OZZY OSBOURNE Leads Dodger Stadium In Giant Scream; Video, Photos Available

June 12, 2010

Ozzy Osbourne made an appearance at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles on Friday night (June 11) to lead the crowd in what was being billed as "the longest and loudest scream ever" during the fifth inning break in that evening's game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. The event was part of the third annual ThinkCure! Weekend at the stadium. ThinkCure! is a community-based non-profit that accelerates collaborative research to cure cancers.

Ozzy was joined for the scream by Stuart Claxton of Guinness World Records, who was on hand to determine whether the scream's length and volume sets a new world record.

Check out video footage of Ozzy's appearance at MLB.com. Photos can be found at this location.

Ozzy told The Pulse of Radio that his wife/manager Sharon's bout with colon cancer several years ago was unexpected and frightening. "It's always someone else," he said. "You never really think it's gonna happen to you. It's like, across the road or down the street or something. To be honest with you, the first month when (inaudible),I was like, I'd never known anyone that had been diagnosed with that that had recovered. But then I went to my doctor one day and he said to me, 'I had colon cancer 10 years ago and I got over it, you know.' He was the first guy that ever gave me hope."

Fans can also make a donation to ThinkCure! online, via phone or through texting. An online auction last year raised $50,000.

Sharon Osbourne lent her support to ThinkCure! by recording a promotional message that will air during the game and online, according to a press release.

Ozzy's new album, appropriately titled "Scream", comes out June 22 and features the single "Let Me Hear You Scream".
