Shazza’s Maiden rampage

‘BRUCE A DICK’

IRON Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson can Run To The Hills and stay there as far as Sharon Osbourne is concerned.

Mrs O has labelled the rival metal frontman a “f**king *sshole” who is “jealous” of her hubby Ozzy.

Bruce and Shazza first fell out some 15 years ago when Maiden were heading an Ozzfest tour and Bruce was accused of criticising Ozzy on stage. Bruce even said his band would never feature “in a reality show,” in an apparent dig at the Black Sabbath man’s MTV series, The Osbournes.

Shazza responded by encouraging the audience to throw eggs at him during a concert.

Opening old wounds, Sharon now blasted: “Bruce Dickinson is a f**king prick. Well, no, he’s not a p***k because a p***k’s nice. He’s a f**king *sshole. Because the situation is he was on a tour called Ozzfest. And Ozzy Osbourne was paying him every night to perform. He accepted the gig.

“And every night he would go on stage and say bad things about Ozzy. And I thought, ‘You motherf**ker, now you’re gonna get it.’ And so I had about 20 people in the audience and a lot of them were nurses. And they all came down, and they f**king pelted the sh*t out of him. “And he’s never apologised – he never even went up and said hello to Ozzy. The thing about him is that he is just so jealous. And always has been of Ozzy. And that’s his problem.”

Even nice guy Ozzy isn’t fond of the Maiden singer, saying: “Bruce Dickinson is a great singer but as a person, I’ve worked with him, and he’s not very nice.” Bruce has previously tried playing down the spat, saying: “It’s a complete storm in a teacup. “I don’t like reality TV shows. I’m not gonna offer an olive branch to the Kardashians either.”
