Vs Maiden |

magazine in its November 2005 issue that her beef is solely with Iron Maiden's
frontman Bruce Dickinson, which became quite public after the incident
at Ozzfest in Devore, California on August 20th. "The band are actually
really nice guys, but the singer has a chip on his shoulder," Osbourne
said. "The bottom line is, it's not my fault that his solo records are
sh**. Don't be jealous of what Ozzy does...[I'm sure Bruce is jealous of
