Jack Osbourne Fires Back: ‘How Pathetic’  His Raw Response to Roger Waters’ Take on Ozzy

According to Saed News, Jack Osbourne took aim at Roger Waters after the Pink Floyd co-founder made blunt remarks about the late Ozzy Osbourne — and Jack did not mince words.

Waters, in a recent interview, said he had “no interest” in Black Sabbath and added he “couldn’t give a f—k” about the music. The comments landed badly with many fans and with Ozzy’s family. On Instagram, Jack responded by calling Waters “pathetic” and wrote, simply, “F—k you,” adding that his father “always thought you were a c—t — thanks for proving him right.” He closed the post with a clown emoji and a hashtag telling his followers how he felt.

The exchange came as fans continue to grieve Ozzy, who died in July after a long illness. Family members announced his passing and asked for privacy; they later shared memories of his life and decades of music, from Black Sabbath’s early days to his solo career. Jack’s reaction is the latest public response from the family circle as the music world sorts through both loss and the inevitable commentary that follows a high-profile death.

Not everyone agreed with Waters’ tone. Some musicians paid tribute to Ozzy’s longevity and the fact he was able to perform one last time for his hometown crowd. Others treated Waters’ words as a deliberately provocative remark — the kind of comment that draws headlines. Waters’ representatives did not immediately offer further explanation beyond the interview.

For Jack Osbourne, the post read as a straightforward defense of his father’s legacy. It was short, blunt and personal — less a debate about musical taste than a son pushing back at what he saw as disrespect in a moment when the family was still mourning.
