Before his death, Ozzy Osbourne revealed details about the moment he nearly ended his life after being falsely told he was HIV positive.

The nightmare unfolded in the early 1980s after a wild hookup at the Sunset Marquis Hotel in West Hollywood.

“I boinked this chick,” the Black Sabbath frontman recalled when a doctor later suggested he get an HIV test.

The doctor told him the test came back “borderline positive,” meaning it could not confirm the result. Ozzy would need a retest, but the follow-up wouldn’t come back for a full week.

“I told him quite seriously, ‘Look, doctor, I can’t wait that long because I’ll have killed myself by then.’ And I would have,” he said.

Seven agonizing days later, the second test revealed he was negative.

The End Of His Cheating Past

According to Ozzy, the shocking result wasn’t a virus, it was the drugs.

He claimed: “I was doing so many drugs, my immune system was depressed. So it appeared I was HIV positive.”

That moment, he said, marked the end of his reckless sex life.

“I can tell you, that was the end of my career as a Casanova,” Ozzy said. “I never cheated on Sharon again.”

The revelation was one of the most harrowing moments from the rocker, whose life was filled with chaos, addiction and notoriety.

Osbourne, who passed away this week at age 76, spent his later years battling a string of serious health setbacks, including Parkinson’s disease, spinal surgery and a life-threatening staph infection.

The rocker was diagnosed with Parkinson’s back in 2019, which completely altered his lengthy career.
