A limited series of iced tea cans containing traces of iconic musician Ozzy Osbourne’s DNA sold out shortly after going on sale, priced at 395 euros per unit. The initiative, launched by the beverage company Liquid Death under the name Infinite Ozzy, sparked an intense debate on social media about the possibility—currently hypothetical—of cloning the legendary Black Sabbath frontman.
According to the company, only 10 units were produced, each hermetically sealed after being used by Osbourne himself, who drank directly from the cans before sealing them. These contain traces of the singer’s saliva, as well as his original signature, which would guarantee the presence of genetic material.
In an ironic tone, the advertising campaign suggests that, in the future, a version of 80s Ozzy could be recreated “to mow the lawn or entertain at children’s parties”. The ad concludes with a provocative statement: “When the law and technology allow it, you’ll be able to replicate Ozzy and enjoy him for hundreds of years”.
When asked about the topic, Osbourne responded with his characteristic acidic humor: “Clone me, damn it”.
On the other hand, the 76-year-old artist is preparing for his return to the stage on July 5th in Birmingham, during Black Sabbath’s final concert titled Back to the Beginning. After a long period of physiotherapy, fans are hoping to see him perform again with his former bandmates
