Swearing OZZY OSBOURNE Too Fast For Censors On Australia's 'Today'; Video Available

March 12, 2008

Australia's NineMSN reports: He got through eight minutes of a live-to-air interview without a profanity, but Ozzy Osbourne swore at the final hurdle during an exclusive interview with Richard Wilkins this morning (Wednesday, March 12).

Ozzy and wife Sharon were chatting to Nine's entertainment guru live from Los Angeles on the "Today" show and were discussing their impending tour of Australia when the veteran rock star had an Osbournes moment.

Sharon joked that her husband planned to bite the heads off koalas and crocodiles during a wildlife safari, almost prompting a cuss from Ozzy.

He managed to suppress a rude word and admitted "I find it very hard to speak without saying a profanity", which drew congratulations from Wilkins.

"You've done very well, Ozzy — thank you," he said.

"Whaddya mean, it's f****** great!" Ozzy bellowed, as Sharon tried to cover his mouth.
