Sharon Osbourne Says She Disinvited 1 Band from Performing at Ozzy Osbourne's Final Concert with Black Sabbath

Sharon Osbourne revealed that she disinvited one well-known band from performing at husband Ozzy Osbourne's final concert event with Black Sabbath on July 5 Speaking ahead of Ozzy's final show with the heavy metal group, she shared that the one band 'wanted to make a profit' 'I'll let everybody know who it was. I think people will be shocked,' Sharon, who manages Ozzy's solo career, saidSharon Osbourne revealed that she disinvited one well-known band from Ozzy Osbourne's final concert event with Black Sabbath. Speaking with Billboard ahead of her husband's final show with the heavy metal group, which took place at England's Villa Park on July 5, Sharon said that one band was removed from performing at the 'Back to the Beginning' concert event because its members 'wanted to make a profit.' "It's not the time to make a profit," Sharon, the 72-year-old TV personality who also manages Ozzy's solo career, told the outlet. "After the show I'll let everybody know who it was. I think people will be shocked." Sharon, who has also managed Black Sabbath aside from her husband's career since 1979, previously told Metal Hammer in June that the unnamed group's removal from the lineup came after a dispute with the its manager, leading her to feel "the worst way I've felt in years." "I had a huge, huge to-do with a manager over this celebration for Ozzy and Sabbath," she explained. "And I don't care what this person says about me, thinks about it, because he doesn't know me. And he's now going around making up b------- lies because I threw his band off the bill." Although some heavy metal fans speculated that the band removed from the bill was Iron Maiden, Sharon dismissed those rumors. "Oh god, no. Ozzy only has respect for the guys in Maiden," she said. The 'Back to the Beginning' concert event took place in the rock band's hometown of Birmingham, England, and also featured a who's-who of rock icons such as Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Slayer and more.

Black Sabbath performed 'War Pigs,' 'N.I.B.,' 'Iron Man' and 'Paranoid' — while Osbourne, 76, also performed solo songs such as 'I Don't Know,' 'Mr. Crowley,' 'Suicide Solution,' 'Mama, I'm Coming Home' and 'Crazy Train.' 'Back to the Beginning' marked the full group's first performance since their The End Tour, which also concluded in Birmingham in 2017. At the July 5 show, since Osbourne's ability to stand and walk has been greatly affected by Parkinson's disease — which he was diagnosed with in 2019 — the rocker sat on a bat-themed throne with a skull design on each arm rest for the performance. Earlier this year, Osbourne confirmed to Billboard that he wouldn't perform a full set with Black Sabbath, saying, "I am doing what I can, where I feel comfortable." Osbourne did not perform at his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2024 and had to cancel his last scheduled concert at the Power Trip festival in 2023. Recently, the rocker opened up about about "giving 120%" at his final concert on his SiriusXM show Ozzy Speaks, which airs monthly on SiriusXM's Ozzy's Boneyard. "If my God wants me to do the show, I'll do it,' he said at the time. Read the original article on People

Jessie J reveals ‘no cancer spread' after operation

Singer Jessie J has revealed she has 'no cancer spread' following an operation, after announcing earlier this year she had been diagnosed with 'early breast cancer'. The 37-year-old, whose real name is Jessica Cornish, posted a picture of her son saying 'mummy's going to be OK' on Instagram while announcing the news. She said in the post: 'And I am OK, results = I have no cancer spread, happy tears are real. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jessie J (@jessiej) 'Thank you for the prayers, the love, the well wishes, the joy and all the positive energy. 'This video is from the night before my surgery. We called it baby boy. You are my biggest ray of light and with you in my life, the darkness will never win. 'Lots of healing to go and one more surgery to make these cousins look more like sisters, but for now it's gratitude time and I am changing my name to The LopJess monster.' In early June, the Price Tag singer said she had been spending time 'in and out of tests' when announcing her diagnosis. She said in a post at the time: 'I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. 'Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding on to the word 'early'. 'It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job. I am going to disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive tits and more music.' The pop star said she had announced her diagnosis publicly to help her process the news, and to show solidarity with others who were going through a similar experience. The London-born singer welcomed her son, Sky Safir Cornish Colman, in 2023, having had a miscarriage in November 2021. She has battled with ill health throughout her life, having been diagnosed with a heart condition aged eight, suffering a minor stroke aged 18 and having briefly gone deaf in 2020. Jessie J performed at Capital's Summertime Ball last month, where she promised fans she would 'beat' breast cancer. The singer-songwriter has had three number one songs in the UK singles charts with Domino, Price Tag, and Bang Bang. She was awarded four Mobo awards in 2011 including Best UK Act, Best Newcomer, Best Song for Do It Like A Dude and Best Album with Who You Are and won the Brit Award for Rising Star in 2011.

‘Superman' Star David Corenswet Reached Out to Henry Cavill and Tyler Hoechlin for Advice, but They Said We're ‘Not Gonna Try and Give You Any Tips': ‘Superman's Not So Much for Giving Advice'

The new Superman has to save the world all on his own. In a red carpet interview with Heart at the London premiere of James Gunn's 'Superman,' star David Corenswet discussed asking for advice from Henry Cavill and Tyler Hoechlin, who both played the DC icon in 'Man of Steel' and 'Superman & Lois,' respectively. Although they were 'encouraging' to Corenswet, they didn't want to influence his performance.

'And I think that's a very Superman thing. Superman's not so much for giving advice or dictating how other people should be.' He continued, 'They really just conveyed to me an encouragement and a sense of 'have fun with it', which I think is Superman's way of doing it too. They were very encouraging and we had a lovely experience. I'm excited to meet them one day. It'll be great when we can all get in a room together.' Joining Corenswet in 'Superman,' which releases July 11, are Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, María Gabriela de Faría as The Engineer, Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen and Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl. On the heels of 'Superman,' Gunn teased who he imagines leading another project that is 'being written right now': a Wonder Woman feature film. He suggested 'Hit Man' star Adria Arjona was one of his top picks for the titular role. 'I follow Adria on Instagram, but everybody came out [and thought], 'He just followed her, that means she's Wonder Woman,'' Gunn said. 'She'd be a great Wonder Woman, by the way.'
