OZZY OSBOURNE Wants To Ban Christmas
December 24, 2010, 13 years ago
According to WENN.com, OZZY OSBOURNE wants to ban Christmas - he's branded the excitement and hype of the festive season "a wind-up".
The BLACK SABBATH frontman is adamant most modern festive traditions have little to do with the true meaning of the Christian festival.
And he can no longer tolerate Yuletide since he quit booze, because he always treated the seasonal holidays as the "perfect excuse" to get drunk.
In his health column for The Sunday Times Magazine, Osbourne writes, "Christmas should be banned. Full stop. Although when I was drinking, I thought it was great, 'cos it was the perfect excuse to get blasted... Now I can't stand any of it.
"All this '10 more shopping days to go' bullocks is such a wind-up. I ain't exactly Mr. Holy, but what's that got to do with Baby Jesus being born?... The faster we get to New Year's Day 2011, the better."
