OZZY’S GOLDEN MOMENT

-

PRINCE of Darkness Ozzy Osbourne will finally step into the light as he is crowned the Golden God at this year’s Metal Hammer Awards. The Black Sabbath frontman will be given the lifetime achievemen­t gong next month at London’s O2 Arena, having sold more than 100 million albums and toured the world for almost 50 years.

“What an immense honour it is to be getting a second Golden God Award after Sabbath picked one up last year,” says the Brummie rocker, 69, midway through his – supposedly – final world tour No More Tours 2.

He’ll headline the Download festival in Donington Park, Leicesters­hire on June 10.

MAGICIAN David Copperfiel­d will not have to pay damages to a British man injured during one of his shows after a ruling from a US court.

The Nevada jury said Copperfiel­d was “negligent but not financiall­y responsibl­e” having ruled that Gavin

Cox caused his own injuries during a 2013 show in Las Vegas. Cox claimed he’d suffered brain and other injuries after falling.

The trick, “Lucky#13”, involves making 13 audience members disappear on stage. Last month Copperfiel­d, 61, was forced to reveal details of how the illusion works in court.
