Ozzy Osbourne apologizes to Britney Spears for mock dance videos: 'I'm so sorry… But it's the same dance every day!'

The king of darkness Ozzy Osbourne has once again shown his bright side. The metal legend offered a mea culpa to Britney Spears in his latest episode The Osbournes podcast after daughter Kelly Osbourne asked her dad if their family owed Spears an apology.

After first repeating Ozzy's offensive comments, Ozzy offered a less than appeasing peace offering from offspring Jack and Kelly. “Brittney, I really owe you an apology,” Ozzy said. “I am very sorry for making this comment. However, you better not do the same f–king dance every day! Change up some moves… I love Britney Spears, but it's the same dance every day!”

That comment drew a loud jab from Jack, while Kelly noted that she's a fan of Britney's dancing — “Britney, never stop dancing, I love your dancing, it makes you happy” — while apologizing on behalf of the family if he felt insulted. with wife Sharon adding “I really like Britney.” The family also took issue with Ozzy's claim that it was literally the same dance every day, with Kelly and Jack noting that sometimes “there are knives”.

Ozzy then leaned into a less unusual change, adding: “I really do apologize. I love you and I think you're beautiful.”

The feud began two weeks ago when Ozzy criticized Spears' dance videos, telling his family's podcast that he was “sick of seeing poor old Britney Spears [dancing] on YouTube every day. It's sad, very, very sad,” with Sharon adding, “poor little thing.” At the time, Spears responded with a terse post on Instagram that has since been deleted, in which she said, “I'm going to say… to the Osbourne family who are the most boring family known to mankind to put it mildly!”

Spears has long made a habit of posting dance videos from her home in which she performs interpretative movements to her favorite songs.
