Ozzy Osbourne confessed he used to pee himself on stage with Black Sabbath because he was “wet anyway”. During an episode of The Osbourne Podcast with his wife Sharon and kids Kelly and Jack, the rock star got candid about his on-stage antics.
The 74-year-old revealed: “When I was on-stage, I used to go, ‘Oh f*** it’, and just p***. ‘Cause I was wet anyway from throwing water around.” Black Sabbath’s gigs would be dotted with instances of Ozzy hosing both himself and the crowd down – and in 2018 sported an actual hose to drench everyone within radius.
His wife Sharon responded to his admission: “Oh lord, thanks for sharing!” as Jack retorted: “I remember the p*** bucket.” His sister Kelly corrected him: “Well that was more of a dumpy bucket.”

The subject of where to wee while performing was brought up as Sharon began discussing a pair of Queen Victoria’s underwear that was put up for auction. Sharon argued: “Shoes, a handbag, a dress is different than somebody’s bloody knickers that they farted in and s**t in!”
Jack was on hand to argue: “Who’s sh***ing in their underwear?” Ozzy then said: “She was an old girl. She was probably incontinent. She owned continents, but she was incontinent.”
Wetting himself on stage far from the wildest admission Ozzy has ever made. Once, he bit off the head of a bat during a performance in 1982. A fan tossed it on stage and the musician assumed it was made of rubber, immediately biting into it.
In his memoir I Am Ozzy, he confessed: “Immediately, though, something felt wrong. Very wrong. For a start, my mouth was instantly full of this warm, gloopy liquid, with the worst aftertaste you could ever imagine. I could feel it staining my teeth and running down my chin. Then the head in my mouth twitched.”
He also snorted ants with Mötley Crüe in the same decade, with Jack wondering: “Did you feel them crawling around in your sinuses? Did you get an ant drip?” Ozzy said he was drunk at the time, but confirmed he had snorted the insects.
Rocker Ozzy swore he’d never take acid again in the 70s after standing for an hour talking to a horse – arguing the nag told him to eff off. The Paranoid hitmaker said: “At that time in America, people were very fond of lacing your drinks with acid. I didn’t care. I used to swallow handfuls of tabs at a time. The end of it came when we got back to England.
“I took 10 tabs of acid then went for a walk in a field. I ended up standing there talking to this horse for about an hour. In the end the horse turned round and told me to f*** off. That was it for me.”

His Black Sabbath bandmate Geezer Butler told Classic Rock they first got into the drug in Los Angeles making their fourth album, explaining: “We got to California, and we were at this chick’s place, this massive beach house. And she gives us this stuff, psilocybin.
“I’d never heard of it, didn’t know it was another name for acid, and just took it – me and Ozzy and these girls. Ozzy went for a swim in the ocean – at least he thought he did, but he was still on the beach, flailing away in the sand.”
