Ozzy has had a tremor ever since his twenties, and a number of people have thought this was to do with his drink and drug problems when he was younger. It was also thought to be an onset of Parkinson’s’ disease. However, Ozzy has told MTV that it was a hereditary condition, and he has been having treatment in Boston to see if it can be cured. This treatment leaves the sufferer with a dry mouth, which meant Ozzy had to cancel his European tour. But the good news is he now says he is cured!

"This doctor is my guardian angel. When this guy put this medication in my vein, it was like someone had turned this machine off in me. It was like instant, man! I’m taking one medication now for this tremor. And now I haven’t got the tremor."

Ozzy’s cancelled tour - 17/10/03
Ozzy Osbourne has had to cancel his European Tour so he can receive treatment for the nervous tremors that are ’destroying his life’.

Doctors have ruled out Parkinson’s Disease, but the singer has been undergoing treatment for an involuntary shuddering which has become markedly worse over the last two years. Ozzy said ’I was at the point where it felt as if this problem was practically destroying my life along with my self-esteem’

He went on to say that it was coming under control with medication, but one of the side effects is suffering a dry mouth, which affects his voice. The tour is being back dated for next year. Hope you get better soon, Ozzy.

Ozzy’s musical - 02/10/03
Ozzy Osbourne is currently composing songs for a new Broadway musical, based on the life and death of the infamous Russian Rasputin.

Most people’s knowledge of this Russian monk comes from a Boney M song, where my most pressing memory is of the video where the male singer leaps madly up and down while dressed in a white catsuit.

But of course the life of Rasputin is a dark tale, filled with sexual shenangins and poison, a tale most perfect for the Prince Of Darkness to tackle.

Junior prince of darkness? - June
Brummie’s Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, has agreed to take a DNA test to see if he fathered a groupie’s son.

Sheron Lutz claims she and Ozzy had a roll in the hay after a party back in 1996, which resulted in Sheron’s six-year-old son, who she has imaginatively named ’Juinor’.

Ozzy claims not to remember any romp with gothic dominatrix Sheron, and further to that he had the snip in 1985 after son Jack’s birth, so for him to have fathered another child is a bit far fetched.

Ozzy said ’The most precious thing I have in my life is my marriage and my children and now someone’s trying to destroy the harmony in my family’. From watching The Osbournes on MTV, you could argue that harmony is generally the last thing on their minds, but you can see his point.
