The Prince of Darkness has done a lot of questionable stuff in the entire run of his career, but one that he’d admitted to regretting was when he drugged a vicar – accidentally. Also, he didn’t accept the clergyman’s offer to confess his sins as a result.

Ozzy was still married to Thelma Riley when it happened, where the couple was living in the English countryside. The situation unfolded after he returned from the pub after spending a few days there.

Osbourne said in a recentย GQย interview:ย โ€œIโ€™d bought some hash and Iโ€™d made a cake with it. I put it in a tin and went to the pub and I said to my ex-wife, โ€™Donโ€™t let anybody eat this fucking cake. It will be bad.โ€™ Anyway, I came back from the pub a few days later and I did a double-take, because the vicar was in our house, having a cup of tea in the kitchen with a piece of this cake. I hadnโ€™t got a driving [license], but he was slumped in my kitchen, so I had to drag him out by his hair, push him in the back of his car, drive him to his door and then walk home.โ€

He got worried when the vicar hadn’t shown up for some two weeks. โ€œI thought Iโ€™d killed him,โ€ he said. โ€œThen I saw him in a pub on a Sunday morning and he said, โ€˜I must have caught such a dreadful flu at yours. I hallucinated for three days and had to miss church.โ€™ I was just relieved to see him. โ€˜Fucking hell, heโ€™s alive!โ€™ Because that was a big chunk of hash.โ€

Asked how a vicar ended up in the home of the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy quipped:ย โ€œWhen you move into the countryside they try to get you into the congregation and welcome you to the community. They invite you for a chat, see if you want to confess a few things.โ€ย 

โ€œIf Iโ€™d have gone Iโ€™d still be there now, fucking confessing all my sins!โ€ย he concluded.
