\n

\n\tRoger Waters<\/a> reaffirmed the comments he made about Ozzy Osbourne<\/a> following the singer\u2019s death, insensitive remarks that drew criticism<\/a> from Osbourne\u2019s own family.<\/p>\n

\n\tFollowing Osbourne\u2019s death last summer, Waters said in an interview with the Independent Ink podcast, \u201cOzzy Osbourne, who just died, bless him in his whatever state that he was in his whole life. We\u2019ll never know. The music, I have no idea. I couldn\u2019t give a fuck.\u201d Waters then added, \u201cI don\u2019t care about Black Sabbath, I never did. Have no interest in biting the heads of chickens or whatever they do. I couldn\u2019t care less, you know.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThose remarks drew the ire of the Osbourne family, with Jack Osbourne writing on social media, \u201cHey Roger Waters, fuck you. How pathetic and out of touch you\u2019ve become. The only way you seem to get attention these days is by vomiting out bullshit in the press. My father always thought you were a cunt. Thanks for proving him right.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t(The Osbourne family also briefly released a shirt mocking Waters<\/a>; \u201cAnother Prick in the Wall,\u201d the shirt read next to an image of Osbourne urinating on Waters\u2019 The Wall: Live in Berlin<\/em> album.)<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a new interview with Piers Morgan, Waters was asked about his Osbourne remarks, and whether he regretted the unempathetic timing in which he said them.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

\n\t\u201cThose comments, I\u2019m not denying that I said them, came in the middle of a long interview,\u201d Waters admitted before doubling-down, \u201cDo I have to like every rock group that ever was or people who bite the heads off bats?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAsked whether he would apologize to Sharon Osbourne during the Morgan interview, Waters said frankly he would not. \u201cI obviously had no idea that Sharon Osbourne would be watching a podcast,\u201d Waters said. \u201cNot that I have any time for Sharon Osbourne, she\u2019s a raging Zionist\u2026 and she\u2019s accused me of all kinds of things\u2026 because she\u2019s part of the Israeli lobby.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAs for the rest of Osbourne\u2019s family, Waters said, \u201cListen Jack\u2026 if he wants to have a chat, I\u2019ll have a chat with him. And I won\u2019t be nasty to him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
