Paul McCartney To Duet With Ozzy At Brit Awards
Pair to sing 'Live And Let Die'...

by C Taylor on 29/12/2007

Sir Paul McCartney is set to team up with a strange choice of singing partner the 2008 Brit Awards – he’s to duet with Ozzy Osbourne.

The former Beatle is to receive the Outstanding Contribution To Music award, and plans are being finalised for him to give the show a fitting conclusion by performing Bond theme classic ‘Live And Let Die’ with the ex-Black Sabbath frontman.

Why Macca needs someone to duet with on the song, and why that someone would be Ozzy, is beyond us – but, perhaps unsurprisingly, it’s all Sharon Osbourne’s idea.

She tells The Sun, “They go together really well. It will be amazing.”

Ozzy is a self-confessed McCartney fanatic though, after voting ‘Memory Almost Full’ his album of 2007.

“McCartney’s a genius. The Beatles were the greatest band ever,” he says.

According to Blabbermouth, there's been an official announcement that it's all rumor and NOT happening...because Ozzy's afraid of looking like a "Cropper in front of Macca"...

Which is technically better than looking like a Mopper in front of Cracca, but...

:rolleyes:

No doubt this will be Ozzy's personal "thrill of a lifetime".
I think they'll pull it off well.
I'm actually very happy for the old sod (Oz);)

OZZY OSBOURNE And PAUL MCCARTNEY Won't Sing Together At BRIT AWARDS - Jan. 4, 2008

According to Showbiz Spy, rumors of a duet between Paul McCartney and Ozzy Osbourne at this year's the Brit Awards (the British equivalent of the Grammy Awards) have been shot down by the award show's bosses.

The legendary music gods were reported to be collaborating on a unique version of Bond theme "Live And Let Die" for the music bash at London's Earls Court on February 20.

"It is not true at all," says a spokesperson. "Someone made it up."

58-year-old Ozzy — who will be hosting the ceremony with wife Sharon, 55 — is still nervous because he's concerned about making a fool of himself in front of his idol.

"The Brits have been playing on Ozzy's mind," a pal told Britain's Daily Star newspaper. "He's worried about coming a cropper in front of Macca."
