Just before Ozzy Osbourne’s final show at Villa Park in Birmingham, fans expected wild guitars and chaos. What they didn’t expect was a heartfelt video message from Dolly Parton, appearing on the big screen like a gentle light breaking through the darkness.
With her warm Tennessee twang, Dolly wished Ozzy “Good luck, God bless you… and we will see you somewhere down the road.” No fireworks or dramatics—just Dolly being Dolly, sending off the Prince of Darkness like an old friend at the train station. The moment struck a chord beyond genres—it was soul recognizing soul.
On paper, Dolly and Ozzy couldn’t be more different: she’s rhinestones and gospel, he’s leather and thunder. But Dolly’s recent work proves she’s no stranger to rock. Her Rockstar album featured collaborations from Paul McCartney to Mötley Crüe, and her cover of “Stairway to Heaven” felt deeply personal.
