Singer OZZY OSBOURNE fears he will only be remembered for his stunts on stage when he dies.

The Black Sabbath frontman is one of rock music’s most enduring figures and prays he’s remembered for his musical achievements.

He tells London’s Time Out magazine, “I hope when I die that it doesn’t say on my gravestone: ‘The man who bit the head off a f**king parrot’.

“I wanna be buried with Sharon. She’s gotta have her hands out the coffin, though, or she’ll be going through my pockets when we’re dead!”

KELLY OSBOURNE and AMY WINEHOUSE have crowned themselves rulers of a new hell raising crew – Team Evil.

She says, “You should watch out. We call ourselves Team Evil. We like to go around causing trouble.”

Osbourne Slams ‘Gutless’ Cowell

SHARON OSBOURNE has dubbed SIMON COWELL a “coward” for sacking LOUIS WALSH from British talent show THE X FACTOR, and then blaming the decision on show producers.

Walsh sat on the judging panel with Osbourne and Cowell – whose company makes the show – until he and host KATE THORNTON were axed earlier this month.

Cowell claims he fought to save their jobs, but that producers overruled him.

But Osbourne insists Cowell is responsible – and should have owned up to Walsh and Thornton.

She says, “After knowing Louis for over 20 years, Simon should have had the guts to tell him to his face that he was going to get fired.

“I was completely shocked. It was a harsh and unfair thing to do. The very least he could have done is to have told Louis and Kate rather than pretend it was all down to the producers.”

Osbourne Slams ‘Wimpy’ British Boys

KELLY OSBOURNE’s love life is suffering while she’s living in London because she insists there are no decent men to date.

The 22-year-old last boyfriend was the FIELDS’ bassist MATTY DERHAM, who she dated for five months before their split in January this year – and has yet to find a suitable replacement.

She tells People magazine, “I would like to find somebody, but there’s a real lack of men in London. British boys can be a bit wimpy and a bit girly.

“I don’t want a guy who spends more time on his hair than I do.”

Osbourne would like to find a serious new man because she’s tired of the endless speculation about her love life in the UK media.

She explains, “There are always stupid rumours about guys I’m dating.

“Last week I heard I was getting married to one of the ARCTIC MONKEYS, which is crazy; they’re like 16 and I’ve never met them.”

JACK OSBOURNE’s new reality series is officially a flop – it has been cancelled.

THE OSBOURNES star’s new show ARMED & FAMOUS tried and failed to compete with US TV phenomenon AMERICAN IDOL, prompting network bosses at CBS to pull it from their schedule, effective immediately.

In the show, cameras followed Osbourne, LATOYA JACKSON and ERIK ESTRADA as they attempted to become reserve police officers in Muncie, Indiana.

The reality series premiered to solid numbers earlier this month but viewers turned off when American Idol started its new season two weeks ago.

Osbourne: ‘Being Ozzy’s Daughter Ruined My Pop Career’

KELLY OSBOURNE is still bitter her pop career failed to take off, blaming her lack of chart success on being the daughter of wildman rocker OZZY OSBOURNE.

The 22-year-old is convinced her 2005 album SLEEPING IN THE NOTHING didn’t get the attention it deserved because people dismissed it as a vanity project by a spoiled rock heiress.

She reveals, “I’d love to do another album – music is my whole family’s passion. It’s a lot of work and I get disappointed though.

“It’s harder for me because people always think, ‘Oh, she’s Ozzy Osbourne’s daughter – everything just gets handed to her.’ To get the respect of one person I’ve got to work twice as hard.

“I’m really proud of my second album, I still think it’s great. People didn’t give it a chance. If it was released by someone else I think people would have loved it.”

The youngest child of Ozzy Osbourne has checked back into rehab, according to Us Weekly. Kelly Osbourne, 20, checked herself into Las Encinas, a celebrity welcoming drug treatment center located in Pasadena, California.

This is not Kelly’s first stay in a rehab center. In April of 2004, the singer-actress had a stretch at a center called Promises, which is located in Malibu. The reason for her stay at Promises was to battle an addiction to painkillers.

Las Encinas is already familiar with the Osbourne family, as Kelly’s brother Jack had earlier checked in to assist him in dealing with his addictions to alcohol, marijuana and OxyContin in 2003.

Addiction in the Osbourne family is not uncommon, as father Ozzy, has suffered from a numerous of them.
