Celebs Make Shocking Confessions About Their Lives

During a 1982 show in Des Moines, Ozzy Osbourne made rock history in the most horrifying way possible. When a fan threw a bat onstage, he assumed it was rubber and bit into it mid-performance, expecting shock value and theatrics to carry the moment.

Instead, he instantly realized something was very wrong. His mouth filled with warm liquid, the taste was unbearable, and then the head twitched. Ozzy later wrote about the sheer panic that followed, including emergency rabies shots. It’s a confession that perfectly sums up the reckless chaos of early heavy metal excess.
