Ozzy Osbourne has admitted he used to pee his pants on stage.
While it’s not totally surprising given the veteran rocker’s on stage antics, such as biting the head off a bat, it’s still pretty gross (when you gotta go, you gotta go - we guess!).
However, Ozzy’s reasoning for doing this was particularly bizarre.

The Black Sabbath lead singer made the rather strange admission during Tuesday's (17 October) episode of The Osbournes Podcast.
Ironically though, the podcast started with a much more highbrow conversation as the 74-year-old chatted with his wife Sharon, daughter Kelly and son Jack.
Rather than discussing all things rock 'n' roll, the group were talking about a pair of Queen Victoria’s underwear that had once sold at auction.
It was then that the family matriarch, Sharon, revealed that she’d also bought a pair of shoes that once belonged to Marilyn Monroe.
Jack was clearly not impressed and thought that the purchase from Hollywood’s Golden Age was weird.
Arguing her case, Sharon said: “Shoes, a handbag, a dress is different than somebody’s bloody knickers that they farted in and s**t in."
To which, Jack replied: "Who’s s**tting in their underwear?"
Eager to jump in on the conversation, Ozzy then argued that old age probably hadn’t been all that kind to the monarch, and that she was ‘probably incontinent’.
He joked: “She was an old girl, she was probably incontinent. She owned continents, but she was incontinent.”
It was then that he made the rather grim admission of his own.
Joking that historical figures would have had to ‘relieve’ themselves discreetly during long parades, the rocker said that he’d had to do similar on stage.
“When I was on stage, I used to go, 'Oh, f**k it,' and just p**s, 'cause I was wet anyway from throwing water around," Ozzy admitted.
Rather than having a damp patch for the whole world to see, the ‘Crazy Train’ singer often got away with peeing his pants as he would throw buckets of water at the crowds.
He even used to spray fans with water guns as part of his band's set.
It seems the TV personalities are back with a bang after a five-year hiatus on their podcast, with the second season launching in September.
We wonder if Ozzy will make any more revelations about his rock 'n' roll past.
