A clip from 2008 is making the rounds again after Ozzy Osbourne’s death, and fans can’t stop watching it. It shows Sharon Osbourne going after Megan Hauserman on live TV after a brutal insult aimed at Ozzy.
The moment happened on Rock of Love: Charm School. Megan said: “The only thing you’ve managed to do as a celebrity is to watch your husband’s brain turn into a vegetable.”
That set Sharon off. She turned to the audience and said: “I feel so sorry for her,” then calmly took a sip of her drink and tossed the rest of it in Megan’s face.
Security rushed the stage, but Sharon didn’t move. She stood her ground and told the crowd: “They can f*** with me… I don’t give a sh** — but not my family.”
The situation got physical. Sharon grabbed Megan’s hair, scratched her face, and had to be pulled away.
Megan ended up suing Sharon for battery and distress. Sharon fired back with a countersuit, saying Megan had agreed not to sue and broke that deal.
The case was settled in 2011 for a six-figure amount that was never made public. VH1 never re-aired the episode.
Now that the clip is going viral again, fans are praising Sharon for how fiercely she stood by Ozzy. One person said: “The way she loved Ozzy is something not common.”
Another wrote: “Ozzy was the king of metal, but she was the queen. Never attack royalty.”
Others called her a real one. “She doesn’t play when it comes to her man,” someone posted.
Sharon has responded to fans since Ozzy’s death, thanking them for the love. She commented “Bless you” on a tribute post from Gavin Rossdale, who remembered Ozzy as kind, funny, and a true legend.
Ozzy’s family announced his death in a statement Tuesday night. It said: “He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.”
Sharon and Ozzy married in 1982. They had Aimee in 1983, Kelly in 1984, and Jack in 1985.
