Ozzy Osbourne

In his own characteristic—and bloody—way, “Prince of Darkness” Ozzy Osbourne exposes the viciousness of declawing cats.

Christian Serratos

As a star of The Twilight Saga and The Walking Dead, Christian Serratos is used to working with vampires and the nonliving—but she would never wear part of a dead body.

D△WN
