Slow news day, huh? Ozzy has been looking better and better the last couple of years, though.

i like ozzy as an artist, but in person, he seems like a dumbass...

LOL his success was because of his personality, he was fired because of his performance on stage, forgetting the lyrics, making bad entries, singing really out of tune, etc Then he started his own career as a solo artist and was much more successful than Sabbath with Dio or Gillan

I saw him live on Monday - Holly week 1982 some days after his guitarist Randy Rhoads passed away, the show was crazy but he does not sing, he shouts, forgets the lyrics (or more diplomatically saying… he changes the lyrics on stage) and enters out of time… you can’t count how many times he says “fucking crazy” in one show… so let’s go crazy!

my parents met ozzy and sharon on a flight back to toronto a few weeks ago in first class, they sat right behind them
maybe if i get the pictures my mom took ill upload them haha

Well, it's really happening, ya'll! Check this out:



Scientists Mapping Ozzy Osbourne's DNA
12:20 PM - June 16, 2010 - By Kevin Parrish - Source : Tom's Guide US



A Cambridge, Massachusetts firm plans to map Ozzy Osbourne's genetic code to find out what's kept him alive after all the years of drugs, alcohol, and bat guts. Knome, which will map the former Black Sabbath frontman's genome using a sample of his blood, said that he's only one of a few people in the world that has the privilege of genetic analysis.

As Knome points out, the 61-year-old rocker has lived a life that should have killed off any ordinary human long ago. The £27,000 test will produce results in about three months--Knome hopes that the findings will reveal how drugs are absorbed in the body, and how Ozzy, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood, and even Iggy Pop can withstand more substance abuse than their ecstatic fans.

Ozzy himself admits that he's not sure how he's still alive, and even deemed himself as a "medical miracle" after a 40-year "bender." At one point in his life, Ozzy was drinking four bottles of cognac a day, "blacking out, coming to again, and carrying on," he said. Ozzy's apparent taste for live, flying and scavenging rodents isn't exactly a big secret either--he even broke his neck in a quad bike accident back in 2003. If that's not enough, Ozzy suffers from a genetic disorder similar to Parkinson's disease.

So is it any surprise that boffins want to check out his DNA? "Sequencing and analyzing individuals with extreme medical histories provides the greatest potential scientific value," said Nathan Pearson, director of research at Knome.
