Kelly Osbourne and Dee Snider songwriting dispute

Overview

A social media dispute emerged between Kelly Osbourne and Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider regarding the musical legacy of Ozzy Osbourne. The conflict began when Snider suggested on X that Ozzy relied on bass players, such as Bob Daisley, Lemmy Kilmister, and Geezer Butler, to write his lyrics, claiming to know “the truth behind the scenes” and suggesting Sharon Osbourne did not like to share credit.

Kelly Osbourne responded via Instagram Stories, labeling Snider’s remarks as “spectacularly classless” and accusing him of attempting to diminish her father’s achievements as a musician, songwriter, and bandleader. She further critiqued Snider’s own career longevity, noting that while Ozzy’s career spanned nearly six decades, Snider’s mainstream success was more limited.

Snider initially moderated his position on X, stating he has “nothing but love for Ozzy” and acknowledging that the heavy metal icon “changed my life.” Following the tension, Snider issued a direct apology to Kelly Osbourne on X, tagging her and stating, ‘I’m sorry what I said hurt you. It was never my intent. My sympathies on the loss of your dad.’
