  • 'Trust Me, I'm Dr. Ozzy' Book Signing Tour Announced

    LEGENDARY ROCK ICON AND
    NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR
    OF 'I AM OZZY' RETURNS TO EMBRACE
    HIS STATUS AS A MEDICAL MARVEL
    WITH
    TRUST ME, I'M DR. OZZY: Advice from Rock's Ultimate Survivor
    by OZZY OSBOURNE with Chris Ayres


    BOOK SIGNINGS SET TO COINCIDE
    WITH OCTOBER 11 RELEASE






    Based on his ongoing, hilarious Rolling Stone column, TRUST ME, I'M DR. OZZY: Advice from Rock's Ultimate Survivor by OZZY OSBOURNE with Chris Ayres finds the Prince of Darkness telling incredible stories not found in his memoir, offering advice that no human should follow, and shedding light on his seemingly superhuman ability to stay alive.

    Wondering if science could perhaps explain how he survived his 40-year avalanche of drugs and alcohol, OZZY OSBOURNE decided to have his DNA mapped in 2010. The "Full OZZY Genome" contained variants that scientists had never before encountered. In fact, the findings made headlines around the world and even led to OZZY hosting a prestigious TED conference. This was the genesis of the columns OZZY has since been writing for Rolling Stone in the US and The Sunday Times in the UK. Through reader-submitted medical and lifestyle questions, OZZY digs deep into his murky past, searching for "pearls of wisdom."

    TRUST ME, I'M DR. OZZY will include some of the best material from Rolling Stone, as well as longer memoir-style survival stories that OZZY has remembered since writing I AM OZZY, his answers to celebrities' medical questions, charts and sidebars, and much more. Part humor, part memoir, and part bad advice, the best way to describe this book is 100% pure OZZY.


    PRAISE for I AM OZZY


    "Horrific, fascinating, and often hilarious…One of the most amazing rock autobiographies of all time; highly recommended."
    --STARRED LIBRARY JOURNAL

    "Perfect...here it all is, in vivid as-told-to prose, an identity and its roots…"
    --SLATE

    "…OZZY OSBOURNE's stumbling, rambling, decadent-beyond-recognition memoir, as over-the-top as the author himself. The book would be heartbreaking if it weren't so hilarious."
    --THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    BRINGS THE STORY & MUSIC OF "THE PRINCE OF
    DARKNESS" TO THE BIG SCREEN
    * * * * *
    NCM Fathom, Omniverse Vision & Eagle Rock Entertainment Present
    One-Night Event Featuring Candid Portrait by Jack Osbourne at
    More than 400 Movie Theaters Nationwide
    This August, audiences across the country will get an unrivalled look into the mind of legendary rock icon Ozzy Osbourne in God Bless Ozzy Osbourne, an exclusive in-theater Fathom event that will be broadcast to more than 400 movie theaters nationwide on Wednesday, August 24 and Monday, August 29 at 7:30 p.m. (local time). Shot over the course of three years, audiences will experience the life story of Ozzy, as seen through the eyes of his youngest child, producer/filmmaker, Jack Osbourne, who worked alongside directors Mike Fleiss and Mike Piscitelli. Find the theater near you at http://www.fathomevents.com/originals/event/godblessozzy0824.aspx

    During the documentary, Ozzy will recount his troubled youth, his early career with Black Sabbath and the impact of fame and addictions on his first marriage. Viewers will also witness the second chapter of his life as a family man with Sharon, during which his addictions grew to a frightening level, as well as hear Ozzy and his children explain his attempts at staying clean, ultimately resulting in more than five years of sobriety. Music fans will also see live performances from around the world, including rare behind the scenes clips of Ozzy on and off stage, in his dressing rooms pre-show, to his nights in a series of hotel rooms. Throughout God Bless Ozzy Osbourne, audiences are given an inside look into the life of a rock star, from the good times to the bad.
    Tickets for God Bless Ozzy Osbourne are available at participating theater box offices and online at http://www.fathomevents.com/originals/event/godblessozzy0824.aspx

    Presented by NCM Fathom, Omniverse Vision and Eagle Rock Entertainment, God Bless Ozzy Osbourne will be broadcast to nearly 400 select movie theaters across the country through NCM's exclusive Digital Broadcast Network

    "This is the most honest portrait of my father. I set out to tell the truth - regardless of how raw it might be - and I think we accomplished just that," said Jack Osbourne.
    Ozzy Osbourne is a multi-platinum Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy®-winning musician. Osbourne's career has spanned four decades (as both a solo artist and as the lead singer of Black Sabbath) and his music is as relevant today as ever. Beyond his music career, Osbourne is an author (I AM OZZY, 2010), advice columnist (Sunday Times, London and Rolling Stone, America) and the first to have a celebrity-reality television program ("The Osbournes," which won a 2002 Primetime Emmy Award for "Outstanding Reality Program"). God Bless Ozzy Osbourne will relive the highs of his triumphs as well as his voyage to sobriety, which Ozzy regards as his greatest accomplishment.

    "During this exclusive Fathom event, Ozzy's son, Jack, will take the legion of Ozzy fans on an unbelievable journey experiencing a side of the music legend most have never seen," said Dan Diamond, vice president of Fathom.
