Ozzy: I’m dying for UK return

-

ROCK legend Ozzy Osbourne says he’s desperate to move back to England as he’s sick of the American media.

The 69-year-old Black Sabbath singer ( above) currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife Sharon, 65.

He said: “I’d like to move back to England one day. The weather is great here, but it’s so easy to fall into the LA bullshit.

“All the newspapers say I’m ill. F**k off! I’m on the front of the National Enquirer: ‘Ozzy is dying, his last words were ‘Eugh’.”

Despite his sunshine lifestyle in the States, Ozzy has visited his hometown of Aston, Birmingham, a couple of times.

He added: “I don’t get to go back very often, but I went back for a BBC show. There’s a guy living in the house I grew up in.

“They charge people £200 to sleep in the bedroom I had as a kid.”

Ozzy is set to return to the stage and is lined up as one of the main acts at Download Festival on June 10. A WHOLE orange will float on water, but a peeled orange will sink. POP babe Tulisa is planning a HUGE comeback, after years of hiding from the spotlight. Just five years ago she rose to fame with her band N-Dubz, was crowned the ‘World’s Sexiest Woman’ and even replaced national treasure Cheryl Tweedy as a judge on However, after a string of controvers­ies, including being arrested and cleared of supplying Class A drugs, her stock fell. Despite her problems, Tulisa, 29, is now reportedly planning her comeback and a source said: “Tulisa’s public scandals turned her life upside down.

When her family began to question her bogus claims, Sandover admitted she made it all up and that the pair had in fact had consensual sex.

Yesterday she admitted a charge of wasting police time when she appeared at Salisbury Magistrate­s’ Court, Wilts.

Prosecutor Ryan Senevirati­ne said: “Miss Sandover is extremely lucky that she didn’t get charged with perverting the course of justice.”

He said it was only due to her age and the fact she has no previous conviction­s, adding: “Her ex-boyfriend has said his confidence in approachin­g girls has been completely ruined.

“She had many times to say the allegation­s were lies, but she didn’t.”

Her lawyer, Moses Tawo, said Sandover was “too scared to admit she had been lying”.

He added: “The only person she told the story to was her friend.

“She never meant for it to be taken to the police and couldn’t tell me why she had told lies.

“She has faced some health issues. When the only relationsh­ip she had with anyone ended, she panicked, which she now shows remorse for.”

Sandover was bailed and will be sentenced on June 8. “She wanted to disappear from the spotlight, but it’s been a few years and she’s now finally ready to attempt a comeback. “She’s matured, calmed down her private life, and got rid of the drama. She’s ready for her career to take off again and she wants to be back in the charts and on TV. “She’s going to shake off her old image and reinvent herself as classier and more pared-back. She’s got a trusted group of advisors, so there’ll be no drama.” It’s rumoured her pal Simon Cowell, 58, is also supporting her return and has everything crossed she’ll make a real success of it. CARTOON characters such as Frosties’ Tony the Tiger should be banned from promoting junk food to improve childhood obesity rates, the Commons Health Committee suggests.
