Has anyone heard of the progress that Ozzy is making? His new series is due to start soon. I watch Sharon's show each day hoping that when the show is live and not reruns they will give an update.

OZZY OSBOURNE's wife, Sharon, says the smashed rocker will take ``six months'' to recover from injuries resulting from an ATV accident last week. She also told GMTV Ozzy will have a seven-inch steel plate fitted in the back of his neck because of a cracked vertebra. ``He will be back, he's not going anywhere. He'll be ordering everybody around, don't worry,'' she said.

Osbourne 'nearly died' in crash

Singer Ozzy Osbourne has said he twice stopped breathing after being injured in a quad bike crash, it is reported.

Osbourne told the Sunday Mirror he was saved by his bodyguard Sam Ruston who gave him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

"If it wasn't for Sam I probably wouldn't be here. He had to bring me back to life twice," he said.

Osbourne, 55, was in a coma for eight days after breaking eight ribs and puncturing a lung in the grounds of his Buckinghamshire mansion in December.

He said the accident had finally made him "grow up". He admitted he had not been wearing a crash helmet at the time of the accident.

"I'll never go near one of those damn bikes again," he said. "The thing nearly killed me. I am lucky to be here today and not paralysed."

At the end of last year Osbourne was voted rock star of the year in a poll of Virgin Radio listeners.

[QUOTE=John]Some newer news:

Has Sam Ruston, Ozzy's bodyguard, ever been on the Osbournes? If so, I cannot recollect who he is.

I've never heard this before, so I dont really know....but coming from Ozzy's home town I would have thought I'd have picked up on something....however what I will say is that just because a tabloid says this came out in an interview with ozzy himself doesnt always automatically mean this is 100% true. It wouldnt be the first time something said has been blown out of all proportion. But I surpose on the other hand surely if it was untrue there would now be a law suit shortly there after against the particular tabloid.
