Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Zakk Wylde has opened up about Ozzy’s health, Game of Thrones and anal bleaching in a recent interview with SiriusXM. 

During the conversation, Wylde admitted that he has “never seen one episode of Game of Thrones.” The interviewer, who was clearly as shocked as we are added, ” but you could have been on the show, you could have been on the Night’s Watch.” To which Wylde responded with “maybe they could have me, I don’t know. – cleaning toilets?.”

“Moping up the floors on the set, something like that.”

Wylde offered a positive update on Ozzy Osbourne, who has recently experienced a myriad of health issues. Back in February, Osbourne was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection which developed into pneumonia. He was unfortunately forced to cancel his appearance at Download Festival Australia, and the European leg of his No More Tours II

Then in March, Ozzy suffered a fall in his home, which resulted in the cancellation of all his scheduled performances in 2019. Thankfully, it’s all looking up for Ozzy.

“Boss is doing well,” Wylde shared. “We saw him in a hospital after he was banged up again. So I went in and he says, ‘Zakk… Zakky, listen to me.’ And I said, ‘What’s up boss?'”

“He goes ‘Make sure they don’t use Elmer’s glue on me this time. Make sure that it’s a stronger adhesive, stronger bonding glue. Maybe Krazy Glue or Gorilla Glue. And make sure you wrap it in duct tape, so this way the glue will stick this time so we can get out and start rolling in 2020.'”

We’re not quite fluent in the language of Ozzy Osbourne, but we’re taking this as a good sign.

Wylde was also asked about the future has in store for his band, Black Label Society. The answer? anal bleaching.

“Aside from the anal bleaching and the shaving of the legs… We do a little hot yoga before we get up there on stage. You don’t want to pull a fallopian tube or anything like that. So it’s always health first.”
