Overview
- Kelly Osbourne, 41, joined her mother Sharon onstage at Manchester’s Co-op Live to accept a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award for Ozzy Osbourne at Saturday’s BRIT Awards.
- Following the broadcast, social media commentary fixated on Kelly’s appearance and weight loss, leading her to post a rebuke on Instagram early Sunday.
- She called the criticism “a special kind of cruelty,” wrote that she is “currently going through the hardest time in my life,” and said she “won’t sit here and allow myself to be dehumanized.”
- The ceremony featured a Sharon-curated performance of No More Tears led by Robbie Williams with longtime Ozzy collaborators Adam Wakeman, Metallica’s Robert Trujillo, Tommy Clufetos and Zakk Wylde.
- Ozzy died on July 22, 2025, at 76, and the family has continued public tributes and defenses of Kelly as they manage grief and preserve his musical legacy.
