Ozzy Osbourne will receive another all-star tribute during this Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards, with Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, Extreme’s Nuno Bettencourt, and punk star Yungblud honoring the recently departed metal legend.

The 2025 VMAs will air live from New York’s UBS Arena on Sunday at 8 p.m. EST on the CBS Television Network, simulcast on MTV and streaming on Paramount+ in the United States.

Tyler, who previously suffered a larynx injury that forced Aerosmith to cancel their farewell tour, made his return to the big stage to perform “Walk This Way,” “Train Kept A-Rollin’,” and a fiery cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Walk This Way.”

Yungblud brought the house down with a powerful rendition of Black Sabbath’s “Changes,” and Bettencourt accompanied a number of supergroups that played various Ozzy and Black Sabbath covers.
