Ozzy Osbourne reveals: My most dangerous job and Trump scares me!

Köln, Deutschland - ozzy Osbourne, icon of rock and former front man of the band Black Sabbath, spoke in a recent interview about his eventful past and the dark sides of fame. In 1972 he expressed a remarkable pragmatism: "I think I'm going crazy. Well, and? As long as I enjoy it." This sentence reflects Ozzy's unshakable spirit of life, despite the sometimes terrifying experiences he has had with drugs and alcohol, as well as documented in Harry Shaw's book "Ozzy Osbourne - Talking". In the documentary "The Nine Life of Ozzy Osbourne", his ambivalence is also discussed. Today he has changed his lifestyle and only consumes mineral water while he used to be an excessive drinker and drug user.

Osbourne looks back with mixed feelings and finds that many people who blame the rock and roll are an excellent source of income for him. In an amusing review, he told about one of his worst jobs: testing cars in a soundproof room, where he "evaluated" up to 1,500 horns a day. Ironically, he found the time in a slaughterhouse to be more bearable.

reflections on fame and society

Osbourne also expressed concerns about the current political climate. He compares Donald Trump, the former president of the United States, with Hitler and describes him as "crazy". These comparative remarks not only show Ozzy's critical attitude towards populist leaders, but also the discomfort that is associated with the responsibility of fame. Despite all the difficulties in life. He is determined to perform hits like "Paranoid", "Children of the Grave" and "Iron Man" until his death.

The challenges of drugs and addiction are not only limited to Osbourne, but a widespread topic in the music industry. Melanie Patscheck, visiting professor at the University of Music and Dance in Cologne, examines the life stories of heroin -dependent musicians in her dissertation "Addiction & Self -Concepts". Jazz legends such as Charlie Parker illustrate, as talented artists often get into the whirlpool of drugs. Patscheck emphasizes the music -specific addiction factors and also refers to current drug use in rap, where substances such as fentanyl and Xanax are openly addressed in music videos.

The connection between music and drugs remains a critical topic that will continue to be discussed in public. While Osbourne leads a life without drugs and alcohol today, it becomes clear that many artists, including his colleagues, live through similar fights, often while they build their creative heritage. In a world in which the pressure on artists increases, the negative sides of fame sometimes become an inevitable reality.
