Ozzy Osbourne is racking up some brownie points for his signature scream.

The Grammy-winning rocker headed to Dodger Stadium Friday to set the Guiness World Record for the loudest and longest scream with thousands of Dodger fans…but it wasn't just to promote his upcoming album, aptly titled Scream.

The ear-piercing "Scream for a Cure" stint was actually part of the third annual ThinkCure! Weekend at Dodger Stadium, which raises money for cancer research. Last year, the event raised more than $50,000. 

Ozzy wasn't the only Osbourne to get in on the charitable action, though. Sharon Osbourne, a cancer survivor, also pitched in to support the cause by recording a promotional message for the event. 

Fans who missed the record-setting stunt can still participate via donation by texting "Cure" to 50555 to make a $10 donation, logging on to www.thinkcure.org or calling (866) 554-CURE.
