Jack Osbourne’s little girl prefers cheering for her grandfather from afar.

On the latest episode of The Osbournes Podcast, rocker Ozzy Osbourne jokingly chides at his son to "bring the grandkids to come see me!"

"I f---ing will ... she's scared of you IRL," he revealed, referring to youngest daughter Maple, 15 months, whom he shares with wife Aree Gearhart.

Turning to sister Kelly Osbourne, Jack, 37, then updated her on Maple's recent viral moment.

“You haven’t seen the new video, where she’s pointing,” he said. “We put on ‘Crazy Train’, like an actual performance. She does the ‘I, I, I,' but she’s pointing at the TV going ‘Papa, Papa, Papa, Papa, Papa’, just on repeat like a broken record."

The proud dad — who also shares daughters Pearl ClementineAndy Rose, and Minnie Theodora with ex-wife Lisa Stelly — continued, “[But] in real life when she sees him and she’s like, ‘Oh f---, there he is’.”

In the adorable video shared by the rocker’s son on Instagram last week, Maple was bouncing with excitement as she watched her grandfather perform with his band on TV. 

She repeatedly called his name, “Papa,” over and over while pointing at the TV any time Ozzy appeared on screen. Jack sat on a couch behind his daughter and looked on lovingly as his father performed and Maple made the show her own private party.

“Maple thinks she’s getting a private performance from Papa,” Jack captioned the sweet video.

The rocker and Sharon, who have been married for over 40 years, are grandparents of five. From Ozzy’s previous marriage to Riley, he is also grandfather to his son Louis' kids, Elijah and Maia, as well as his daughter Jessica's three kids, Isabelle, Harry and Kitty. 

Speaking candidly about his ever-growing family on Sirius XM last year, Ozzy said, "I also have 11 dogs and they all sleep on my bed.”

He added, "It's f---ing crazy in my house."
