The Osbournes have been signed up to present the next year’s viewer voted American Music Awards which will air live in the US on 13 Jan. "I can't wait to see what Ozzy and the rest of the family have in store for us, and I know the ABC-TV censor is already having dreams, or should I say nightmares, about their live ad-libs," awards executive producer Dick Clark told reporters.
Meanwhile Sharon Osbourne has told Barbra Walters on ABC she wished she'd never invited MTV's cameras into her home to film their fly-on-the-wall series. Saying the show had "changed us all so much," and that she regretted the fact her teenage children now had lawyers and business managers, she said: "This is definitely the last year. We can't do it anymore. In the second series, people will see what the first series has done to our lives and it will take people to the next stage. But after that, it's over."
Talking about being filmed why she received treatment for colan cancer, a condition which has driven Ozzy back to drink, she said: “ You know when you're sick, you want to be on your own. I can't throw up on my own and Ozzy can't get drunk on his own." However she has subsequently denied some media rumours that she will quit the show before the twenty episodes of the second season are complete.
