Post Malone has recalled how he felt meeting Ozzy Osbourne for the first time, saying the moment was “absolutely fucking mind-blowing”.In newly release footage from Malone’s upcoming documentary Post Malone: Runaway, the artist is seen hanging backstage before his show in Los Angeles on November 21, 2019, where he has his first encounter with Osbourne – a longtime idol of his.“Good to see you, how are you?

You look great,” Malone says as he approaches Osbourne, the pair shaking hands. “Are you excited?” Malone asks, with Osbourne replying: “Yeah, yeah, yeah.”Malone then asks: “You ready to party?” to which Osbourne replies with only a chuckle and a grin.As Malone describes the moment in a voiceover: “I was nervous meeting him, not as much performing [with him].

Meeting him is terrifying, ’cause, you know, what the fuck do you say to Ozzy Osbourne, you know? ‘I like your pants’!? You have no idea what the fuck to say to him.”Watch the clip below:With Osbourne surprising fans at the show, appearing onstage seated in a throne, he and Malone performed their collaborative single ‘Take What You Want’.

The live rendition of the track – which featured Osbourne and Travis Scott upon its release in 2019 – was later shared to Osbourne’s official YouTube channel.Later that month, Scott joined the duo onstage at the 2019 American Music Awards, where they performed the song as a trio.
