Sharon Osbourne<\/strong><\/a> is not happy with Kanye West<\/strong><\/a> using a sample from Ozzy Osbourne<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s song \u201cWar Pigs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cKanye f\u2013ked with the wrong Jew this time,\u201d Sharon, 71, said in a statement to TMZ<\/a> on Friday, February 9, while noting that she and Ozzy, 75, have sent a cease and desist to West, 46.<\/p>\n

Sharon told the outlet someone from West\u2019s team reached out to her and Ozzy three weeks ago about using the song and claimed they told them \u201cabsolutely not.\u201d Sharon revealed that Ozzy typically approves requests but decided to say no to West\u2019s ask due to his past antisemitic remarks.<\/p>\n

Earlier on Friday, Ozzy released a statement<\/a> of his own, slamming West for going forward with using the sample without his permission.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tSticking together. Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne have encountered many ups and downs during their decades-long marriage, but they are still fighting for their relationship.

Before the album\u2019s release, West has been dealing with the backlash over his numerous antisemitic comments<\/a> over the years. In October 2022, West tweeted he was going \u201cdeath con 3 [sic] on JEWISH PEOPLE.\u201d<\/p>\n

His comment led to him getting banned from the platform<\/a> and losing several sponsorships. West then appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored<\/em> to apologize for his remarks. Two months later, West sat down with Alex Jones<\/strong> where he stated he saw \u201cgood things about Hitler<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n
