Yungblud Hits Back at ‘Bitter & Jealous’ Critics of Ozzy Osbourne Tribute at MTV VMAs
Yungblud called critics of his MTV VMA tribute to Ozzy Osbourne "bitter and jealous" and said the performance reached over 100 million viewers, preserving Osbourne's legacy.
- Last month at the MTV Video Music Awards, Yungblud performed a three-song medley with Joe Perry, Steven Tyler and Nuno Bettencourt featuring Black Sabbath classics including `Changes`.
- Because Yungblud had grown close to Ozzy Osbourne , he performed at the Back to the Beginning tribute show, after Ozzy's July 22 death.
- Critics including The Darkness argued recently that Dan Hawkins called the VMA tribute `cynical, nauseating and, more importantly, shit` while Justin Hawkins labeled Yungblud a `poseur`.
- On Jack Osbourne's Trying Not To Die podcast, Yungblud and Jack Osbourne defended Dom's bond with Ozzy and said the tribute reached 100 million people.
- Beyond the controversy, Yungblud's calendar includes promoting Idols and releasing the collaborative EP One More Time on Nov. 21.
