Victoria Spartz, 47, entered Ozzy&#8217;s biography into the Congressional Record, and afterwards a TMZ reporter asked the pair: &#8220;Are you guys political at all?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jack replied: &#8220;You know what, I think celebrities just need to keep their mouth shut. Make entertainment. Entertain the people. Shut the f*** up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The reporter then asked him: &#8220;Don&#8217;t you think if you have a platform, and you got like a big opinion, you should maybe use your platform to change hearts and minds, maybe?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nJack responded: &#8220;Then be a politician, don&#8217;t be an entertainer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nQuizzed on whether he would one day become a politician, Jack declared: &#8220;No!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nHowever, Sharon teased that she may after the star pointed her index finger up.<\/p>\n<p>\nBut she remained tight-lipped on what position.<\/p>\n<p>\nSharon only told the outlet how her late husband&#8217;s biography going into the Congressional Record &#8220;was a great honour for him&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nAnd the pair wish the Black Sabbath frontman &#8211; who died of cardiac arrest, with Parkinson&#8217;s disease, in July 2025 at the age of 76 &#8211; was with them.<\/p>\n<p>\nJack said: &#8220;It just made us miss him. He would&#8217;ve loved it. He would&#8217;ve been truly honoured to be a part of this today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nHe added: &#8220;It was a beautiful day, we had an awesome tour of the Capitol. It&#8217;s been a good day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nIn March, Jack honoured the Prince of Darkness by naming his and wife Aree Gearhart&#8217;s baby girl, Ozzy Matilda Osbourne.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe couple &#8211; who welcomed Ozzy into the world on March 5 &#8211; took to Instagram, and posted a black-and-white video of baby Ozzy asleep, while a note card confirmed her date of birth, and noted she weighed seven pounds and four ounces.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn another nod to Jack&#8217;s late dad, she was lying near a black Jellycat bat.<\/p>\n<p>\nJack and Aree captioned the adorable upload: &#8220;Introducing Ozzy Matilda Osbourne.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe pair are already parents to a three-year-old daughter called Maple.<\/p>\n<p>\nJack is also a dad to daughters Pearl Clementine, 13, Andy Rose, 10, and seven-year-old Minnie Theodora with his ex-wife Lisa Stelly.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/jack-osbourne-thinks-celebrities-just-need-keep-mouth-shut-comes-politics-1444523.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>16 May 2026 Jack Osbourne says celebrities should &#8220;shut the f*** up&#8221; when it comes to politics.
