Sharon Osbourne shares her support for Marilyn Manson despite allegations

For the majority of his career, shock musician Marilyn Manson cultivated a contentious reputation, but since 2021, he has continued to be a particularly contentious character, as per theprp. Sharon Osbourne, a well-known member of the heavy metal community, has recently openly defended Manson. At the “Back To The Beginning” all-star tribute on July 5, 2026, Manson posted a video honouring her late husband, heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne. Additionally, he received an invitation to Ozzy‘s private funeral. In response to the numerous accusations made against Manson in recent years, Sharon openly expressed her support for him in the most recent edition of her family’s podcast, “The Osbournes.”

Manson is a great artist. I don’t care what anybody says and now I’ll get all these complaints, ‘He abuses women.’ Well, women abuse men. And you know what the thing that gets me is? Did Marilyn ever try and be light and breezy, and you know a surfer guy? No. You know what you were getting yourself into.

You’re begging to get on somebody’s tour bus. You’re begging to get near them and be photographed. And then you know what? What did you expect? And the thing is, I don’t think that he did what they said. You know what I feel about Marilyn. He’s a friend and always will be. And I don’t believe half of it.

I can tell you one of the people that was suing him — major part of it — we were sat Soho House one night, and she went on the floor under the table and gave him a blowjob. He never asked for it, she just did it.

Sharon responded as follows when asked if she was present in person.

Yeah. And I was with [manager/film producer] Andy Gould. That’s why I’m like, ‘Hey, there’s two sides to every story here. You leave him alone.

Jack Osbourne said:

That’s one way to end a meal.

To which Sharon replied:

Yeah, dessert.

Jack continued:

Wow. At Soho House? …Watch, you’re going to get called in now. Now you’re gonna get called into the all the all the proceedings. That’s f*cking nuts.
