Jack Wagner Reflects on The Masked Singer’s ‘Proper Tribute’ to Ozzy Osbourne With Kelly Osbourne (Exclusive)

The Masked Singer contestant Jack Wagner is grateful he had the opportunity to perform — and be unmasked — during Ozzfest Night.

“I’m just kind of a rocker from the ‘60s and ‘70s. I’m from the Midwest. I love those bands. I loved Ozzy [Osbourne],” Wagner, 66, exclusively shared with Us Weekly after being revealed as the Eggplant on the Wednesday, March 4, episode of Fox’s reality show. “I think it was a proper tribute. This is a groundbreaking band.”

On Wednesday’s episode, Kelly Osbourne returned to The Masked Singer stage as a judge before the show honored her late father with a special tribute to Ozzy’s musical influence.

The legendary Black Sabbath singer died in July 2025 following a battle with Parkinson’s. He was 76.

“Ozzy Osbourne and the music he did, it was just so rock and roll,” Wagner told Us. “I watched a documentary about The Who last night, and I just love that generation of music, so I think it was a proper tribute.”

The special night also reminded Wagner of the times he got to work with Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, on The Bold and the Beautiful in a February 2011 crossover event with The Talk.

“I did a scene on The Bold and the Beautiful with Sharon Osborne,” Wagner recalled. “We had to do a bed scene, and here we are in bed. Julie [Chen] walks in, and she’s jealous, and I have to hop out of bed after kissing Sharon.”
