne, by dismissing his songwriting contributions to both Black Sabbath and his solo work. Snider's followers on X/Twitter pointed out Lemmy Kilmister's involvement in writing Ozzy's solo material, which prompted Snider's response.
He stated that Sharon Osbourne doesn't favor sharing the credit, and later, he claimed that bassist Bob Daisley wrote the majority of Ozzy's early solo songs. Osbourne responded on Instagram, emphasizing her father's enduring legacy as a musician, songwriter, singer, and bandleader. She highlighted that his friends, colleagues, fans, and even millions of people who continue to purchase his records are well aware of his contributions and what he left behind.
Osbourne's post also included a reference to Twisted Sister's "We’re Not Gonna Take It," released over 40 years ago. She went on to assert that Snider's attempt to belittle Ozzy's achievements was both classless and irrelevant, given the stark contrast between their careers. Snider later clarified that he holds nothing but love for Ozzy, who had always been kind to him.
He also acknowledged that Black Sabbath changed his life as a songwriter but expressed sensitivity regarding credit and royalties.
