Ozzy Osbourne is known for many things with one of them being the Prince of Darkness. However, based on all the crazy behavior he’s displayed throughout his career (both Black Sabbath and solo eras), we’re not sure if he’s really one to turn to for solid advice. Rolling Stone seems to think differently.
Apparently, they’ve recruited Osbourne to be the new “Dear Abby” in regards to health and many other issues related to the topic. (Drugs, sex, family… I guess it’s all considered “health.”) Now you can personally write “Dear Ozzy” with a higher chance of him actually responding to you! The only thing is his advice will be made public along with your questions. This isn’t just any regular fan mail response. It’s the real deal. Kind of.

Although Ozzy Osbourne recently told everyone he regrets putting his family in the spotlight during the brief MTV show, The Osbournes, he’s somehow dipped himself back into to reality TV. Combining the awful foul-mouthed things Mel Gibson spouted toward his ex-girlfriend in the shocking phone recordings, Ozzy simultaneously takes it up a notch and takes the mood down a bit by poking fun at Jersey Shore‘s very own Snooki.
In the spoof video below, he is seen wearing Guido-like hair and an appropriately bedazzled Ed Hardy t-shirt. It looks like he is super imposed into the scene and with all the editing his team has done, it all flows together very nicely in a hilarious manner. Who knew Ozzy and Snooki had such a complicated relationship? Check the video out below!
Walking corpse Ozzy Osbourne recently spoke out about his three-year tenure on MTV’s The Osbournes, and the effect it had on his family, NME reports. Osbourne laments that the reality television program and the subsequent fame that hit his family was not healthy for the Ozz’s brood (and coming from a guy who once tried to choke his wife to death, that’s saying something).
The long-running doom-rock slapfight between down-tuned, guitar-slinging badass Tony Iommi and Ozzy Osbourne, former Prince of Darkness/ current shuffling, synapse-collapsed reminder that even the coolest rock stars can be transformed into a toothless commodity, has finally ended according to Entertainment Weekly. The two Black Sabbath bandmates have been battling since May of 2009, when Osbourne sued Iommi, claiming that the Sabbath guitarist had named himself the sole owner of the band’s name and brand.
Ozzy Osbourne is as legendary as those John Lennon glasses he wears daily. The man has been making music since the seventies, first with Black Sabbath, then alone with notable guitar players, and every time he put out a record (whether it was with the Sabbath or solo), Ozzy managed to make it a great record. His latest Scream is no different. The Godfather of Heavy Metal proves that it doesn’t matter how old you are; real talent lasts a lifetime.
Just heard an interesting piece of news, if you were debating on whether or not to buy an OZZFest ticket know that if you buy a ticket before June 18th it comes with a full free download of Ozzy Osbourne’s upcoming album “Scream”! I hope someone told Ozzy? I for one have trouble believing that Ozzy is still A. performing and b. recording something original, BUT he’s still out there and still rocking it. Might want to catch him while you still can!
You can check out the first single of the album “Let Me Hear You Scream” and find out more about the album below…
Comedy Star Jack Black is no stranger to cross pollinating the genres of comedy and heavy metal music. Whether it’s in his band Tenacious D, or his latest blockbuster movie. The most obvious example being 2006′s Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny, where we discover Black’s love for heavy metal and his worship of former Black Sabbath singer Ronnie James Dio.
Black is continuing this trend by appearing in the video game Brutal Legend a comedic fantasy homage to the genre.
That’s the intro for the upcoming Beatles: Rock Band game, by Passion Pictures revealed at the E3 Microsoft press conference. The animated music video looks like it has drawn influence from several different styles. I see some of Terry Gilliam’s Monty Python referenced, and Passion Pictures has been responsible for much of the visuals of the animated rock band Gorillaz.
Another trailer, for the Brutal Legend game featuring Jack Black, was released at E3, and it showed the four rock gods that will appear throughout the game. Guess who they are:
