Ozzy Seriously Injured In Accident

Ozzy badly hurt in crash
December 9, 2003 - 10:19AM


Ozzy Osbourne was seriously injured today in an accident on the grounds of his estate in England and underwent emergency surgery, a spokeswoman said.

The 55-year-old rock star was riding a "quad bike," or all-terrain vehicle, on his Buckinghamshire property when the accident occurred, according to a statement issued by publicist Cindy Guagenti.

His injuries were not considered to be life-threatening, she said.

An examination showed Osbourne broke his collarbone, six ribs and a vertebra in his neck, according to Guagenti. He was in surgery this evening at an undisclosed English hospital.

The operation was intended to lift the collarbone, which was believed to be resting on a major artery and interrupting blood flow to his arm. Surgeons also were trying to stem "some bleeding into his lungs," according to the statement.

Osbourne was taking a day off from promoting the United Kingdom release of "Changes," a duet with his daughter, Kelly, when the accident occurred.

Guagenti's office said no further information was immediately available.

"The Osbournes," the MTV reality show featuring the rocker, wife Sharon and their children, started production about a month ago on its third season, scheduled to begin January 13.

It was not immediately known how the accident would affect production or how or whether it might be included in the series, an MTV spokeswoman said today.

On Saturday, a story on the Los Angeles Times website reported Osbourne's claim that he was overprescribed a variety of powerful anti-psychotic and tranquillizing drugs by a Beverly Hills physician.

Osbourne said he developed a 42-pill per day habit that accounted for his odd behaviour on the hit MTV show, including scenes in which Osbourne was seen mumbling, falling and appearing disoriented.

Earlier this month, Osbourne told a British newspaper he was sexually molested as a child and suffered emotional effects from the abuse long into adulthood.

I wonder how many of those 42 meds he had taken at the time...

Thanks for thinking of me.

I'm just fine. Thanks for your concern.

I'll fight him for the right to have the name.

And the outpouring of concern is heartwarming. If I really am in an accident some day I will be comforted to know that two Apolytoners care.
