The untold truth of Ozzy Osbourne

It's hard to overstate Ozzy Osbourne's role in rock history. As the vocalist of Black Sabbath, he stood at the literal forefront of the musical developments that unleashed heavy metal upon the unwary world. As a solo artist, he released some of the most instantly recognizable songs of the 1980s and early 1990s. As a TV star, he and the rest of The Osbournes ushered in the era of the celebrity family reality show. And, of course, as an old-school rock hedonist he rivals the likes of Lemmy Kilmister and Keith Richards.
Because the Ozzman has been a constant media presence since the 1970s, his face is familiar to most people, his antics are legendary, and it's impossible to attend a rock concert where someone doesn't jokingly request "Paranoid." But how well do we really know the man behind the myth? The Prince of Darkness has many sides, and some of them are quite well hidden from the public. Come, let's take a look at the untold truth of Ozzy Osbourne.
