Someone asked me if I was famous last night and I said ‘no I’m just related to some famous people.’ And they said ‘Well you look exactly like Ozzy Osbourne.’ And I believe they meant that as the highest compliment. So I chose to take it as such. (In the Pool day 2).

who are the famous people he's related to?
Richie Blackmore? Ronnie James Dio? 'cause That'd Be COOL!!! Ronnie James Dio is quite the singer
He knows who he is, as we say in the South.
I guess it depends on what you mean by Famous People
Allow me to introduce myself
My name ain't John this is somebody else's greasy shirt my name's Kurt
This is the town that I grew up in
Never seen L.A. the closest I've been to Hollywood is Dollywood
But when you get back to Beverly Hills you can tell all your buddies
That you met one of the most famous people in the country
Cause I caught the record small mouth out on Kentucky lake
And I threw the winning touchdown pass the night that we won state
And I'm still signin' autographs after all these years
You're talkin' to one of the most famous people in the country
Brad Paisley Famous People

I think his dad knew Pete Best.
Sean is pretty witty on Twitter. He has his own mind, and can't understand the people who don't.
Better than being told you look like Keith Richards.
I really liked Julian Lennon's debut album, Valotte. Know virtually nothing about this Sean chap, although I've been amused by some his tweets over the years.
He seems like a nice dude. But how do you mistake him for Ozzy?
The list of celebrities I’ve been told I resemble don’t really resemble each other. Most don’t resemble me, either. This Osborne guy’s not special…
Uh, oh. From his wiki...
In October 1984, when Steve Jobs was visiting Manhattan, he attended a party that Ono was throwing for Lennon and Jobs gave him one of the first Macintosh computers as his birthday present.That same year, he sang "It's Alright" on the Ono tribute album Every Man Has a Woman for his mother.
Can you even say that anymore?
I don't follow Sean Ono Lennon regularly. But every time a blogger calls him back to my attention, he has written something thought-provoking and good-natured. Wish there were more like him.
Modesty is super charming.

You're so young you think John Lennon and Ozzy Osbourne are the same person?
He looks like Johnny Depp to me.

If you age John Lennon, like in that Yesterday movie, you do kind of get Ozzy Osbourne.
He seems to have grown up far more normal than one might have expected.
Sean should have said “My famous half-brother had some top 10 hits in the mid-1980’s…” and then walked away.
I have been shaving my head for quite a few years since I started losing my hair.
A few years ago my wife and I were at a Special Olympics bocci competition our son was competing in when one of his team mates came up to me and she said you look just like a super hero. I was just about to say thank you when she said Lex Luther. My wife and I laughed so hard. It still cracks us up.
For being born to wealth and privilege, from what I've read he seems to be a normal guy.
Good for him...
The guy who sells me Christmas trees has a Sean Lennon story, and I get him to talk about it again every year, Sean comes out looking like a nice decent guy dealing with his 'fame' and how people interact with him. I would tell it, but it's not my story. My story is the Christmas tree guy, but it requires my impression of a Canadian accent, but this story checks out, now, somewhat.
My immediate reaction was, "you're famous, dude, I remember your song!
And then I discovered that I did not, in fact, remember his song, it was Julian's song.
Modesty is super charming.
Definitely. But I think he's right, too. He's Almost Famous. One of those people who's really close to fame, but not actually famous on his own.
He looks just like Ozzy Osborne? DNA test is in order.
