When asked how Sharon is holding up his mother, Jack responded, “She’s okay but she’s not okay… She must feel the love, I am aware.

He shared a moving farewell concert in which he said, “I ran back into the dressing room and gave him a big hug.

I gave him a quick kiss. I simply said, “Crush it,” and I was right. You’re going to do it all right. I was crying as well. There was a crowd where I was with my brother, and we both were just crying.

“It wasn’t because I had feelings for him,” he continued. We weren’t sad for him, though. We were aware that this was the last time, in my opinion. If you consider it in context, it kind of seemed like a living wake. He had to bid goodbye to everyone.

Guns N’ Roses, Metallica, Yungblud, and Anthrax were among the metal and rock stars who performed at the Villa Park concert, along with video messages from Dolly Parton, Ricky Gervais, and Jack Black.

The Prince of Darkness, a musician known as the Prince of Darkness, climbed onto his throne through a trap door in order to make his final entrance.

The last members of the star-studded lineup were Ozzy and his original Black Sabbath bandmates, Tony Iommi, Terence “Geezer” Butler, and Bill Ward.

Ozzy’s family joined fans in biding his heavy metal hero’s final respects during a procession in Birmingham that saw the hearse passing the star’s childhood home in Lodge Road, Aston.

The BBC has since aired a documentary titled Sharon And Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home, which chronicles the final three years of Ozzy’s life as he and Sharon plan a return to the UK.

Ozzy: No Escape From Now, a documentary that follows the music legend through his final years, airs on Paramount+ on Tuesday, and includes clips from his farewell concert and funeral.

In July, the contentious music producer was found guilty of two counts of transporting former girlfriends for prostitution despite being cleared of the more serious charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.

After 13 hours of deliberation, the jury delivered the guilty verdict. Diddy was seen praying in front of his chair as the verdict was overturned. The music mogul turned around and clapped in front of his children and family, who had come out in support of him.

Details about his sex life and “freak off parties” that involved ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura were revealed earlier this year during the trial, which included her before-sentence statements.

The music mogul was denied bail and has been in police custody as of right now. The disgraced star should spend more than 11 years in prison, according to federal prosecutors, who claim he is “unrepentant.”

In a lengthy letter on Thursday, Diddy pleaded with the judge. He claimed that he “got lost in his journey” and “lost his way.”

“Lost in the excess and the drugs. My selfishness was the cause of my failure. I’ve been completely humbled and broken. A new version of me was born after the former me passed away in jail. I choose to live because of fear that fate will change you or kill you.

He requested that Judge Arun Subramanian grant him the right to serve as an “exeample of what a person can do with a second chance.”

He added, “I have no one to blame for my current reality and situation but myself for the hardest two years of my life.” I’ve made many mistakes in my life, but I’m no longer trying to stop them.

The mere words “I’m sorry” cannot erase the pain from the past, but I am aware that the mere words “I’m sorry” will never be sufficient.

The actor cited the footage of him assaulting Cassie and the pain he caused to his ex-partner, “Janes,” as saying that he had time to “look in the mirror like never before.”

He begged the judge, “I ask for mercy today, not just for my sake but for the sake of my children.”

Taylor Swift has revealed that she could “barely” lift her arms or walk during her downtime on the Eras Tour. The 35-year-old pop sensation, who performed for over three hours a night during her 149 shows worldwide between March 2023 and December 2024, confessed that physical exhaustion left her with little energy to do anything but write her new album The Life of a Showgirl.

She admitted to Scott Mills on the BBC Radio 2 Breakfast Show that she enjoys baking, cooking, and any other hobbies involving food. And because I couldn’t move my arms or walk, I didn’t really have many hobbies when I was on The Eras Tour.

I’ve only ever written songs. You don’t really need to be able to walk or lift your arms, you know. There is a lot of agony.

The Swedish producer Fate of Ophelia found solace in working on the album during her breaks, which gave her the creative satisfaction she needed to get through the tour.

She continued, “I think the energy that I experienced on that tour was so great and infectious, and I wrote the majority of this while I was on that tour. So, I would travel to Sweden three times in a stadium, take a tour back, and then take a different country.

Although it sounds like an impossible feat or ridiculous challenge, I felt like I had to step back in that creative space because I was physically exhausted at the time of the tour, which gave me the courage to do so.

You must enjoy it, they say. We occasionally say, “We survived it again.” “

Taylor recently revealed her wedding plans to the host during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show where she stated she wants to have a lavish wedding with as many guests as possible.

When questioned about the beginning stages of the planning, she responded, “No, I am doing the album thing now, which is important, and then I think the wedding is what happens after that in the scheme of the planning.”

She continued, “I’m so excited about it. Because I believe that the only stressful weddings are those where there are only a few guests, I am aware that it will be fun to plan. You must assess your relationship with them to determine whether they should be present. That’s not what I’m going to do. I shouldn’t have said that.
