    He’s like the only major rock star from the 60s-80s period I can think of who I haven’t heard about sexually harassing or assaulting someone at some point

    e; I stand corrected

    The couple used to physically fight regularly and, according to Osbourne, they would “beat the shit out of each other.” She has described herself as “a beaten woman” when she was at the hands of husband Ozzy where he once knocked out her front teeth. She once retaliated by throwing a full bottle of scotch at his head.

      I think he was assaulted as a youth so he knew the damage and trauma that can cause. I doubt he would wish those experiences on anyone.

      The thing with ozzy is that all his demons were very firmly in his past and he owned up and fixed it for the most part. He used to be a drug addled asshole but he didn’t remain so

      Lemmy, Eddie Van Halen, Rob Halford, Ronnie James Dio off the top of my head.

      Edit: Oh and Bruce Dickinson as far as I know has also always been a standup guy.
