Sharon Osbourne confesses huge mistake she made with husband Ozzy
Sharon appeared on the latest episode of Billy Corgan’s podcast, The Magnificent Others with Billy Corgan, where she dived into her marriage and her career.
It was here she confessed: “Do you want to know the biggest mistake I ever made with Ozzy?”
“You’re going to admit to a mistake?” Corgan joked.
Sharon quipped: “I have several, Billy, we could be here all night!”
She then confessed: “[Ozzy] got offered to go and read for Pirates of the Caribbean – and I’ve never said this to anyone. I said no. Now wouldn’t he have been perfect?”
Sharon didn’t detail which role her husband was offered. However, the film franchise later cast Rolling Stones icon Keith Richards, who played Captain Edward, the father of Johnny Depp’s character, Jack Sparrow.
Reports claim that Johnny Depp also asked close friend and Beatles legend Paul McCartney to star in the fifth film, as his character’s uncle, also named Jack.
