“F**k off you’re not marrying my daughter”: Ozzy Osbourne’s hilarious reaction when Slipknot’s Sid Wilson proposed to his daughter Kelly during Black Sabbath’s final show
For a 76-year-old Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath’s last show was the culmination of his life’s work and influence, with tens of thousands of fans of the genre he helped create descending upon Birmingham’s Villa Park stadium to see the metal legend and his original bandmates bow out one last time.
For Ozzy, it would have been a highly emotional evening. On more than one occasion, as guitarist and original rifflord Tony Iommi treated the crowd to distortion-soaked classics like War Pigs, Iron Man and Paranoid, Ozzy looked visibly sentimental. Who wouldn’t be?

But that sentimentality extended to Ozzy’s personal life, too, when the evening saw Slipknot’s Sid Wilson – partner of his daughter Kelly – finally popping the question.
In hilarious backstage footage shared by Kelly on Instagram – captioned, “Oh, and this happened yesterday!” – Sid can be seen psyching himself to ask that all-important question.
“Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world,” he begins. However his speech is quickly interrupted by his father-in-law-to-be, who quips: “Fuck off, you’re not marrying my daughter!”
As you’d expect, the hilarious remark paired with the anticipation of the situation leads to rapturous laughter from those present, including Kelly’s mother and Ozzy’s wife and manager, Sharon.
“Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you,” Wilson continues. “In front of our family and all of our friends, Kelly, will you marry me?”
Kelly doesn’t spend much time deliberating, before putting on the engagement ring and jumping into Wilson’s arms. Watch the adorable moment below:

Black Sabbath’s Back to the Beginning final show at Villa Park was a triumph, which saw a pantheon of metal’s elite gather to celebrate the band without whom the genre wouldn’t exist.
The evening saw performances from the likes of Lamb of God – who just released their own official cover of Children of the Grave – Metallica, who wrote on Instagram “Ozzy. Tony. Geezer. Bill. We love you so, so much”, and many, many others.

In another clip posted to Metallica’s Instagram, a who’s who of heavy metal’s A-list can be seen mingling during the show, with James Hetfield taking a photo with Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, and even Billy Corgan showing Sharon Osbourne a funny video on his phone (the pair famously had a feud back in the late ‘90s, so it’s safe to say they’ve now buried the hatchet).
“It’s like a heavy metal summer camp!” remarks Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich.
