Sharon, Kelly and Jack Osbourne ripped into Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters on the latest episode of “The Osbournes Podcast” after Waters insulted family patriarch Ozzy Osbourne following his death in June. Waters told The Independent Ink in August that Ozzy “was all over the TV for hundreds of years with his idiocy and nonsense” and added: “The music, I have no idea. I couldn’t give a fuck.”
Speaking on the podcast (via Entertainment Weekly), Sharon Osbourne called Waters “one of the most twisted, sick individuals I’ve come across in years,” with Kelly slamming Waters as a “fucking c—.”
“He isn’t, because c—s are good. He has no charisma, okay? He looks like Frankenstein,” Sharon added. “The guy is sick in the head… Nobody likes him. This is not just us. Nobody likes this man unless you’re a fascist. He’s one of those… He’s just pathetic.”
When Kelly said that she hopes Waters “shits himself in public,” Sharon responded: “That’s too good. Shit makes flowers grow. The guy’s got nothing good in him. He’s just a pathetic, lonely… I do not know how those guys in Pink Floyd put up with him as long as they did.”
Jack Osbourne originally responded to Waters’ Ozzy insults in a September social media post where he wrote: “Hey @rogerwaters, fuck you. How pathetic and out of touch you’ve become. The only way you seem to get attention these days is by vomiting out bullshit in the press. My father always thought you were a c— — thanks for proving him right.”
Speaking together as a family on the new podcast episode, Jack remembered how Ozzy would always say he loved Pink Floyd as a band but hated Waters as a person. Then Sharon added: “Do you know what he is? He’s like a sad, irrelevant, old, miserable human being — a miserable, ugly human being.”
“He’s the worst word you can think of, and most people when you say the word c— take great offense,” Kelly concluded. “So I send great offense to you, Roger Waters. You are a f—ing c—.”

The Osbourne family has been outspoken against Waters for years. The Pink Floyd singer appeared to wear a Nazi SS uniform during a 2023 concert in Germany, which was followed by accusations that he routinely uses antisemitic language. Sharon Osbourne reacted on “The Talk” at the time by saying Waters should be put in “an old people’s home. That is where he belongs.” Waters has denied claims of antisemitism.
