Ozzy Osbourne almost unrecognisable with grey hair

Ozzy Osbourne is famous for his long locks, but the rocker has changed up his look and is now sporting grey hair.

The Prince of Darkness has gone grey.

Ozzy Osbourne, 71, was snapped last week sporting silver tresses, a decidedly different hue from his usual dark locks.

Perhaps Osbourne is taking some beauty tips from his wife, Sharon, who has also embraced her own grey hair.

The Crazy Train singer has suffered a number of health setbacks. Earlier this year he revealed that he’d been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, although he appears to be taking the diagnosis with equanimity.

“Well the one question from me was, ‘Is it a terminal illness?’, and the guy says, ‘No, but life is,’” Osbourne told the Mirror. “It’s just another thing on my plate I have got to deal with. I’m not in the slightest worried about it.”

And the English-born rocker has no intention of hanging it all up.

“You know the time when I will retire? When I can hear them nail a lid on my box. And then I’ll f***ing do an encore,” he continued. “I’m the Prince of Darkness.”
