Here it is – probably the dumbest feud of 2024 thus far.
It all started on a recent episode of The Osbournes when the topic of TikTok dances came up. The conversation eventually turned to Ozzy Osbourne, who said: "I'm fed up of seeing poor old Britney Spears on YouTube [ed note: he means TikTok and Instagram]," said Ozzy before Sharon Osbourne clarified that he only meant her dancing. "Every fucking day. It's sad, very, very sad."
Son Jack then chimed in, joking "Save Britney" while daughter Kelly added: "I know. I feel so sorry for her." A few more comments were made about Spears' generally dancing presence on the platform being sad before everyone ultimately moved on. Except Spears, who caught wind of the comments and was rightfully irritated.
Spears has now issued the below statement defending her decision to dance, saying it's not even a big part of her social media, and ending it all with: "I'm gonna do a photoshoot with Kate [Beckinsale] and tell the Osbourne family who is the most boring family known to mankind to kindly fuck off!"
And maybe it's ridiculous to side with Spears on a metal blog, but yeah – who gives a shit if someone's dancing on their social media. If they're having fun and it's not harming anyone or anything, let 'em be. Also, and perhaps most importantly, the unsubscribe and "see less often" options are always readily available for any stuff you're obviously not into.
The Osbourne has not yet responded to Spears. Unless Ozzy was talking shit in Spears' comment section and I didn't see it, which is entirely possible.
