Ozzy Osbourne has done many menacing things throughout his life, including biting a bat's head on stage. However, he recently admitted that there is one thing he's terrified about, and it's something fans won't expect.

The musician took to The Osbournes podcast with his family members, and his son, Jack Osbourne, asked each of them about his greatest fear.

The former Black Sabbath frontman revealed that he's afraid of rats and his wife, Sharon Osbourne.

For the other members of the Osbournes clan, Sharon is not a big fan of heights, while their daughter Kelly answered that she's dealing with being "faced with death in everything."

In other updates about the rocker, Ozzy just launched a new podcast with Billy Morrison titled The Madhouse Chronicles. In one episode, he revealed the best guitarist he has ever worked with, saying it was Tony Iommi.

"I've played 'Paranoid,' I've played 'Children of the Grave' and 'War Pigs.' [Other guitarists] do the notes but it's not the same. I find a lot of the American guys play too fast. Tony Iommi, for whatever reason, he's f*****' great," he said.

This was not the first time he spoke about working with a great guitarist.  In 2019, he previously said that Randy Rhoads was the best guitarist he worked with as a solo artist, and he could write, play, and read music. 

"He taught at his mother's school and had patience with me... And he would work with me, as opposed to me having to work on top of what he put down. It was fun!" he said in a previous interview.

Ozzy Osbourne is set to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame later this year. This would be his second time, as he had also received the honor before as part of the Black Sabbath. 

In an interview with Billboard, he told the outlet he was honored to be included with other musicians.

Ozzy initially didn't like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and he addressed his disappointment in an open letter. In 1999, he told the institution to remove their name from the nomination, saying it felt meaningless. 

However, his mind changed in 2006 after the band was nominated again.
