SLASH's Divorce Might Cost him Half of his Assets (El Divorcio de SLASH le Podría Costar la Mitad de sus Bienes)
After 14 years of marriage, SLASH and his wife Perla Ferrar have announced that they are getting divorced again. As you may recall, last time the divorce was nulled by SLASH after the couple reconciliated.
While a divorce is never pretty, this one might get really ugly for SLASH as he might lose half of his assets. TMZ has reported that no prenuptial agreement was signed between the two parties, and that Perla already hired a lawyer to find out how much SLASH is worth.
But it's all not bad news for SLASH. Since the couple got married after the demise of GUNS N' ROSES, she wouldn't receive a penny from SLASH's G N 'R money. And lets face it, even though SLASH has cashed in after leaving G N' R via various projects, the majority of his income does come from G N' R.
We really hope that the couple keep it cool for the sake of their two sons (pictured above).
Versión en Español:
Después de 14 años de matrimonio, SLASH y su esposa Perla Ferrar se van a divorciar otra vez. Tal vez se recuerden que la ultima vez que la pareja se separo, SLASH anulo el divorcio luego de que la pareja se reconcilio.
Un divorcio no es nada agradable, pero este podría ser bastante horrible para SLASH ya que podría perder la mitad de sus bienes. TMZ publico un reporte el cual indica que nunca se firmo un acuerdo prenupcial entre la pareja, y que Perla ya contrato a un abogado para averiguar cuanto vale SLASH.
Pero SLASH no tiene mucho de que preocuparse ya que la pareja se caso después de que GUNS N' ROSES se separo. Lo cual quiere decir que Perla no recibirá ni un centavo del dinero que SLASH se gano (y se gana) por su trabajo y sus composiciones con G N' R. Aunque el a ganado bastante dinero con sus diferentes proyectos post-G N' R, es bastante claro que la mayoría del dinero de SLASH viene de G N' R.
Nosotros esperamos que la pareja no pierda su cordura para que sus dos hijos (los de la foto de arriba) no sufran mas de la cuenta.

OZZY's Family Talk About His Recent Relapse
As previously reported, Ozzy Osbourne announced that for the last year and a half he has been drinking and taking drugs. He also admits to have been an a&*hole to his loved ones. Here is Ozzy's open letter to his fans in which he also clarifies that he is NOT divorcing Sharon.
His wife Sharon and his daughter Kelly, have commented on Ozzy's relapse:
"He's doing incredibly well. He is. Eighty-plus days clean and sober. He's working his program rigidly", said Sharon Osbourne. "It's amazing to see how somebody in just over 80 days can change their life around. You know, miracles happen all the time and he has (gone from) hating himself, from a place of despair, to being a responsible husband and father again and it's amazing to see. I'm very proud of him. He's a great example, too, for people. He's not the only person that suffers from addiction.
"Tomorrow's a new day and you start all over again. You just don't give up, it doesn't matter what you have, or your position in life, you still have those demons in you.
"This problem affects so many people. It doesn't matter what you have. It's the same battle for everyone."
To this, Kelly added: "I love and respect that he's honest enough to say, 'Yes, I did this. It was my fault'. He's a real man. Most people would hide, and he doesn't. It doesn't make me love him any less.
"It took a long time to get to that place, but I understand it now. And my mother [Ozzy's wife/manager Sharon] does too.
"We had a TV show about this. Now people are trying to act like it's a new story."
We have to hand it to Ozzy for being so honest! Get well soon Ozzy, we love you!

Tony Iommi Is Not Cancer Free, But The "Iron Man" Can't Be Stopped - Update By Iommi Available!
During a recent interview with Guitar World magazine, Tony Iommi from BLACK SABBATH provided an update on his cancer treatment. The guitarist has been receiving treatment at the Parkway Hospital in Solihull and will have to return home from tour on a regular basis in order to receive treatment since he is not Cancer free. This totally explains why SABBATH will only be doing short tour runs for the time being.
"When I'd finished the chemo and the radiotherapy, I went to see the doctor again for my regular blood tests. I said, 'So it's gone now?' And he said, 'No, it's not going to go. You're not going to get rid of it. But we can treat it and work with it.' I got all dismal, because I thought it was gone. He said there was a 30 percent chance of it going away, but I was probably going to have this for life. Now I get treatments to keep it from spreading. So every six weeks I go in for an infusion of Rituximab, which is one of the four ingredients when they give you the chemo. It takes a few hours, and it makes you feel a bit crap inside and a bit sick. But a couple weeks after, I start perking up again. So that's how we are working it with the shows. I go out, then come back and go into the hospital for more treatment, more blood tests and all the rest of the rubbish. And then we do it all over again."
During the interview, Iommi also spoke about the bands NEW album, '13' — the first in 35 years to feature Tony, Ozzy Osbourne and Geezer Butler. Here is what Iommi had to say about working with Rick Rubin:
"Honestly, I didn't quite know what to make of him at first. His whole idea [of pre-production] was, 'Write the song. Call me when you think it's ready.' So I would. Actually, I'd email him, because I couldn't phone him... nobody phones him. So I'd email him: 'Do you want to come down tonight?' And he'd pop in, have a listen, go, 'Yeah, I like that,' or, 'I don't like it.' We wanted him to be more involved, like, 'Well, what about changing that, or putting that bit there, or go to the A,' or whatever. But he was this elusive guy that we never really saw. But when we started recording, he was there all the time... lying on the bed with the microphone. [laughs] Blimey, what a strange guy. [laughs] His way of working was he'd have us playing it live in the studio like we did on the first album. We'd play the song a couple times, then Rick would say, 'Can you do it again?' After we'd finish, Geezer would be sitting next to me, and I'd say, 'That sounded all right didn't it?' And he'd say, 'It was a good one.' And Rick would go, 'Do another one.' [laughs] So we'd do another one, and another one, and then Rick would go, 'I think we've got it, but do you want to try another one to see if you can better it?' Ozzy would be sitting in the booth going, 'Fucking hell, we got to do it again?' [laughs] Rick definitely pushed us."

Sharon Osbourne clears the air about the rumors about OZZY & her getting a divorce
Earlier today (April 23), Sharon Osbourne cleared the air about the rumors about OZZY and her getting a divorce during the CBS daytime talk show "The Talk" (which she co-hosts). Here is what she said about this:
"Everything that was printed in the tabloids has been distorted.
"There's always a little seed of truth to everything that gets reported, but then it gets very distorted. The only thing that's true is the Facebook posting that my husband did on his Facebook where he said he's been using alcohol and prescription drugs for the last year and a half, and that he's been an asshole, and he's been in a very dark place. That's true — it's very true.
"Everybody knows he's been struggling with this his entire life, and I never knew that he was using prescription drugs. I knew he was drinking occasionally, but I didn't realize, you know, to the extent.
"It's our business, we're dealing with it. We're not getting divorced, however.
"Am I happy? No. Am I upset? Yes, I am. I'm devastated right now. It's a disease that not only hurts the person that has the disease, but it hurts the family. It hurts people who love you.
"We're dealing with it. We've dealt with worse, and we will deal with it, and this, too, shall pass... Otherwise, my husband will be taken to hospital to get my foot removed from his ass."
BLACK SABBATH have announced four summer shows in North America in support of the release of their NEW album, '13', due out June 11.

This is how OZZY saved Tony Iommi's Life!
OZZY is the man to thank for doctors finding Tony Iommi's lymphoma (a type of blood cancer) at the right time!
During a recent interview with Birmingham Mail, Iommi said that he was feeling some significant pain in his groin and OZZY insisted that he should go see a doctor. The BLACK SABBATH guitarist also said that "I have to have an antibody administered by drip every six weeks or so to keep the lymphoma in check". After the antibody is administered he's usually sick for about 10 days afterward.
"It sort of coats the cancer cells, stops it from going anywhere else. I have to come back home no matter where I might be in the world. The tour dates are arranged so that I can always get back for treatment. It’s the only way I can manage my illness and keep on the road. I’d love to play more shows than we’re doing but my health has to be sorted out first."
Read the entire interview HERE.
Ozzy recently announced that for the last year and a half he has been drinking and taking drugs. He also admits to have been an a&*hole to his loved ones. HERE is Ozzy's open letter to his fans in which he also clarifies that he is NOT divorcing Sharon.

Tony Iommi Releases Health Update: "“I have to have an antibody administered by drip every six weeks or so to keep the lymphoma in check"
During a recent interview with the Birmingham Mail in England, Tony Iommi from BLACK SABBATH provided an update on his cancer treatment. The guitarist has been receiving treatment at the Parkway Hospital in Solihull and will have to return home from tour on a regular basis in order to receive treatment. That explains why SABBATH will only be doing short tour runs for the time being.
"I have to have an antibody administered by drip every six weeks or so to keep the lymphoma in check", Iommi said. "It sort of coats the cancer cells, stops it from going anywhere else. I have to come back home no matter where I might be in the world. The tour dates are arranged so that I can always get back for treatment. It’s the only way I can manage my illness and keep on the road. I’d love to play more shows than we’re doing but my health has to be sorted out first.
"The infusions I have are part of the chemotherapy regime. It’s relatively new treatment and they don’t know what all the side-effects might be yet, but I wanted to try it. After each session I feel sick and tired, and that lasts for a week or so. I’m finding that it takes around 10 days to fully recover from each round of treatment, but if that’s what it takes, I have to accept it.
"In myself I’m feeling OK now. When I first found that I had the illness, it was a dark time and I was a bit spaced out. Since we’ve been in rehearsals and recording sessions, I’ve felt pretty good — great even. I think that the album and tour have given me something immediate to get my teeth into, something to accomplish."

OZZY OSBOURNE Relapses, Claims To Be Sober Now, But Is He Divorcing Sharon?
We have some not so shocking news! Ozzy Osbourne has announced that for the last year and a half he has been drinking and taking drugs. He also admits to have been an a&*hole to his loved ones. Here is Ozzy's open letter to his fans in which he also clarifies that he is NOT divorcing Sharon:
"For
the last year and a half I have been drinking and taking drugs. I was
in a very dark place and was an asshole to the people I love most, my
family. However, I am happy to say that I am now 44 days sober.
We have to hand it to Ozzy for being so honest! Get well soon Ozzy, we love you!
In addition, in advance of the release of '13', the album’s first single “God Is Dead?” will debut across Clear Channel Media and Entertainment’s more than 40 Active Rock and Mainstream Rock radio stations nationwide on Thursday, April 18 at 3:00 PM (ET)/12 Noon (PT).

"Just to set the record straight, Sharon and I are not divorcing. I’m just trying to be a better person.
"I would like to apologize to Sharon, my family, my friends and my band
mates for my insane behavior during this period………and my fans.
