Ozzy Osbourne has issued an apology to Britney Spears.

Spears, 42, recently told the Osbourne family to "kindly f--- off" after Ozzy expressed feeling "fed up" with her online dance videos. In response, the 72-year-old Black Sabbath rocker apologized during the July 29 episode of The Osbournes podcast.

"I’m so sorry for making that comment," said Ozzy. "However, it would be better if you didn’t do the same f---ing dance every day. Change a few movements."

His daughter, Kelly, then added her input: "Alright — I was gonna say, Britney, never stop dancing. I love your dancing. It makes you so happy, and I’m sorry if we offended you."

"Listen, I like Britney a lot," added Ozzy's wife, Sharon.

"I love Britney Spears," said Ozzy, "but it's the same dance every day."

"No, sometimes she has knives," quipped Kelly, 39.

"I really do apologize," added Ozzy. "I love you, and I think you're beautiful."

During the podcast's July 16 episode, the "Crazy Train" musician expressed that he was "fed up of seeing poor old Britney Spears on YouTube." Sharon, 71, then clarified that he was referring to her "dancing" videos.

"Every f---ing day... It’s sad, very, very sad," added Ozzy, while Kelly said: "I know. I feel so sorry for her."

Spears then reacted with an Instagram post, where she also addressed Kate Beckinsale's recent comments responding to critics who don't believe she's, "doing enough age-appropriate things."

"I'm gonna do a photoshoot with Kate and tell the Osbourne family who is the most boring family known to mankind to kindly f--- off !!!" wrote the "Lucky" pop star at the time.

Spears also called out anyone who's said she and Beckinsale post "appropriate content," adding that the world has some "incredible cruel people" and advising individuals "to be extremely careful who you allow in your circle and your heart."
