Celine Dion Mourns Ozzy Osbourne's Death: ‘He Was A True Original'
Celine Dion has remembered Ozzy Osbourne for his "boundless spirit and ear for melody". Celine Dion has hailed late label mate Ozzy Osbourne for his 'boundless spirit and ear for melody". Despite being on opposite ends of the music spectrum, the My Heart Will Go On hitmaker, 57, admired the late Crazy Train singer's talent and was 'deeply saddened" when she heard he had passed away on July 22, at the age of 76. Alongside a throwback picture of Ozzy, she penned on social media: 'I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Ozzy Osbourne. Ozzy and I were label mates for many years – and although we came from very different musical universes, I always admired his boundless spirit and ear for melody on songs like 'Mama, I'm Coming Home'. He was a true original! Fearless, and simply larger than life… but also kind, thoughtful and generous." Tributes have poured in for the Black Sabbath frontman, who played his final concert just days before his death on July 5. Metallica's Robert Trujillo shared a moving post about Ozzy hours before attending his funeral in Birmingham on Wednesday (30.07.25). The bassist in the Nothing Else Matters band had a stint in the Prince of Darkness' solo band before he joined Metallica in late 1990s and early 2000s. Members of the group – who took part in Ozzy's epic Back To The Beginning concert earlier this month – were back in the city to pay their respects. Ahead of the funeral, Robert took to Instagram to thank Ozzy for all he did for him in the early days of his career and beyond, including bringing his old band, Infectious Grooves, to a wider audience. He began: 'Sadly, we're heading back to London today for Ozzy's funeral. I just want to say… 'Ozzy was the conduit for so many new relationships both creative collaborations and real, lasting friendships. 'I mean, Joe Holmes is Lullah's godfather, and Mike Bordin is Tye's godfather both of those connections came directly from my friendship with Ozzy. Because of Oz, Infectious Grooves was able to tour back in '91 as a brand-new band and at the time, it wasn't even really a band, just some fun songs we had recorded. We weren't ready to hit the road, but he made us step up and make it happen. He loved the song 'Therapy," which he guest appeared on and that really kicked it all off for Infectious in the '90s. He actually demanded we open for him on the 'Theater of Madness" tour. He'd say 'I'm your best friend Rob, I f****** love the bass and the funkier and heavier the better!" 'He was the gateway. (sic)" Robert went on to admit Ozzy could be 'so honest it hurt", but he'll never forget his sense of humour and the 'wild adventure" of touring with Ozzy and his guitarist Zakk Wylde. He continued: 'Ozzy was a humble man and sometimes so honest it hurt but his sense of humor made everything absolutely amazing. Touring with Ozzy and Zakk was always a wild adventure. Those two together… it was a crazy, awesome rollercoaster. 'We're all so thankful for his heart and soul. 'Ozzy and Black Sabbath were and still are the soundtrack to our lives. The inspiration they gave us is beyond words. The first real alternative rock band, in my opinion. Confirming Metallica would attend the funeral, he said: 'Now it's time to pay our respects, share our love, and offer our support to Sharon and the family. It's heartbreaking but we know Ozzy gave us everything he had in his final days." On taking part in Back To The Beginning, he said: 'I'm so honored that Lars, James, Kirk, and I (Metallica) got to celebrate with him, to share our music and Sabbath's music on such a special day in Birmingham. Being part of that meant so much to us." He signed off the tribute: 'Ozzy, RIP brother.

Celine Dion reveals surprise connection to Ozzy Osbourne as she shares heartfelt tribute
Celine Dion has been left 'deeply saddened' by the death of Ozzy Osbourne and has reveaeld how they knew each other at a time when their careers were so different. Celine Dion has been left 'deeply saddened' by the death of Ozzy Osbourne. The Black Sabbath icon died last week at the age of 76 following a number of health issues and his funeral procession will take place in his hometown of Birmingham on Wednesday afternoon. And the My Heart Will Go On songstress, 57, took to social media to pay tribute as she recalled a time that even though their music was placed in very different genres, there was a time when they were signed to the same record label and she developed a deep 'admiration' for his work. She wrote on Instagram: "I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Ozzy Osbourne. Ozzy and I were label mates for many years – and although we came from very different musical universes, I always admired his boundless spirit and ear for melody on songs like 'Mama, I'm Coming Home'. He was a true original! Fearless, and simply larger than life… but also kind, thoughtful and generous." It comes as several other music stars including Sir Elton John, Lulu and members of Metallica offered their own condolences following Ozzy's passing. Ozzy was followed by his family - including wife Sharon - in the special procession that was accompanied by a live brass band, Bostin' Brass. The procession passed by Black Sabbath bridge and bench, where floral tributes were laid out in their hundreds for the music icon. Sharon and her three children with Ozzy - Aimee, Kelly and Jack - left the car to pay lay flowers at the bridge, showing their subtle nods to the star with their choices of outfits and accessories. In heartbreaking scenes, Sharon broke down in tears as she grieved the loss of her beloved Ozzy. Kelly and Jack stayed by her side as they comforted their mum. The procession took place from 1pm, with Broad Street closed to traffic from 7am. Ozzy's family are covering the costs, with the council helping with the road closure. He was "desperate to come home" in recent years following his Parkinson's diagnosis, and Ozzy made it back to England before his death. The poignant message above the statement announcing his death read "Birmingham, England July 22, 2025" - revealing that Ozzy made it back home for one last time. Following the funeral, several other A-Listers spoke out amid their grief for the late rock star. Long after the crowds had disappeared, David Beckham took to his Instagram Stories to upload kind words for the Prince of Darkness. Alongside an image of Ozzy at his final gig at Villa Park just weeks ago, Beckham wrote: "When Ozzy smiled we all smiled.. Such a kind, generous and caring man Ozzy was and will always be. " Prior to Ozzy's send off in Birmingham, Metallica star Rob Trujillo paid a moving tribute to the rocker. He explained how he was sad, but confirmed that he would be attending the funeral of Ozzy. He said on Instagram: "Ozzy was the conduit for so many new relationships both creative collaborations and real, lasting friendships." And after calling the Prince of Darkness the "gateway", he said: "Ozzy was a humble man and sometimes so honest it hurt but his sense of humor made everything absolutely amazing. Touring with Ozzy and Zakk was always a wild adventure. Those two together… it was a crazy, awesome rollercoaster. "We're all so thankful for his heart and soul.

"Now it's time to pay our respects, share our love, and offer our support to Sharon and the family. It's heartbreaking but we know Ozzy gave us everything he had in his final days." News of Ozzy's death broke on just over a week ago, and it came after a number of health woes for the legendary music star.

Celine Dion fans cringe as resurfaced Ellen interview proves how badly show aged
Celine Dion fans have been left cringing thanks to a resurfaced clip of her on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which has been branded 'humiliating'. The Canadian power ballad queen appeared on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show several times over its 20-year run. However, her 2007 interview in particular has had an online resurgence thanks to Reddit, where users are slamming the host for bringing up a 'weird' topic and proceeding to ask 'dumb questions'. The subject at hand was Celine's son's hair, which was long at the time. Ellen, now 67, pulled out a smiley photoshoot snap of Celine, 57, her son René-Charles as a boy, and Celine's late husband René Angélil. She launched straight into a semi-comedic, semi-accusatory conversation, stating to Celine directly: 'It seems like you're busy with something because you're forgetting to cut your son's hair.' Holding up the magazine shoot as the audience chuckled, Ellen continued: 'Look at him, he is beautiful, but look at his hair. When are you gonna cut that hair?' Straight on the defence, Celine's protective motherly instincts kicked in as she replied: 'Do you have a problem with that?' Despite the camera still being focused on the magazine, an awkward shift in atmosphere could immediately be sensed, with Ellen retaliating: 'No, I don't have a problem. That is some long hair.' Providing further explanation on her son's locks, which were flowing past his shoulders at the time, Celine shared: 'It's amazing, right? Some people shave the head of their children, and people say, 'Oh, isn't that terrible? Well, I don't even cut my son's hair, and they say, 'Oh my God, when is she gonna cut her son's hair?' 'Whatever I will do, I won't please everyone.' The My Heart Will Go On hitmaker continued: 'But something I can reassure every mother here, the long hair, do you know that René-Charles makes his own decisions most of the time? 'My son makes the decision about his hair.' Asked further by Ellen if René-Charles 'wants' his hair cut, Celine said: 'I have asked him about 25 times, if not five million, 'Do you want mummy to open your face a little bit? Do you want me to open your eyes? You have beautiful eyes. Do you want me to trim a little bit?' And no. 'When he's ready, I'll cut it, and when I cut it, they'll say, 'Oh, it's a little too short'.' In a rather abrupt switch-up, Ellen then changed the topic of conversation entirely without acknowledging what Celine had said, beginning: 'So, let's talk about the CD, are you excited about getting back in the game and having a new CD coming out?' Discussing the nostalgic clip online this week, viewers admitted that it left them feeling uncomfortable, slating Ellen for being 'rude'. Others also pointed out the irony of the whole thing, with tar-luthien on Reddit writing: 'It's just so funny to me that a woman famed for having short hair was complaining about a boy having long hair'. 'It's odd. It feels like she's alluding to something something gender roles 'boys shouldn't have long hair',' added ArnoldPalmerAlertBU. 'a lesbian who never dressed femininely asking a question like that… the irony', stated aliensuperstars_. Adicol branded Ellen's question 'brutal' while mangosandkiwis joked: 'I would have said, 'when are you gonna grow your hair?'' Vivahermione accused Ellen of lacking 'awareness' and called Ellen's failure to apologise out after Celine shut her down. There was also plenty of praise for 'queen' Celine with her handling of the matter, with dreamslikedeserts commenting: 'So wild to think of them being like 'so what do we want to ask one of the greatest singers of all time? Have we considered undermining her parenting and belittling her child?'' 'She answered just like the damn national treasure she is', declared Most_Description296. René-Charles is now 24 years old—and yes, he has short hair, but he kept the longish tresses into his early twenties, which he would style in a slicked-back look. Named after his father, who died in 2016, he was born via IVF, with Celine, who also has younger twins Nelson and Eddy Angélil, previously hailing him as a 'miracle child'. He has since followed in his mother's footsteps to become a musician, releasing his own R&B and soul tunes to great success. René-Charles has often been seen out in public with Celine, particularly following her 2022 stiff-person syndrome diagnosis. For instance, in 2024, he joined her at the Grammys to present an award to Taylor Swift. As for Ellen, her show got the chop in May 2022 following a run of over 3,000 episodes. Its cancellation was confirmed in 2021 after a string of allegations of workplace bullying came to light. An internal investigation was conducted while public support for Ellen dipped. More Trending Speaking out in her first interview after the announcement, Ellen called the accusations 'orchestrated' and 'misogynistic'. In its latter years, the programme had already started struggling to maintain its viewership, with Ellen also saying she wanted to end the show to pursue other creative endeavours. The Ellen DeGeneres Show received 33 Daytime Emmys in its time before the final episode aired on May 26, 2022, with Jennifer Aniston, Pink, and Billie Eilish as guests and Ellen's family members, plus wife Portia de Rossi, in the audience. View More » Reflecting on the end of the show last July, Ellen said that she 'got kicked out of showbusiness for being mean,' vowing to bow out from the industry permanently after fulfilling her existing obligations.
