Kelly Osbourne has responded to online trolls who criticized her BRIT Awards appearance after honoring her late father Ozzy alongside her mom Sharon.
The BRIT Awards, hosted in Manchester, England, on Saturday (February 28) saw big names like Dua Lipa, Mark Ronson and Olivia Dean hit the red carpet.
However, the night turned toward a lost legend, Ozzy Osbourne, who was given a posthumous lifetime achievement award at the event for his decades of Black Sabbath hits.

Sharon pointed out on the red carpet that the posthumous recognition was particularly poignant since across his five-decade career Ozzy never won a BRIT award, although he did host the ceremony in 2008.
The Black Sabbath frontman sadly passed away in July last year, at age 76.He had just completed his Back To The Beginning farewell concert in his home city of Birmingham.
At the BRITs, the tribute to Ozzy saw Robbie Williams front the songs, while Kelly and Sharon watched on.
However, many instead focused on Kelly’s appearance, with many speculating that the 41-year-old had been using GLP-1 medication to lose weight.
The ‘Changes’ singer took to her Instagram Stories, where she hit out against people who commented on her looks.
She said: “There is a special kind of cruelty in harming someone who is clearly going through something.“Kicking me while I’m down, doubting my pain, spreading my struggles as gossip, and turning your back when I need support and love most.”
She added: “None of it proves strength; it only reveals a profound absence of compassion and character. I’m currently going through the hardest time in my life. I should not even have to defend myself. But I won’t sit here and allow myself to be dehumanized in such a way!”
But this isn’t the first time she has addressed comments on her weight, after noticeably looking slimmer after the death of her father, which Sharon had noted was due to Kelly’s inability to eat during her grief.Last December, she posted a since-deleted Instagram video, in which she said to the critics: “All those people, f*** off”.
She went on to say: “To the people who keep thinking they’re being funny and mean by writing comments like ‘Are you ill,’ or ‘Get off Ozempic, you don’t look right,’ my dad just died, and I’m doing the best that I can, and the only thing I have to live for right now is my family.”
In an interview with People, she also explained: “I have been a drug addict, an alcoholic … I’ve been a complete mess, disrespectful to people, horrible.
« But I got more s*** for being fat than I did for anything else. It’s insane.”
The 41-year-old and daughter of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne has certainly had a tricky past year following the death of her dad in July 2025.
But as is the case with any form of grief, you try to carry on – but that has certainly been made harder for Kelly given the awful abuse she’s received regarding her appearance.
The television personality has addressed those body-shaming comments head on by sharing some of them to her Instagram Stories.
One social media user described Kelly as ‘too thin and fragile’, disgustingly adding that she looks like a ‘dead body’ who would be ‘going to see her dad soon’.
« Literally can’t believe how disgusting some human beings truly are! No one deserves this sort of abuse! » Kelly wrote alongside a screenshot of the some of the abuse she’s endured.Kelly has been the victim of a fair bit of abuse since Ozzy died last summer, and in December she discussed some of the ‘horrible, mean and rude comments’ she’s received.
Taking to Instagram on December 10 2025, Kelly wrote: « I’m just here to say, ‘What do you expect from me? What do you expect me to look like right now?’ The fact that I’m getting out of bed and facing my life and trying to be more than enough, I should be commended for that. »
Slamming those writing the ‘sick comments’, the former reality TV star added: « For example, you say that I look ill. Well, I am ill right now. My life is completely flipped upside down. I don’t understand how people expect me to bounce back and look like everything is just fine in my life when it’s not. »In a clip that she later deleted, Kelly continued: « To the people who keep thinking they’re being funny and mean by writing comments like ‘Are you ill,’ or ‘Get off Ozempic, you don’t look right.’ My dad just died, and I’m doing the best that I can, and the only thing I have to live for right now is my family. And I choose to share my content with you and share the happy side of my life not the miserable side of my life. »
After Ozzy’s very sad passing last year, Kelly took to Instagram to quote Black Sabbath’s song ‘Changes’, as she penned: « I feel unhappy I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had. »
Kelly Osbourne has revealed all when it comes to her parents’ alleged suicide pact.
The singer and reality TV star has lashed out after numerous reports suggested that her mom and dad had set up plans to die by assisted suicide if either was to be diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Kelly, 40, shared the truth behind the claim her parents Ozzy and Sharon made years earlier.
The TV personality rushed to her Instagram stories on Friday July 11 to address the speculation and also hit out at those who have been claiming that her dad is ‘dying’.
It all began in 2023 during The Osbournes podcast, when Sharon revealed euthanasia was ‘still a plan’ for her and the Black Sabbath singer.
Sharon said: “Do you think that we’re gonna suffer?”However, even before the episode, Ozzy previously spoke about it in 2014 and revealed that if he had a ‘life-threatening condition’, he would be open to assisted suicide.
But Kelly is hitting back at claims that it’s really going to happen.
She said to her followers: “I don’t know what side of the bed I woke up on today, but I woke up on a f**king I’m gonna f**k you up and fight you day.”
She raged: “Stop making articles or posts about how you think my parents are having a suicide pact”.
She even went on to claim that it was all an attention seeking ploy, ranting: “That was bulls**t my mom said to get attention one time. And my dad’s not dying. Stop!”
The topic of euthanasia was initially brought up on their podcast by son Jack, who asked if it was ‘still a plan’ for them.
When Sharon asked if he thought they would suffer, he said: “Aren’t we already all suffering?”
To this, Sharon said: “Yes, we all are, but I don’t want it to actually hurt, as well. Mental suffering is enough pain without physical. So if you’ve got mental and physical, see ya.”
Kelly then asked if the possibility of surviving would change her mind, and Sharon was set in her stance.
She said: “Yeah, what if you survived and you can’t wipe your own a**, you’re pissing everywhere, s**tting, can’t eat.”Sharon was once interviewed by The Mirror in 2007, and revealed that she had planned to end her life by assisted suicide if necessary, and had even told her children.
She said: “Ozzy and I have absolutely come to the same decision.
“We believe 100 percent in euthanasia so have drawn up plans to go to the assisted suicide flat in Switzerland if we ever have an illness that affects our brains. If Ozzy or I ever got Alzheimer’s, that’s it – we’d be off.”
As for the rumor that Ozzy is dying, there have been videos created using her father’s voice generated by AI where he admits to knowing that he doesn’t have long left.
To this, Kelly posted a reel slating: “’So, there’s this video going around on social media and it’s supposed to be of my dad and it’s AI.
“And it has a voice like my dad’s David Attenborough or something and it starts out saying, ‘I don’t need a doctor to tell me that I’m going to die. I know I’m going to die.’”
She said: “What the f**k is wrong with you people? Why would you spend your time making a video like this? He’s not dying!”
Ozzy was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease in 2003 and has been battling it ever since.
Earlier this month in Birmingham, Ozzy completed his final live show, reducing the Villa Park stadium to tears, and singing about ‘coming home’ to his native city.
