Ozzy Osbourne has opened up about his health weeks ahead of his final ever show.
The star, 76, has been battling Parkinson’s disease for years, with his wife Sharon Osbourne revealing just months ago he is no longer able to walk.
After 20 years, Osbourne is reuniting with his Black Sabbath bandmates for one last show in Birmingham, England on July 5 – a milestone he is “giving 120 per cent” to.

“I haven’t done any physical work for the last seven, six and a half, seven years,” the rocker said in a new episode of his show SiriusXM’s Ozzy Speaks as per Billboard and People.
“By hook or by crook, I’m gonna make it there.”
“I’ve got this trainer guy who helps people get back to normal. It’s hard going, but he’s convinced that he can pull it off for me. I’m giving it everything I’ve got.”
Osbourne shared he has his blood pressure taken 15 times a day and has a monitor device to check his heart check.
