Sharon Osbourne launches foul-mouthed rant at ‘megalomaniac’ U2 for giving away ‘mediocre’ album
Sharon Osbourne has launched a vicious attack on U2, calling their music so “mediocre” that no-one would buy it.
The former X Factor judge – who manages husband Ozzy – said they are “business moguls” and not musicians after giving away their new album for free with Apple. The Dublin rockers agreed a deal with Apple to give Songs of Innocence to more than half a billion people for free through iTunes.But Sharon – who called the band, as well as Apple “a bunch of megalomaniacs” – said: “U2 you are business moguls not musicians anymore.
“No wonder you have to give your mediocre music away for free cause no one wants to buy it. Guys nothing is for free, how much you making?”Furious Sharon added that they are now “just a bunch of middle age political groupies” – in a dig at Bono’s charitable work. She added: “Whose political ass are we going to pull you out of today? Or are you front row at another tragic fashion show?” In a foul mouthed Twitter rant, Sharon ended by telling the band they should “f**k off”.
