Representaion To Books Sharon Osbourne Extreme: My Autobiography
As the daughter of notorious rock manager Don Arden, Sharon Osbourne's childhood was an unruly mix of glamour and violence. In her late 20s, Sharon finally made the painful decision to break with her family. Always irrepressible, Sharon flourished, creating a loving family of her own while becoming a legendary manager and rockband promoter. In rock star Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon found her soul mate, yet Ozzy's drug and drink-fuelled excesses which culminated in his attempt to strangle her made their marriage a white knuckle ride from the start; only her devotion to their three children gave her the will to survive. From the tremendous highs of the hit show The Osbournes to the lows of Ozzy's near-fatal quad-bike accident and her own bout with colon cancer, Sharon's tenacity, honesty, and humour have triumphed again and again.Rating Appertaining To Books Sharon Osbourne Extreme: My Autobiography

Memory is a strange thing, and since starting this book I have discovered that peoples memories of the same event can be very, very different.Tell me about it, Sharon. In fact, its something I am increasingly finding in these ghost-written celeb tomes. That, in some way, the celebrities are forced to put their own side of versions, albeit ghostwritten (in this case by Penelope Dening, who surprisingly gets a mention on the title page with her subject), to somehow justify where they feel theirI specifically bought this book because I wanted to read about Sharon Osbourne's experience with colon cancer. I was disappointed that it was actually a very, very small part of the book, and didn't even come into the story until very near the end. Relatively speaking, it was a very brief account comapared to pages and pages and pages she devoted to other topics in her life. Aside from that, it was an interesting and entertaining read, although it was hard to believe about half the stuff she
The title of this autobiography tells it all "Extreme". If you want to go on a wild ride then this is the book for you. Prepare yourself for some bizarre escapades and foul language and you won't be able to put this book down. Hard to believe anyone could survive a life such as this.
This was really interesting, and definitely actually written by Sharon Osbourne. If there was a ghost writer involved, it was a great one, because her voice comes through loud and clear and the book's incredibly engaging. Her childhood was really fascinating, and although I knew that she was Ozzy's manager, I didn't understand how deep in that business she had been, or how insane her family was. I also didn't realize that their marriage was so abusive (she goes out of her way to say that she was
I have always thought Sharon Osbourne was an interesting person. Now, after reading her book, it is confirmed. She is an amazing person. Her life was nothing short of an adventure. Her father was a manager in the music industry out of the UK. He was not the ideal father. He was a scammer, a cheat, a mobster and he used Sharon so he could run his crooked business under the radar. Her mother was not any better. Even though her husband cheated on her and treated her worse than a 2-bit whore, she
Thanks to this book, I've got Ozzy's first album playing in my car (forgetten how good it was) and I'm ictching to watch 'The Osbournes' again. Luckly I have both seasons on dvd so I'll be doing that very soon. I didn't know who Sharon Osbourne was before I started watching the Osbournes. I already owned albums by Ozzy and Black Sabbath, so Ozzy was the main reason for watching. And like most people I fell in love with the whole family. And I love Sharon! She is the backbone behind all of them.
