Former W.A.S.P. guitarist CHRIS HOLMES sat down with The Metal Voice on a live chat and discussed the legacy and his personal stories with Ozzy Osbourne.
Holmes spoke about the legacy of Ozzy, “Every time I’ve ever met the guy (OZZY), he didn’t have a mean bone in his body. I never heard him say anything mean to anybody or about anything. I will say that. He (Ozzy) went to the top of the mountain and stayed there his whole life, you got to give him credit for that. We went on top and never came down. He was on top forever. “
Holmes went on to talk about the time he had few BBQ’s with the Osbournes when he was married to Lita Ford and Ford was managed by Sharon Osbourne.
According to the BBC Metal pioneer Ozzy Osbourne passed away on July 22, 2025

“He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.
