    Billy Idol Turns Down Reality TV Show

    Billy Idol Turns Down Reality TV Show

    Rock veteran Billy Idol has snubbed an offer to star in an Osbournes-style reality TV show.

    The comeback star was approached by TV bosses desperate to capture some of his legendary wild antics on camera as he goes about his day-to-day life.

    However, the British rocker admits he doesn't possess the natural wit Ozzy Osbourne displayed in The Osbournes - and would prefer to simply be known for his music.

    He says, "Oh, of course they offered me a reality show! They tried to come up with something daft."

    "I always thought Ozzy was naturally funny. He was a good idea for it."

    "But why do I want a camera around my a**hole all the time? I'm a songwriter, that's all I have to do."

        If I'm not mistaken - I think the No-Holds-Barbecue was an attempt to get a reality show.

        Personally, I'm glad it didn't work out for Dave. After watching Vince Neil make an ass out of himself on the Surreal Life - I wouldn't want Dave lumped into the same category.

        Props to Billy for keeping it about the music!

          Any show with DLR would get mega-ratings though, you must admit that...

          I know I would tune in each week, as long as Dave maintained creative control...
          Without DLR in the lineup, Van Halen is merely Rat Salade...

            Good for Billy keeps his dignity and I can't blame him I'd rather be known for the music as well.
