The former X Factor judge wrote a long statement on her social media account against the group. She starts her statement by saying:
"Coachella 2025 will be remembered as a festival that compromised its moral and spiritual integrity. Goldenvoice, the festival organizer, facilitated this by allowing artists to use the Coachella stage as a platform for political expression."
Also found in her statement was "While I respect their right to express their opinions, such discussions would have been more appropriate at their own concert, not at a festival. Kneecap, an Irish rap group, took their performance to a different level by incorporating aggressive political statements. Their actions included projections of anti-Israel messages and hate speech, and this band openly support terrorist organizations."
When asked for a response by BBC Northern Ireland, the band said that "Statements aren’t aggressive, murdering 20,000 children is though."
Osbourne ends the social media by saying:
"I urge you to join me in advocating for the revocation of Kneecap’s work visa."
