The Birmingham heavy-metal band fronted by Ozzy Osbourne that made the Osbourne name famous. Sharon, who managed Ozzy’s solo career and the family’s business empire, built her own celebrity on that foundation before reality television made her a star in her own right — the fame whose close-up demands fed her long cosmetic-surgery history. The band’s legend gave the family its name; Sharon’s television career gave that name a second life.
