Sharon Osbourne

Story here:

SHARON OSBOURNE has told of how she would have shot her husband OZZY when he tried to strangle her more that a decade ago - had she had a gun at their home.

"(Ozzy) was drinking and he was taking drugs and it got to the point where he got violent with me, and he nearly choked me to death and I called the police on him," she said.

The incident happened at the couple's home in Buckinghamshire in 1989. Ozzy was arrested on charges of threatening to kill his wife, and for a time he was barred from the home or from contacting Sharon, reports Reuters.

Sharon said that following the arrest, Ozzy turned his life around.

"Thank God I didn't have a gun, that's why I'm so against guns or knives or anything like that, because I know if I'd have had one I'd have probably tried to defend myself," she said.

So we now have a talentless wife whining about a past struggle with her talentless and violent husband, and essentially denouncing the Second Amendment to boot.

Great stuff. This entire family should be euthanized, for the betterment of mankind.

When Ozzy isn't drooling all over himself, or shouting expletives, he's attacking a world leader with cheap shots in shitty songs.

Someone needs to put this barely-lucid vegetable down, for his own good. And his wife as well, for the crime of milking a retard for cash and publicity.

I take it from reading this that Ozzfest isn't in your plans in the near future, RJ?

The Osbournes have definitely become publicity whores thanks to the success of their TV show which grew old before the end of the first season. If that show had never gained traction, I seriously doubt we'd have ever seen any of these stories.

Really, is anybody surprised by what personal details come out about the Osbourne family any more? Sharon being screwed by Randy Rhoads once upon a time, Ozzy attacking Sharon in some drug rage, Kelly and Jack in and out of drug treatment, blah blah blah.

there is plenty of talent there: Ozzy was a great singer for a great band, and his early solo is powerful as well; Sharon is one of the great managers and publicists in rock history.

That's correct Eric, but I would think there is at least some privacy that wouldn't be for sale, wouldn't you?

It's brilliant, albeit a bit sad that they have practically no personal life, but perhaps that is worth millions to them.

come on, fellas, who hasn't heard this tale? Although, i found it quite astounding when, prior to The Osbournes Telly Show, Ozzy was talking about the incident on Frank Skinner, and finished by concluding that "He wouldn't change a thing". i kinda understand that, since he wouldn't have learned from these incidents otherwise, but still, seemed kinda odd.
The pissing on the alamo story is a personal fave, when ozzy starting leaking over said monument.
angry passer-by - you damn brits, how would you like it if we came over and pissed on buckingham palace.
ozzy - i couldn't give a shit, mate.

Tabby is the Ozzy house cat, I assume. I guess he's the only one left who's not released a single.

I would expected a name like !$#@$#$@#$#

The only usual way to get in touch with a celebrity is to go through a production or management company.

Again as a general warning: No one here at Blogcritics can put you directly in touch with a celebrity. Anyone who says they can is lying.

#15 — October 13, 2005 @ 23:59PM — RJ [URL]

If you Google "Contact Sharon Osbourne" this page comes up at #3...

I don't know why, but it does...

#16 — October 14, 2005 @ 01:04AM — Eric Berlin [URL]

Thus the whole don't believe everything you read, or that the Internet tells you, or that Google tells you, or something.

What a complete and utter load of bullshit- Sharon picked Ozzy up when he was kicked out of Black Sabbath and got his career back on the road furthermore she did not milk him of his money, she made it through presention and her worlwide record company and Sharon Osbourne Management. And Ozzy is hardly a retard, if you knew what one is you wouldnt say it so get your facts right before you go slagging people off

#20 — May 4, 2006 @ 13:23PM — Charles

I think Sharon Osbourne is an inspiration! At least to me she is, all the other stuff you folks say about the family is your opinion.

But, for me a cancer survior for 2 months now, I feel a connection to sharon and what she went through.

I'd love to send her a note, but I just don't know what steps to take to do so? If anyone knows please post here, and I will check back to see it, since I can't put my email address in this....That sucks....Oh well such is life!

Much thanks to you,
Charles

Sharon Osbourne is incredibly pathetic. She's the type of person that makes me question the existence of God. I do like Ozzy's music and think he is (or was) a great artist. But someone please shoot Sharon!

#29 — December 9, 2007 @ 14:29PM — Joel Tepes

I am a big fan of Sharron Osbourne,
I would also like to contact her if i can.
I'm no crazed up person.
Just bored and lonely and would like to speak to somebody interesting.
And Sharron is an very interesting person and she is really nice.
And if i did contact her i would like to ask her advise on some thing's that are personal to me as i been through a hells life full of abuse.

And i know sharron has been through a kind of abuse before and just would like to get some advise.

Does anyone know how i could get contact with Sharron any how??

#30 — December 16, 2007 @ 22:28PM — Luke W

I have to say Sharon Osbourne is my most favorite person in the World. The shows are hilarious and show what love is. The Osbournes is my favorite television show, there is nothing better than the Osbournes. Its rare in life to meet someone as witty and loving as Sharon Osbourne...
