Rock icon Ozzy Osbourne has launched a scathing critique of Los Angeles, labelling the city as "horrible" and revealing his plans to relocate back to the UK. The Black Sabbath frontman, known for his outspoken nature, didn't hold back in his assessment of LA's current state.
During a recent interview, Osbourne expressed his disillusionment with the city, stating, "It's not what it used to be." The 75-year-old musician, who has lived in Los Angeles for decades, cited rising crime rates and a decline in quality of life as key reasons for his decision to leave.
A Return to British Roots
Osbourne, who rose to fame in the 1970s with Black Sabbath, hinted at a possible return to his hometown of Birmingham. "There's no place like home," he remarked, suggesting that England's cultural familiarity and family ties were drawing him back.
The rocker's comments come amid growing concerns about safety and living conditions in Los Angeles, with several high-profile figures echoing similar sentiments in recent months.
Celebrity Exodus from LA?
Osbourne isn't the only celebrity expressing dissatisfaction with Los Angeles. His remarks follow Alec Baldwin's recent criticism of the city's "deteriorating" environment. This has sparked discussions about a potential trend of celebrities reconsidering their LA residency.
Despite his plans to leave, Osbourne confirmed he would maintain his connections to the American music industry, including potential future collaborations and projects.
