Ozzy Osbourne cancels more shows, due to pneumonia

Ozzy Osbourne has been forced to cancel more shows, having recently developed pneumonia. A statement reads:

Ozzy has announced that he will now cancel shows in Australia, New Zealand and Japan. This follows news of the postponement of the entire UK and European leg of his “NO MORE TOURS 2” tour on doctors’ orders.

“Ozzy recently developed pneumonia and has spent some time in hospital. Thankfully he is now through the worst part,” says Sharon Osbourne. “His doctors have advised that he stay at home to recuperate for a full six weeks with no travel.”

As mentioned in the statement, this follows the Ozzy postponing his Europe tour due to a severe upper-respiratory infection. Last week, Sharon reported Ozzy was “breathing on his own” again after being hospitalized for that infection. Last year, he postponed shows due to needing surgery on his hand.

Ozzy’s “No More Tours 2” tour — which he says will be his final trek around the world — currently has a North American run with Megadeth scheduled that’s set to hit NYC’s Madison Square Garden on June 11.

Get well soon, Ozz!
