Ozzy regrets The Osbournes
Ozzy Osbourne says that he regrets the impact The Osbournes TV show had on his family – and said he would not repeat the experience, reports Nme.com.
While acknowledging the MTV reality show revitalised his global fame, he admitted to TheQuietus.com that it did have an adverse effect on his loved ones.
"You go to bed one day and you wake up [the next day] and the world's completely different. Everywhere there's f-cking cameras, you get attacked by the f-cking things," he said of the show which ran from 2002 until 2005.
"The kids couldn't handle it, my wife couldn't handle it: she had colon cancer," he explained. "On the one hand it was phenomenal, on the other hand I had to watch my family [suffer]. But we invented a new form of television. We started the ball rolling for all these f-cking new shows now. Would we do it again? I dunno. I don't think so."
Osbourne also spoke about the 2005 feud that erupted on Ozzfest between Iron Maiden and his wife Sharon, which saw her pelt the band with eggs in San Bernardino.
"You know what? Unbeknown to me, every night he [Iron Maiden singer Bruce Dickinson] was going onstage slagging me off. And that wasn't fair," said Osbourne.
"I'd never said a f-ckin' bad thing to him. The bass player [Steve Harris] came round at the last gig and said, 'I'm sorry about Bruce' and I'm like, 'What the f-ck are you talking about?'… Sharon got pissed off… it was nothing to do with me. I suppose Sharon got pissed off. I'll back my wife up to the hilt, but I didn't know what was going down."
He added he didn't blame the band, but suggested that Dickinson "needs a f-cking psychiatrist if he does that, he's f-cking nuts. It's an irresponsible f-cking thing to do".
In other news, Ozzy Osbourne has psychic abilities.
The rocker insists he predicted Princess Diana's death weeks before her tragic crash in France.
The Black Sabbath rocker claims he awoke from a restless night's sleep weeks before the British royal's untimely demise following a road traffic accident in Paris in 1997, and he instantly told an assistant of his macabre prediction.
He tells Britain's Sunday Times Magazine, "I remember when Princess Diana was still alive, I woke up one morning and said to my assistant, 'You know what? Something very bad's gonna happen to her.'
"And sure enough, days or weeks later, the tragedy in Paris happened.
"But the fact is, if someone's living their life at 300 miles per hour, you don't have to be a clairvoyant to see what's coming."
