Ozzy Osbourne has found yet another way to shock the world, by selling his own DNA. In a bizarre but oddly fitting collaboration, the 76-year-old Black Sabbath legend partnered with beverage company Liquid Death to release a limited run of iced tea cans infused with traces of his saliva. Just ten of these collector's items, each personally sipped and signed by Osbourne, were produced and sold for £335 (₹35,000) apiece. Unsurprisingly, they have all been snapped up.

‘Clone me, you b**s’: Ozzy’s latest stunt sells out


The eccentric campaign, titled Infinite Ozzy, came with a promotional video showing the rock icon drinking from the cans before crushing and sealing them. The ad imagines a future where science and legal permissions allow fans to clone their very own Ozzy, whether to mow lawns, sing at birthday parties, or just cause general chaos.


“Introducing Infinitely Recyclable Ozzy,” the narrator declares, offering a can of low-calorie iced tea packed with B vitamins, Osbourne’s DNA, and his handwritten autograph. “There will never be another Ozzy Osbourne… unless you have his actual DNA.”

Responding to the quirky project, Osbourne quipped, “Clone me, you b****s!” And while there is no scientific guarantee attached, the gag has certainly drawn attention. The cans, which are sealed airtight to ‘preserve’ the DNA, sold out almost instantly. Fans may never actually clone Ozzy, but they now own a bizarre piece of rock history.

Final show, fresh energy: Ozzy prepares for farewell

The stunt arrives ahead of a major milestone, Ozzy’s upcoming farewell show Back to the Beginning, set for 5 July at Villa Park in Birmingham. The event will have, for the first time in two decades, all four original Black Sabbath members: Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward, take the stage together.


Despite battling Parkinson’s disease and enduring multiple surgeries, Osbourne insists he is giving it his all. “By hook or by crook, I’ll be there,” he said on his SiriusXM show Ozzy Speaks. Whether seated on a throne or rolling in on a cart, he is determined to make it happen.

The concert will also be streamed live, giving global fans one last chance to witness the Prince of Darkness in action.

Kajol caught in a storm of criticism for saying actors endure more stress than office workers

Highlights:

  • The actress defended her claim that acting demands more than desk jobs in a recent interview.
  • She said office workers can "chill out" during work hours, unlike film stars.
  • Fans and working professionals called her comments privileged and out of touch.
  • The backlash started after her appearance on Amazon Prime's Two Much with Kajol & Twinkle.
  • Critics pointed out the financial gap and support systems actors have compared to regular employees.

Kajol probably didn't expect this reaction when she sat down with Twinkle Khanna on Two Much. But her comments about actors working harder than people with 9-to-5 jobs have blown up, and not in a good way.
