In a touching and surreal final on-screen moment, the late Ozzy Osbourne has made his first posthumous television appearance in a pre-recorded cameo on the reality competition show “Lego Masters Jr“. The sweet and playful exchange, shared with his daughter and the show’s host, Kelly Osbourne, saw the “Prince of Darkness” playfully “scare” the young contestants by delivering the finale’s one-hour warning.
The charming cameo, filmed before Ozzy‘s passing in July, aired this week during the season finale. The episode’s challenge was, fittingly, for the young builders to create “Ninjago“-inspired dragons. For the final one-hour countdown, Kelly enlisted some special help from her father, who appeared on a large screen.
“Hi, dad,” Kelly said. “We need someone to scare a few of the kids. Would you mind?”
With a mischievous grin, Ozzy rubbed his hands together and replied, “I’d love to,” before letting out his signature maniacal laugh. As red lights flashed, he delivered his final, playful warning to the contestants.
“One hour left, kids. You’ve got one hour left to finish those builds — or else!” he declared.
The sweet segment concluded with a heartfelt sign-off from his daughter. “Thank you, daddy! That was perfect. We love you,” Kelly said.
The appearance, broadcast just weeks after Osbourne‘s death on July 22, serves as an unexpected and poignant final television memory for his millions of fans. It offers a last glimpse of the beloved, quirky, and funny family man the world came to know and love on the hit MTV reality show “The Osbournes” in the early 2000s.
This final, lighthearted TV moment follows a month of powerful and emotional tributes to the rock icon’s musical legacy. On July 5, he delivered his true final performance at the historic “Back To The Beginning” farewell concert in his hometown of Birmingham, which saw him reunite with the original lineup of Black Sabbath. Just last weekend, his music was celebrated in a star-studded tribute at the MTV VMAs, led by members of Aerosmith, Extreme and Yungblud.
