According to [www.ozzy.com](http://www.ozzy.com) Ozzy had an accident:

Apparently Ozzy was riding a quad bike(four wheeler?) and had an accident. (I gotta wonder who let Ozzy on a power bike. Bad choice)

I’ve been a huge Ozzy fan since I was 11. I’ve met the man and he is a truely nice guy. This is just a bummer.

On the brightside this will not hurt his singing abilites.

Don’t be sad. Sharon Osbourne was on Lorraine Kelly’s breakfast show yesterday morning saying he was doing fine, asking nurses to marry him etc. He’ll be back 🙂

This happened last week… Ozzy must be thrilled to know that his fans take such an active interest in his life.  
😃  
Please don’t hit me, I’m just messing with you! Get well soon, Ozzy…
