Ozzy Osbourne has warned fans to not snort Liquid Death‘s Death Dust in a new advert for the drink company.
The Prince of Darkness has made an appearance in the latest advert for Liquid Death’s brand-new product Death Dust – an electrolyte drink mix available in three flavours. The commercial clip sees two teens pouring a sachet of the drink mix into a cup while out on the street.
Osbourne then pulls up in a black SUV and stops the boys by yelling “Hey Kids. Death Dust? Take it from me, don’t snort that stuff.” One of the boys then responds to the rock icon by saying that they weren’t planning on doing so and that they were going to “mix it and hydrate”.
The singer goes on to say: “Whatever you do, don’t try freebasing it and never ever inject it. And don’t even think about boofing it, you little perverts.” He then starts to explain what “boofing” is before being cut off with a clip of the product being used correctly. The end of the advert sees Osbourne’s car speed off.
Speaking about the collaboration in a press release, Osbourne said: “I love how Liquid Death makes a healthy thing like hydration more fun. Sharon, the family, and I drink Liquid Death all the time, it’s delicious. But seriously, don’t snort or inject anything they make. It’s much better for drinking.”
The Prince of Darkness is known for his wild moments such as when he accidentally bit the head off of a live bat while performing at the Des Moines Veterans Memorial Auditorium on January 20, 1982.
There was also an incident where he allegedly snorted a line of ants that was chronicled in Mötley Crüe‘s 2019 biopic The Dirt.
The 2019 Netflix film showed a scene in which a young Ozzy Osbourne (played by Tony Cavalero) holds an impromptu gross-out contest with Sixx (played by Douglas Booth) in 1984 during the two acts’ joint U.S. tour. Ozzy proceeds to ask Motley Crue if they have cocaine and after being handed a straw, he snorts a crawling line of ants. He then urinates on the ground and licks it up, challenging Sixx to do the same.
In an episode of The Osbournes Podcast – which features Ozzy and his wife Sharon in discussion with their children Jack and Kelly – Jack asked his parents if the story was in fact true.
“I was not there, thank God. I used to try and stay away from Mötley when they were with Ozzy. And I don’t know. I honestly don’t know. All I know is that I think it made their movie. And I wanna know why, now we’re on the subject, of why, when they advertise their movie on Netflix, it’s a picture of a guy imitating Ozzy. Why isn’t the ad campaign a picture of MÖTLEY CRÜE? Why is it a picture of your father?” said Sharon.
In other news, Black Sabbath‘s Geezer Butler recently shared that Ozzy “desperately wants” to play one final show with the band.
