Rocker Ozzy Osbourne was so hooked on cocaine during the 1970s that he took his own drug dealer on tour with him.
Ozzy boasted that the mystery character would trek with them carrying large volumes of the class A narcotic. The singer declared that coke became the “meaning of life” rather than wowing fans as he needed a fix every 15 minutes.
He said: “In Sabbath, when we discovered cocaine, it was like the meaning of life. We had a dealer on the road with us. We had this guy, he was a bit strange. And he’d have these f***ng bags with these big f***ing chunks of coke..big bags of coke.”

The ex Black Sabbath singer was in the toilet cubicle trying to make a wooden spoon out of a matchbox to snort off when he spotted the officer. He added: “I bent down and I see these black boots having a stand at the urinal.
“It’s a f***ing copper and I’m standing on one leg with this toot of f***ing coke, waiting for this guy to finish his p*** so I could blow it.” The Prince of Darkness feared getting busted, but still needed to get his fix.

“He went. It was f***ing killing me but I was determined to do it. But I did it.”
Ozzy candidly admitted that: “When you first discover a drug you go ‘this is what I have been looking for all my life’, but you will feel that way again.” He told friend and co-host Billy Morrison: “How the f*** you and I are still breathing is a miracle.”
