Sharon Osbourne breaks silence on rumours Ozzy will tour again as she makes TalkTV comeback
SHARON Osbourne has broken her silence on rumours that Ozzy will tour again.
The TV personality made her highly-anticipated return to TalkTV as she appeared on the flagship debate programme, The Talk.
Sharon, 70, was welcomed back to the network in style as the panel inquired about the news surrounding her husband, Ozzy Osbourne, 74.
However, The former X Factor judge broke her silence on the matter, admitting that Ozzy might have unfinished business on stage.
She said: “Yeah, that doesn’t mean he’s not going to be doing any shows.
“If there is a festival here and there that he wants to do, he will do that.
“But it’s just long tours he won’t do anymore.”
But when Sharon was asked about rumours of a potential tour with a Las Vegas residency, she jokingly played coy by looking the other way.
Meanwhile, the former music mogul also gushed about how wonderful it felt to be back in the UK and back in her role as a presenter on TV.
When asked by Dr David Bull whether she was happy to be home, Mrs O exclaimed: “Always!
“When I go back to America, I always feel like I’m on holiday. I never have felt, well, this is my home. I just feel like holiday time.”
This comes after The Sun revealed that Ozzy wants to come out of retirement just weeks after announcing it, even if he has to perform in a chair.
The rocker, who has Parkinson’s disease, announced his retirement from touring and cancelled his No More Tours 2 run last month saying he was “not physically capable”.
But pals say Ozzy is already “so upset and annoyed” at being unable to play live, he wants to get back out even if it means being in a chair.
The Brummie singer, 74, apparently has his sights set on a short run in Las Vegas or at a Los Angeles venue and is taking advice from his friend Guns’N’Roses singer Axl Rose, who performed on tour with a damaged foot on a throne, and inspiration from Phil Collins, who played Genesis’s last tour sat down on a chair last year.
The friend said: “Ozzy is refusing to give up on his hope of getting on stage despite his statement last month.
“He has declared: ‘I am gonna f***ing get back on stage’.
“He still has issues with his balance and cannot stand unaided for long periods of time on his legs.
“It frustrates him that doing a full 90 minute show, filled with his famous stage stomping and crowd interactive moves, is off the table.
“But he is considering doing gigs in a throne, like what Axl did in 2016 with Guns’N’Roses. He was really impressed by that move. And he feels Phil showed that audiences do resonate with you.”
