Ozzy, Sharon Osbourne daughter Aimee escapes LA recording studio fire
LOS ANGELES — Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne‘s daughter Aimee and her producer escaped a Hollywood recording studio fire that killed another person, her mother said.
The fire erupted late Thursday afternoon in a two-story commercial building, and it took 78 firefighters more than 50 minutes to extinguish the flames, Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Erik Scott said in a statement.
Two people reported respiratory symptoms related to smoke exposure and were evaluated at the scene, but both declined to be taken to a hospital, Scott said.
“Sadly, one person was found dead inside, as firefighters searched the structure,” Scott said, adding that no firefighters were injured and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
One of the two survivors was the elder daughter of Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon Osbourne said in an Instagram post.

Aimee Osbourne, 38, and a producer she was working with were “the lucky two that made it out alive,” Sharon Osbourne said, without identifying the producer.
“It is utterly heartbreaking that someone lost their life today in this fire & we are sending our prayers to this person & their family,” Osbourne said, adding “our prayers go out to the family and friends of the person that lost their life to this senseless fire.”
Aimee Osbourne is a singer who releases music under the name ARO, her initials. She did not take part in the Osbourne family’s reality show.
A lot has been happening with the Osbournes in the past few months.
Last month, Ozzy Osbourne tested positive for COVID-19, Sharon Osbourne tearfully announced in a video for her new U.K. show “The Talk.”
“We’ve gone two years without him catching COVID and it’s just Ozzy’s luck he would get it now,” she said.
In happier news, the famous couple’s other daughter, Kelly Osbourne, announced she’s expecting a baby with her boyfriend, musician Sid Wilson.
“I am over the moon to announce that I am going to be a Mumma,” she captioned an Instagram post with pregnancy and heart emojis. “To say that I am happy does not quite cut it. I am ecstatic!”
