Jack Osbourne was one of many people who mocked ABC News reporter David Muir for clipping his protective fire coat while reporting on the devastating wildfires in Southern California.
Known as rocker Ozzy Osbourne’s son and a reality TV star in his own right, Osbourne shared a clip of Muir reporting from the frontlines of the wildfires which started on Tuesday and have been deemed the worst in Los Angeles history.
At least five people have died and more than 130,000 people evacuated from their homes as multiple fires ravaged areas such as the Pacific Palisades, Hollywood Hills, Studio City and Pasadena.

Osbourne took to X, formerly Twitter, to share a clip of a camera filming a TV and showing ABC’s coverage of the fire.
He noticed Muir had placed clothespins down the spine of his coat, which was revealed when he turned to his side to point out fire damage nearby.
“Nice Jacket Bro. Glad you look nice and svelte with those clothes line pegs, while our city burns to the ground,” Osbourne captioned the post and tagged Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
Newsweek contacted Osbourne and ABC News by email for comment.
Fashion brands or people appearing on camera often use the technique of applying pegs to the back of clothes to make them more fitted to the body, offering a more flattering look to the person’s figure.
Other people shared Osbourne’s video or reacted in the comments section of his original post.
“David Muir appears to be using clothespins to keep his jacket fitted while reporting on the devastating LA fires,” wrote Jon Levine.
“That made me laugh out loud. I’m watching, wondering how he had time to get that tailored when, woah – clothes clip! LOL,” replied @pokerdad2000 to Osbourne’s post.
“Impressed you noticed. I missed it😍🇺🇸🇺🇸” commented @barbiedsinger.
Many celebrities have been evacuated from their homes and others have had their homes completely destroyed by fires.
Actors Mandy Moore and Cary Elwes, and Hollywood legend Billy Crystal were among those who revealed their houses were no longer standing.
Socialite Paris Hilton also expressed her heartbreak over losing her Malibu house, but said her advocacy group, 11:11 Media Impact, was reaching out to non-profit organizations to see what help they needed.
“Sitting with my family, watching the news, and seeing our home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV is something no one should ever have to experience,’ wrote the reality TV star, 43, on X, formerly Twitter, alongside a clip from news station KABC showing her destroyed home.
