Kelly Duets With Ozzy – Booed Off Stage In The UK

Kelly Osbourne has once again faced a hostile
crowd that appeared to get the best of her. This incident took place on
June 21st at the Millennium Dome in London.
Kelly was performing her song “Shut Up!”
and the crowd seemed to agree with the sentiment and pelted her with plastic
bottles. The irony of course, is her legendary father is known for throwing
water from the stage at the audience, instead of having water bottles throw
at him.
Kelly responded by yelling at the audience,
"F*** off! OK, you might f***ing well hate me but I'm here for another
half an hour."
The crowd didn’t let up and continued to
throw things at her, ten minutes later she stormed off the stage with one
departing shot at the audience, "F*** you and your mothers. " She also
reportedly threw drum sticks at the audience at that point.
Maybe these audiences are trying to tell
Kelly something? That something isn’t lost on her father, Ozzy Osbourne,
who appears to be the only one in the Osbourne clan with a sense of reality
when it comes to Kelly’s “singing career”. When asked about upcoming
UK dates where Kelly will open for him, Ozzy said, "I don't think her music
and my music are anything like each other," he admitted but then his paternal
instinct kicked in and he added, "but if anyone throws one f***ing thing
at my daughter, I'm on that stage with a baseball bat."
Those comments came from Ozzy when he disclosed
that he had teamed up with daughter Kelly for a duet. It turns out that
Ozzy has recently recorded the Black Sabbath classic “Changes” as a duet
with Kelly, to be released on his next album.
Ozzy appears to have kept his sense of
humor over the circus that The Osbournes has made of his life, career and
reputation. After disclosing details about the duet he joked, "The only
thing left is 'The Osbournes on Ice.”
Ozzy will still go down as a Godfather
of Heavy Metal but he may also go into the rock n’ roll history books as
an example of what can go wrong when you have a family member for a manager
who is determined to make your daughter a pop star, even after the public
had rejected the idea.
This isn’t the first time Kelly has been
met by a hostile crowd with jeers instead of cheers but it appears that
the Osbourne Company is determined to make sure this isn’t the last time
either.
