Sharon Osbourne, 73, says she is hospitalized and therefore cannot attend a tribute to her husband, rock singer Ozzy Osbourne, at Hellfest in France. Multiple reports state that she had been scheduled to attend the festival ahead of Father’s Day to see a large statue dedicated to Ozzy, described as about 20 feet tall by at least one outlet. Sharon explains that an unexpected hospital visit this week prevented her from traveling and attending the unveiling. The coverage includes her expressing appreciation to those involved in the tribute, including the festival team and the artist who made the statue. One report notes that Sharon last required hospitalization in 2022 after fainting. Separately, one outlet also mentions ongoing discussion about an AI avatar being developed for Ozzy, and says this has drawn controversy. Across the reports, the central point is that Sharon’s health situation is the reason she misses the statue unveiling at Hellfest.
