McCartney snubs Ozzy duet

Sir Paul McCartney has disappointed pal Ozzy Osbourne by declining an opportunity to duet with the rocker at the 2008 Brit Awards.
The former Black Sabbath singer, who will co-host the ceremony with his wife and manager Sharon, was ecstatic at the prospect of fulfilling his lifelong dream of sharing the stage with the former Beatle.
But McCartney, 65, has since decided to perform a simple solo set instead. He says, “You can either go for something wow or just do a couple of hits - I’ve opted for the latter. I’m quite happy to be just doing stuff that I hope the audience will like.”
He adds, “This year will be outstanding - because Ozzy is presenting.”
