John Michael "Ozzy" Osbourne (born 3 December 1948) is an English singer, songwriter, actor and television personality. He rose to prominence during the 1970s as the lead vocalist of the heavy metal band Black Sabbath, during which he adopted the nickname "The Prince of Darkness".
Osbourne was fired from the band in 1979 due to alcohol and drug problems, but he went on to have a successful solo career, releasing eleven studio albums, the first seven of which were all awarded multi-platinum certifications in the United States. Osbourne has since reunited with Black Sabbath on several occasions.
Ozzy Osbourne is planning “two more shows to say goodbye” before he fully retires from performing live.That’s according to the former Black Sabbath frontman’s wife and manager Sharon, who spoke about Ozzy’s future during her Cut The Crap show at London’s Fortune Theatre on Sunday (January 21).“He won’t tour again but we are planning on doing two more shows to say goodbye as he feels like, ‘I have never said goodbye to my fans and I want to say goodbye’,” she told journalist Jane Moore (via Music News).Sharon continued: “His voice is still absolutely perfect.
And all the time he has been off he still does his singing lessons. Even if you don’t like his music, you can’t not like Ozzy.”She reportedly hinted that the Prince Of Darkness, 75, would stage the pair of farewell concerts at the Villa Park football stadium in his home city of Birmingham.“We will do it in Aston Villa where Ozzy is from,” Sharon told Moore and the audience in attendance.Ozzy announced his retirement from touring last February, calling off his scheduled European and UK tour dates in the process.
Later that month, however, he said that he hoped to return to the stage at some point in the future.He provided a health update last summer after cancelling his planned one-off headline slot at the Power Trip festival in Indio, California.Back in November, Ozzy said he might have to “accept the fact” that a return to the stage may not be possible owing to his ongoing health issues, including Parkinson’s disease and a recovery from multiple surgeries.“I’m taking it one day at a time, and if I can perform again, I will,” he told Rolling Stone UK at the time.“But it’s been like saying farewell to the best relationship of my life.
