The Osbournes vs. Massive IRS Tax Lien


Even the Prince of Darkness has to pay up to Uncle Sam.

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne owe more than $1.7 million in back taxes to the IRS, according to Financial-Planning.com. The rocker turned reality star, 62, and his wife and manager, 58, reportedly owe $718,948 from 2008 and $1.024 million from 2009.

The IRS has placed a lien on their Los Angeles house, meaning if the Osbournes don't pay up soon, they're in serious danger of losing their home. Their daughter Kelly, 26, also owes the government money; TMZ reported that the state of California filed a lien against the actress for $34,000 last month.

Sharon wrote on her Twitter page last Friday: "You can't rely on anyone but yourself. You have to be on top of your own business affairs. My fault..... lesson learned."

Ozzy and Sharon recently listed their Malibu beach house on the market for $10 million.

Whatever. Pocket change to Ozzwald. It's a shame that such a crappy singer could ever make that much money off of singing to begin with.

How is that karma? He starred in a superbowl commercial. The paycheck for that probably covers what he owes the govt.

And why does he deserve bad things because he was in a commercial with Justin Bieber?

I think the concept of karma is based around the idea that you get punished for malicious intent. I really don't see the harm in what he's done, especially considering this is really nothing new for him. He was in a commercial with the Osmonds a while back, and lets not forget his TV show. Music is music, his being in a commercial with Justin Bieber doesn't affect my opinion on him one way or another. Yes, his music is pretty crappy these days, but I doubt that's got anything to do with Justin Bieber. If he decided to start doing duets with him maybe that would be a different story.

Biting him in the ass? Like I said, the amount he got busted for in taxes is probably equal to, or pretty close to what he earned from the commercial. I'm sure he's dreading his own financial ruin as he's selling off one of his 10 million dollar homes.

Also, let's be honest here, looking like a complete idiot is extremely old news in the Ozzy timeline.

I don't know about you but I think being commercial is malicious enough for any metal icon...you're right about Ozzy but I think the gods of metal couldn't handle the fact that he's going on commercials with douchebags maybe this IRS thing is only the beginning of Karama's effect who knows? anyway I wish Ozzy the best but he needs to sober up a little bit though that's not very "ME'AL"

You have different beliefs and ideologies. I myself do not believe in the entity of karma, nor do it make any logical sense to me.

99% of metal is commercial. Do you expect musicians to throw away wealth for the 'metal gods'? How did ozzy become a metal icon if he wasn't commercial? Metal music is probably one of the most types of music filled with conformity; where musicians stick to a certain path to create evil, trashy, heavy, aggressive, metal music that people will like, relate to, and purchase. Obviously there is good music out there, but there's a whole lot of shit. Half these shit bands are just conformists trying to make "metal" music to make a buck, and half the time (lesser) people will like it. Ozzy is one of these sell-outs of music, where he created music that would conform and sell more then real music from the proverbial heart and soul would; more popular and accessible so to speak.

Sounds like your stuck in a metal stereotype, kind of like when I was 16. But what would metal be without that spirit that you behold?

When it comes down to it, it is all a matter of taste. Maybe I shouldn't judge people who enjoy ozzys newer material, limp biskit, kiss, or any of those shitty death metal bands that are death just to be death, like, are they even mad at anything?

Anyways fuck ozzy, and gene simmons.
