The Prince of Darkness, as he was affectionately known by legion of fans, died in Birmingham weeks after the legendary rocker's reunion with Black Sabbath for a final concert in England. The July 5 concert was a reprieve from the British singer's Parkinson's disease battle, which had rendered him unable to stand or walk without assistance.
The Osbourne family – known by younger generations for their MTV reality show "The Osbournes," which aired from 2002 to 2005 – announced his death in a statement shared with USA TODAY July 22.
"It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy has passed away this morning," the statement read. "He was with his family and surrounded by love."
"We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time," read the note, signed by wife Sharon and children Jack, Kelly, Aimee as well as Louis, his son with Thelma Riley. He also had two other children, Jessica and Elliot.

All About Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's Daughter, Aimee Osbourne (Including Why She Opted Out of Their Family Reality Show)
Aimee Osbourne famously left home at 16 when her family decided to start filming 'The Osbournes'NEED TO KNOW Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne's older daughter Aimee Osbourne was born in 1983 She chose not to appear on their MTV show The Osbournes Aimee has been making music under the name ARO since 2015Unlike her larger-than-life parents, Aimee Osbourne has always preferred to stay out of the spotlight. Sharon Osbourne and Ozzy Osbourne welcomed their older daughter, Aimee, in 1983. But fans didn't see her on their hit MTV reality series, The Osbournes, as she moved out of the home when she was 16 years old. 'She couldn't live in our house because we were filming and it drove her insane,' Sharon revealed during a June 2018 episode of The Talk. 'She felt too that she didn't want to grow up on camera. She hated the idea. It was appalling to her.' Aimee, whose younger siblings are Jack Osbourne and Kelly Osbourne, echoed those sentiments in a September 2015 interview with The Independent, saying, 'Back then, I still felt I was trying to figure out who I was in the chaos of family life, so why on earth would I want that portrayed on television?" Although she opted out of reality TV stardom, Aimee shares her late father's love of music. She's been releasing songs under the name ARO since 2015. In July 2025, Aimee made a rare public appearance at Ozzy's funeral. Here's everything to know about Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne's eldest daughter, Aimee Osbourne, and her relationship with the reality TV stars. She was born in London Aimee Rachel Osbourne was born in London on Sept. 2, 1983. Like the rest of her family, she grew up both in the English countryside and in California. She told The Independent that their home life was always a little wild, and described herself as 'the one that had to be in control a lot of the time.' "We travelled a lot, went on tour with my dad a lot,' Aimee said. 'But there was never a moment when any of us didn't feel loved, or taken care of." She left home when she was 16 When Ozzy, Sharon, Kelly and Jack began filming The Osbournes, Aimee, then 16, declined to appear on the show and moved out of the home. 'I had grown up around having a pretty well-known dad anyway, and ... I always really valued my privacy within that family," she said during an August 2020 interview on Q1043 New York. Aimee added that she wanted to give herself 'a chance to actually develop into a human being as opposed to just being remembered for being a teenager' on TV. She continued, 'It didn't really line up with what I saw my future as." During a 2018 episode of The Talk, Sharon revealed how difficult that time was, saying that she regretted 'every day' that her daughter left home. She's the lead singer of ARO Like her father, Aimee is also a musician. She has been releasing music under the name ARO (her initials) since 2015. However, Aimee previously didn't tell anyone that she liked music, as she didn't want to be compared to Ozzy. 'I kept it to myself 'cause you never want it known that you want to do what your parents do,' she said in a January 2021 interview with Her first single, 'Raining Gold,' was inspired by growing up in the spotlight. "I wanted the song to touch on how overwhelming and isolating it feels to be constantly misunderstood and the importance of choosing to break free from that and just believing in yourself," the singer said in a March 2015 interview with Rolling Stone. "It's so valuable to always try and put yourself in someone else's shoes. I hope this song reminds people of that." Aimee released her debut album, Vacare Adamaré, in 2020. In addition to her music, she also played Raquelle in MTV's 2003 musical adaptation of Wuthering Heights. She told reporters at the time that she didn't have 'huge intentions' to be an actress and was 'casually asked" to be in the production. "It was a great experience and I'm glad I did it," she added. She's "really different" from her siblings When it comes to her relationship with her siblings, Aimee told The Independent in 2015 that there isn't 'an ease' between them, rather, 'there is an acceptance.' Kelly has also spoken out about her relationship with her older sister, describing them as 'really different' from one another. 'We don't talk,' she said during a May 2021 interview on Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast. 'She doesn't understand me and I don't understand her." She made a rare public appearance for Ozzy's funeral in 2025 Following Ozzy's death on July 22, Aimee made a rare appearance to attend her father's funeral procession in his hometown of Birmingham, England. She walked alongside her mom and siblings as fans crowded the streets to say goodbye to the Prince of Darkness. Rolling Stone Australia reported in July 2025 that Aimee would appear in a documentary about her father titled No Escape From Now. The film reportedly follows the heavy metal legend's health issues and journey to 'take the stage for one final performance.' "Filming with him, Sharon, Aimee, Kelly and Jack for the last three and a half years will always be a cherished and remarkable experience,' the documentary's creative team said in a statement. 'Largely because we got to regularly witness Ozzy's indomitable spirit, his mischievous, irresistible grin and his masterful display of unique one-liners.' No Escape From Now is set to release in late 2025. Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

As artists continue to adapt to an ever-evolving industry while navigating the rise of AI, unfavorable streaming contracts and other challenges, tried-and-true revenue streams are making a comeback – namely, tours and merch. In an increasingly digital era, artists and fans alike want a better connection to each other and tangible experiences and merchandise carry more weight than ever. FromBritney x BalenciagaandIce Spice x Mercedes-Benz, to label-made official merch from the likes of UMG'sBravado, it's a good time to be a fan.

We've rounded up some of favorite pieces of band merch – check them out below in alphabetical order now.

But while the rapper might have been born in London, he was most definitely ATL-raised – and just in case you needed a reminder, the merch for hisAmerican Dream Tourincludes a t-shirt emblazoned with the Stars and Stripes behind a portrait of the artist staring you Aminé's13 Months of Sunshineliterally sounded like summertime – and it's that same sentiment that guides the album's solo graphic offering. 'Spring, Aminé, Fall, Winter' lands in black, all-caps lettering on a white tee and white tank-top, with a special edition landing for the rapper's one-night-only Brooklyn performance earlier this summer; that one includes an additional graphic on the backside to commemorate the Bad Bunnyis on a roll. His 30-night Puerto Rico residency is projected togenerate over $200 million USDin economic impact – and the accompanying merch is pretty cool The best part aboutBillie Eilish'smerch is that each piece looks like something the singer would actually wear. Eilish loves an oversized jersey, so the leadHit Me Hard And Softdelivery – a silver-hued football jersey – is perfect. Design wise, Eilish's face fronts the jersey, with additional patch-like graphics on the arms and her signatureblohshicon on the back. Another notable piece from the album's merch drop is the layered tour tee, complete with a camouflage long-sleeve underneath a black graphic tee with the tour's dates listed on the backside.

Blink 182have been rocking since 1992, but found mainstream success in the early 2000s with their catchy pop-punk sound, irreverent humor, and era-defining anthems like 'All the Small Things' and 'What's My Age Again?'. Even if you aren't the biggest Blink fan, there's a good chance you know a word or two from one of their songs – like the eternally relatable line 'work sucks, I know' from their1999 hit single ATSM(sorry, boss… if you're reading this).

Salmon was the color of choice forBon Iver'sSABLE, fABLE, engulfing the album cover and appearing in all of the project's promotional material, static visuals, and external collaborations. Since an all-salmon shirt might be a bit much for some, Justin Vernon made the color a bit more subtle in the album's lead merch, focusing instead on the best part of the album: his lyricism. There is a salmon-colored outline of Vernon in the middle of the long-sleeve T-shirt, but the highlight of the design is the lyrics 'There's a Rythmn' scribbled on the arms and down the Oops… he did it again.

Thethree-way collabbetween hip-hop OGs Parappa the Rapper and De La Soul, together with Japanese brand WIND AND SEA, has resulted in some of the most wearable band merch we've seen. The collection is quite large – with everything from jackets to pants – but a stand-out for is this long-sleece Death Row Recordsneeds no introduction.

From an iced-out CLA to a selection of tees and jerseys, these three pieces stood out for Jamiroquai'scelebrating the 20th anniversary of his iconic albumDynamitethis year. The car-obsessed Londoner is keeping it simple with the merch, though: together the Jamiroquai logo, his unmistakable 'Buffalo Man' character graces an all-black t-shirt and a zip-up The Buick GNX has been a key motif throughoutKendrick Lamar'sGNXalbum as well as its accompanying Grand National Tour with SZA. This theme is instilled more literally in the tour's graphic tees, one of which takes a retro feel with a graffiti-esque GNX graphic and 'Gloria' on top. Elsewhere, a mechanic's work shirt is emulated with 'Gloria Auto Repair and Auto Body Inc.' on one side of the chest and a vintage patch on the other. Additional retro lettering lands on the back of the pastel blue silhouette, Kevin Abstract'ssharp creative direction extends all the way to his graphic tees – and while we don't yet have merch forBlush, we do have quite the selection fromBlanketas well as a standout cobalt blueARIZONA BABYtee.
