Legendary Action Star Shares Touching Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne After Death
Legendary Action Star Shares Touching Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne After Death originally appeared on Parade. Machete actor Danny Trejo, 81, posted a touching memorial to his friend Ozzy Osbourne on July 22, 2025, following the rocker's death at age 76. "Today we lost one of the wildest souls to ever walk this Earth," wrote Trejo beside a photo of the two goofing off together while Osbourne pretended to choke him. "Ozzy wasn't just The Prince of Darkness, he was pure light to those of us lucky enough to meet him. A heart bigger than any stage he ever rocked." The actor added that his heart was with Osbourne's wife, Sharon Osbourne, and kids Jessica, Louis, Elliot, Aimee, Kelly, and Jack. "Love you forever," he concluded with a white dove and guitar emoji. "Save me a seat backstage up there, carnál." The iconic photo was taken backstage at Ozzfest in December 2018, and it wasn't the only time the dynamic duo was spotted spending time together. In September 2013, they were both honored at the Universal Studios Eyegore Awards, which kicked off Halloween Horror Nights, according to The Hollywood Reporter. In December 2024, Trejo wished his pal a happy birthday with a hilarious meme of the same photo, writing, "That time the Prince of Darkness upped his game from a bat to a Machete. Happy belated birthday, Ozzy Osbourne!" The Black Sabbath frontman's death was announced on Tuesday, July 22, by his family on X. "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," said the statement. "He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time."

Ozzy Osbourne Fans Are Petitioning Chipotle to Pay Tribute to the Rocker
Ozzy Osbourne Fans Are Petitioning Chipotle to Pay Tribute to the Rocker originally appeared on Parade. The late Ozzy Osbourne was famously known as the Prince of Darkness, but his most devoted fans know he was also the King of Burritos! Now, there's a petition for Chipotle to add a new menu item in the Black Sabbath rocker's honor following his July 22, 2025, death. Music outlet Loudwire has launched a petition requesting that the infamous Mexican fast-casual chain memorialize the rock legend in their restaurants. "Loudwire believes Chipotle should create a signature burrito called 'The Ozzy' to celebrate his immense love for the food chain," they wrote in the petition. "We don't know what Ozzy's typical order was, but if anyone in his camp knows and is willing to share, please get in touch!" Osbourne's love of burritos was well documented on his MTV reality showThe Osbournes, which ran for four seasons from 2002 until 2005. In a 2003 episode called "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Ozzy's "burrito diet" was the major drama of the week. Related: He dubbed himself "Burrito Man" after developing a habit of eating the Mexican meal "twice a day." "Your father can't eat one burrito, he has to have 900 burritos," his wife, Sharon Osbourne, joked. Even in the middle of an intense conversation admonishing daughter Kelly Osbourne for underage drinking, he abruptly stopped to say, "I'm going to go eat a burrito." In the episode, Ozzy described Chipotle as his "favorite, favorite, favorite burrito joint," while lovingly watching his meal being made behind the counter. His passion even prompted the chain to give out their very first "Celebrity Card" to Ozzy, which allowed him one free meal a day. With more than 1,000 signatures within the first few hours of the petition going live, fans love the idea of honoring Ozzy with his very own menu item. They even began offering up other name suggestions in the comments of the petition, including the "Ozzrito," "The Burrito of Ozz," and the "Burrito of Darkness." Chipotle has yet to respond to the petition.
