What was Ozzy Osbourne’s net worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Osbourne had a staggering net worth of $US220 million ($A335 million) at the time of his death.

The majority of his wealth stems from his 50-year-long career in the music industry.

Osbourne first rose to fame in the early 1970s as the frontman of Black Sabbath. However, his substance abuse issues led to his firing from the band in 1979.

The singer then launched a successful career, releasing 13 studio albums.

In 1996, Osbourne created Ozzfest, a travelling music festival that showcased both legendary and up-and-coming metal acts.

The event was a hit, drawing over five million concert-goers and grossing more than $US100 million ($A152 million) over the years.

The tour also made Osbourne the heavy metal star to surpass $US50 million ($A76 million) in merchandise sales.

In addition to his music career, Ozzy also built his fortune through his reality television shows.

He became a pop culture phenomenon with “The Osbournes,” which aired on MTV from 2002 to 2005.

The series followed the home life of Ozzy, his wife, and their children, Jack and Kelly.

At the time, the show’s first season became the highest-rated series in MTV history.

According to Parade, each family member made $US20,000 ($A30,500) per episode for the first season. A total of $US80,000 ($A122,000) for the family.

Season 1 of the show had 10 episodes, netting the Osbournes $US800,000 ($A1.22 million).

As the series went on, Sharon negotiated their contracts for season 2 to $US5 million ($A7.6 million) per family member for the season, plus other perks.
