Ozzy Osbourne has revealed wife Sharon tricked him into going to rehab by
telling him there would be a bar.
The former Black Sabbath singer - who has been treated for drink and drug
addictions - admitted himself under the illusion he was going to be taught
how to drink, not how to stop.
Ozzy told Hello magazine: "After Kelly was born, Sharon told me about a
place where they teach you to drink properly. I said 'Oh, what's that - the
pub?'
"She told me it was called the Betty Ford Center. And I thought, 'That's it!
I've been doing it wrong!'
"So I walk in, expecting to watch a demonstration of how to drink a Martini,
and I say, 'Hi Betty Ford, can you show me where the bar is?'
"This receptionist is like, 'What?!' "
Ozzy has had a few relapses but insists he wants to be sober and is
determined to try and stay off the drink for his family, wife Sharon, son
Jack and daughters Aimee and Kelly.
He said: "I've been trying to stay sober for 22 years. Some days are bad and
some days are great. I get up every day and I pray, 'Don't let me drink
today.' I don't like it, but I accept the fact that I can't drink. It's
hard, especially at Christmas. But all I know is I'm a very, very lucky man
to still be alive and I appreciate that."
Haha!!! Ozzy is funny as hell!!

No wonder Ozzy had to drink, he lives with Sharon for cripes sakes. She’s enough to drive you to drink. She just bugs me.

To tell you the truth i’m aware of who Ozzy is but know NOTHING about him. What was he addicted to other than alcohol????
Either way it’s great he’s sober….and truly amazing that he wants to stay sober.
