Former Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne said he is "fed up" with seeing Britney Spears dancing online.
Since Spears' 13-year conservatorship ended in 2021, the pop star has been sharing her healing process with fans on social media, which has often included videos of her dancing.
During Tuesday's episode of The Osbournes Podcast, titled "Are The Osbournes Leaving Hollywood?" which sees the four members of the Osbourne family—Ozzy, his wife Sharon and their kids, Jack and Kelly—catch up on present-day events, they briefly discussed the pop icon.
"I'm fed up with seeing poor old Britney Spears on YouTube," Ozzy said, before Sharon cut in: "Dancing."
Newsweek emailed a spokesperson for Spears for comment on Tuesday.
"Every f****** day," he continued, as the others shared how they felt.
"I feel sorry for her," Kelly said, as her dad added: "You know it's sad, very, very sad."
Sharon referred to Spears as a "poor little thing," before Jack agreed with his father and said it was "very sad indeed."
"It's heartbreaking," Sharon said.
When a spokesperson for Ozzy was asked for comment over email, they simply told Newsweek: "No. It's boring journalism."
In March 2022, Spears posted a dancing video to Instagram and explained that her dancing videos are a source of "healing" for her as she enjoys life free from the conservatorship.
"I recorded 30 videos of dance when I was in Maui ... that's fun to me !!! I know I'm not the best dancer, a lot of people make fun of the way I move but honestly as long as I'm moving and expressing my body outwardly in someway at this point ... that's healing to me !!!" Spears wrote in the caption that accompanied a clip of her performing in a dance studio.
"Therapy is all mind work ... I did that 10 hours a day, 7 days a week when I was abused ... there's nothing worse than torture of the mind ... I'd rather someone slap my face than f*** with my mind !!!"
After the pop singer went through a variety of public issues in 2008, her father, Jamie Spears, and her lawyer put her in a conservatorship. During that time, Spears had no autonomy on her freedom of movement, medical or career decisions. Since then, she has discussed her strained relationship with her family, who have denied any misconduct.
The "Toxic" singer said she was forced to work non-stop and was banned from drugs, alcohol and even coffee. In testimony she gave to a Los Angeles judge in 2021, Spears said doctors forced her to have an IUD contraceptive device inserted to stop her from having children.
In a previous episode of The Osbournes Podcast, Kelly expressed regret over a scene that was filmed for her family's TV show when she was a teenager. The Osbournes was a reality television show in the early 2000s that focused on the domestic life of Ozzy and his family. The series aired on MTV after premiering on March 5, 2002, and ran for four seasons.
During the episode, the four of them discussed whether Jack or Kelly would consider having their own reality show with their young families.
When Kelly said she "definitely" would, Sharon suggested that she should do it quickly before her children "start calling you bastards and swearing at you."
"My mom is referring to this awful scene in The Osbournes where my dad is just trying to come in and be nice to me and see if I'm OK, and I end up losing my s*** and calling him a bastard for absolutely no reason," Kelly explained.
Jack cut in, asking: "No a, a f****** basta—no a f****** bastard or was it f*** off you bastard?"
"F*** off you bastard. So horrible, so horrible," Kelly responded.
"That's my baby," Ozzy added.
