Cooper Brands Ozzy 'A Joke'
Rock legend Alice Cooper has blamed Ozzy Osbourne's reality TV show for ruining the Black Sabbath star's career.
Cooper, 59, feels reality TV show The Osbournes destroyed all of the mystique surrounding the star and left fans disappointed with an unexpected insight into the rocker's life.
He says, "Most fans thought he lived in a big, dark castle with skeletons in the cellar.
"When that show aired they knew he was just some guy who potters around his Beverly Hills mansion. It was meant to be some kind of comedy but the audience was laughing at Ozzy, not with him.
"And as a close friend, that made me very sad."
