Ozzy Osbourne’s Health Update: Blood Clot Concerns
Facing Health Challenges: Ozzy’s Power Trip Festival Setback
The heavy metal community was saddened to learn that Ozzy Osbourne had to cancel his highly anticipated appearance at the Power Trip festival due to ongoing health concerns. The iconic musician has been facing a series of health challenges, and in a recent interview with SiriusXM’s Ozzy Speaks co-host Billy Morrison, he shed light on his most recent ordeal involving a blood clot filter.
The Blood Clot Filter: A Necessary Precaution
“When I had the blood clots in my legs, they put a filter in your artery to stop the blood clots going to your heart and your brain. It sounds worse than it is,” Ozzy shared candidly. “So, on Monday I went to have it removed. The blood clots have jammed you all up. It’s just disappointment after disappointment. Just get this thing fucking done so I can go get on with my life.”
Judas Priest Steps In: Power Trip Festival Replacement
The news of Ozzy’s health issues led to a swift replacement for the Power Trip festival, with the legendary Judas Priest stepping in to fill his shoes. Although Ozzy expressed regret over the cancellation, he made it clear that his primary concern is delivering a stellar performance when he’s truly ready to return to the stage.
Resilience and Setbacks: Ozzy’s Journey
This isn’t the first time health challenges have impacted Ozzy‘s touring schedule. In 2023, a European tour had to be called off, and his North American farewell tour remains in limbo. Despite these setbacks, Ozzy’s spirit remains unbroken, and his resilience is an inspiration to millions of fans worldwide.
