Addition
Ozzy Osbourne confirmed his Parkinson's diagnosis in 2020. In recent years, he had to undergo several operations, including complex surgery in 2019 after a serious spinal injury.
Three years before his death, the musician shared his thoughts on how he would like to be remembered. In an interview with People magazine in 2022, the heavy metal legend said: "Survival is my legacy."
"I'm 73. People say, 'Well, you're 70... why don't you give up?' And why? People still want to buy my records. People still want to see me, so why should I? It motivates me to get off my ass and do something. I mean, if my career went south and I knew it was the end, I'd be very unhappy," he said.
