Ozzy to play Wembley? - Jan 25 2007
It looks as though rock legend Ozzy Osbourne will play one gig at Wembley this year.

The former Black Sabbath frontman, who is currently working on his new album, will play at the stadium on June 19, reports NME.

It is the only stop in England for the 58-year-old Brit, who became a hit with his family when he allowed cameras into his house for MTV show The Osbournes.

His last album Under Cover was released in 2005.

He is due to release his new album in May, according to NME.

Ozzy left Black Sabbath and went solo in 1979. He has won a number of Grammys during his 35-year career, including one in 1993 for Best Metal Performance for I Don’t Want To Change The World.

His tour will also include stops in Norway, Moscow, Belgium, Spain and Prague. The tour kicks off in May.

Fire at the Buckinghamshire home - July 7, 2020

Fire-fighters bravely battled a fierce early morning blaze at Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne’s ?5 million mansion yesterday (06.07.06). The couple’s 21-year-old daughter Kelly was reportedly the only member of the family at home when the fire - thought to be started by a faulty lamp - ripped through the family’s Buckinghamshire home.

Luckily, Ozzy had recently fitted the house with a state-of-the-art ?2,000 fire alarm, which automatically alerted the emergency services. A Buckinghamshire Fire Service spokesman said: "The blaze was caught in the nick of time. "If we hadn’t been alerted so quickly it could have been a lot worse." Kelly was woken by firemen and escaped unhurt, however, a female employee was treated for smoke inhalation.

The fire follows a series of unlucky incidents at the property. In 2003, Ozzy spent eight days in a coma after a near-fatal quad biking accident in the grounds of the mansion, while the following year the rocker tackled a cat burglar, before the thief escaped with close to ?2 million of jewellery. In March 2005, a fire broke out in the living room of the manor as the family slept. A friend of Ozzy’s said: "He thinks the place is bloody cursed. He is wondering if a plague of locusts will be next."

Sharon claims Ozzy is a sex crazed "rabbit" - Nov 11, 2020

Sharon Osbourne claims husband Ozzy is a sex crazed "rabbit". The stunning ’X Factor’ judge claims the 57-year-old rocker can’t get enough bedroom action and needs to be satisfied every night. She said: "He’s like a f*****g rabbit, honestly. We have sex every night we’re together. Every night! Sometimes I have to tell him I am too tired, but Ozzy’s never tired."

Sharon has confessed she used to think every man had an insatiable sex drive, until she spoke to her sex-starved friends. She is quoted on website Softpedia as saying: "Since I started talking to other couples about sex as I got older, I realized that Ozzy is very highly sexed compared to a lot of them."
