Ozzy on his childhood

Written by Marty Dodge
Published December 01, 2003

Ozzy Osbourne has told the Daily Mirror that he was sexually abused as a child. He tells the paper he was regularly molested by other boys on his way home from school in Birmingham. "Two boys used to wait for me. They would force me to drop my pants and all that shit. They felt me and touched me and... it was terrible. I was afraid to tell my father or mother and it completely fucked me up."

He says the abuse first happened when he was with his sister and then continued at regular intervals and "seemed to go forever". Although he has since "worked through the problem" with a therapist Ozzy adds: "If you have a traumatic experience when you are young it does f*** you up."
