Ozzy Osbourne and his family recently caused quite a stir with their comments about Britney Spears’ dance videos. It all began during a July episode of ‘The Osbournes Podcast,’ where a listener asked Kelly Osbourne if she would ever post TikTok dances. Kelly’s firm “no” led to a discussion that soon veered into controversial territory.
Britney Spears has been a controversial figure for several reasons ranging from her mental health issues, her infamous relationship with Justin Timberlake, to her familial issues that often make the headlines. Unsurprisingly, she is no stranger to criticism, a majority of which stems from her TikTok account these days. Osbourne happened to make a distasteful comment about the same during the convo, and is now apologizing for it. Here’s what happened.
