Brit bosses supposedly worried about carnage the Prince Of Darkness may cause

Apparently the organisers of the Brit Awards, set to take place tomorrow night (February 20), are worried that presenter Ozzy Osbourne will get naked during the ceremony.

According to the Daily Star, the concerns arose after his wife, Sharon Osbourne revealed that the Black Sabbath singer regularly sleepwalks naked in hotels, requiring a bell to be attached to his hotel door to prevent him embarrassing himself.

The newspaper quotes a “source” as saying: “All the organisers are chewing their fingernails because of Ozzy’s appearance. They know how unpredictable he is.

“He has a real devious streak and the minute he realises he will be the centre of attention you just know he’ll want to play up."


The Shockwaves NME Awards 2008 are coming soon – and it’s time to have your say. Vote now by heading to NME.COM/awardsvote and you could win VIP tickets to the ceremony, which takes place in London on February 28.

Great, yet another reason not to watch the Brit Awards.
