Kelly Osbourne's Cover of 'Papa Don't Preach' #1 Most Added Song in the Country

Kelly to Debut Performance of Song at the MTV Movie Awards

May 30, 2002

The Single
Kelly Osbourne proves singing is in the genes with her remake of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach." Kelly's version of the song was the #1 most added single at radio in its first week of airplay and is already one of the most requested songs in the country.

The MTV Movie Awards
Kelly Osbourne will perform the song for the first time ever at the 2002 MTV Movie Awards. Ben Affleck, Bow Wow, Vin Diesel, Eve, Jennifer Garner, Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, Winona Ryder, and Charlize Theron complete the list of presenters. Hosted by Jack Black and Sarah Michelle Gellar, the eleventh annual awards show will be taped June 1st at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles and will air June 6th at 9 PM (ET/PT).

20 New Episodes of "The Osbournes"
Kelly can be seen on MTV's "The Osbournes," which features the real-life drama of the rock-n-roll family. MTV cameras follow the family over several months, at home and on the road, documenting the ups, downs, highs, lows, and the just plain bizarre.

"The Osbournes" will return for a second season in Fall 2002 with 20 new episodes that will air in the US and on MTV's around the world. The show will once again follow the real-life drama of Ozzy, Sharon, Jack, Kelly, the dogs, the cats, the assistants, the band, the roadies, the security guards, the neighbors, and Melinda the nanny.

The Family Album
The Osbourne Family Album will be in stores June 11. It features Kelly's debut single and Ozzy's current single "Dreamer." The disc also contains the best dialogue from the hit MTV series "The Osbournes" between each track. The package contains a greeting card from the family just in time for Father's Day. The greeting card contains the line made famous by Ozzy, America's favorite father, "I love you more than life itself, but you are 'bleeping' mad." The Osbourne Family Album features a collection of personal favorites hand-picked by the family. Here are a few highlights:

  • The original 1971 version of "Imagine" by John Lennon. Ozzy and Sharon fell in love to this song while they were dating.
  • Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight." Ozzy used to play this song for Sharon while they were getting ready to go out.
  • "You Really Got Me" by the Kinks, gave Ozzy his first taste of rock 'n' roll.
  • Rare tracks from System of A Down and Starsailor chosen by Jack and Kelly.
  • Ozzy Osbourne classics "Mama, I'm Coming Home," from No More Tears (1991); and "Crazy Train," from Ozzy's 1981 solo debut Blizzard of Ozz, featuring the late Randy Rhoads on guitar.
