Trivia: Jack Osbourne -- the son of heavy metal rocker Ozzy Osbourne and his music manager-turned-talk show hostess wife, Sharon -- emerged as a star on his family's MTV reality series, The Osbournes (2002-2006). That program took a darkly comic look at familial dysfunction among the wealthy and privileged -- and netted the highest ratings of any single series in MTV history. By the time it wrapped, Jack in particular began to clean himself up; he dropped his alleged excessive drinking, lost over 50 pounds, and emerged triumphant. MTV rejected his pitch for a reality series of his own (reportedly arguing that he couldn't carry it); he instead starred in Jack Osbourne: Adrenaline Junkie -- a U.K.reality program that found Jack and cast mates traveling the globe to participate in "exotic" sports such as running with the bulls in Pamplona and engaging in Thai boxing. In early 2007, Osbourne also participated in the short-lived reality series Armed & Famous, in which he and other celebrities (including Erik Estrada and LaToya Jackson) spent time as officers with the Muncie, IN, police department.Osbourne continued to appear in a number of reality shows, including a stint I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Outt of Here in 2010 and on Dancing with the Stars in 2013. He also branched into producing, and made a documentary on his father.

Trivia: Heavy metal pioneer Ozzy Osbourne first gained exposure as co-founder and vocalist of the groundbreaking hard rock band Black Sabbath, which formed in 1969 in Osbourne's hometown of Birmingham, England. After nearly a decade of helping to define the parameters of the heavy metal genre, Osbourne embarked upon a solo career that brought him even more success and infamy. He became a symbol for hard rock excess and outrageousness, thanks to his music's quasi-Satanic imagery, his very public substance abuse, and an assortment of bizarre stunts (such as biting the head off of a dove in front of a roomful of record executives and an arrest for urinating against the Alamo). Osbourne's few silver screen appearances have been cameos in youth-oriented films that play off his image as the ultimate rock & roll heathen, though his interview segment in the documentary The Decline of Western Civilization 2: The Metal Years was one of the few down-to-earth, honest moments in a revealing, and often damning, portrayal of the metal scene's fans and performers. However, it was with the 2002 premiere of the MTV reality series The Osbournes that Ozzy entered the strangest chapter of his career in the public eye. Millions tuned in weekly to peer into the day-to-day life of the Osbourne clan, as captured by a camera crew set up in the family mansion. Ozzy was revealed to be a sweet (if addled) husband and father who loved his wife and children despite the unending chaos and profanity that distinguished their home. The popularity of the series made Osbourne (and the rest of his brood) more famous than ever with many viewers who had never even heard his music. Along with wife Sharon, Ozzy became a symbol of modern parenting for some, and proof of American society's utter dysfunction to others. What's certain is that The Osbournes humanized the long-reviled singer's image and brought Ozzy mainstream television fame that no one could have ever predicted. Over the course of the next decade, Sharon became a celebrity in her own right by spouting off opinions on The Talk and insults on America's Got Talent, and Ozzy continued to rock fans all over the world in addition to being the subject of the 2011 documentary God Bless Ozzy Osburne -- a candid documentary that's guaranteed to make fans of The Osbourne's look back at the groundbreaking reality series in a diferent light. Ozzy continued to make music, reuniting with Black Sabbath in 2012 and working on his solo career.

Trivia: Music manager-turned-media darling Sharon Osbourne -- the wife of heavy metal guru Ozzy Osbourne -- first sailed into prominence in 2002, as one of the four stars of MTV's reality series The Osbournes. This program took viewers behind-the-scenes for a raw and blackly humorous glimpse of the titular family's daily life, with son Jack and daughter Kelly ever-present. Unsurprisingly, it turned into an instant blockbuster, scoring mile-high ratings -- some of the highest in the channel's history.Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne first met in the late '70s, when Sharon took on her shoulders the task of managing the ex-Black Sabbath frontman's music career pending his own decision to go solo. In seemingly no time at all, she helped him maintain, and build on, his superstardom -- and did the same for numerous other up-and-coming rock celebrities through the late '90s. The MTV program, of course, represented Sharon's most visible trip into the limelight up through that time. When it wrapped in 2006 (at the end of its fourth season), Sharon -- who endured and emerged victorious from a very public battle with colon cancer -- moved on to other filmed projects. These included hosting her own short-lived talk program, The Sharon Osbourne Show, and serving as a judge on the talent-search-themed reality series The X Factor and America's Got Talent. Cinematically, Osbourne voiced one of the characters in the CG-animated outing Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties (2006) and tackled a live-action role in the teen comedy It's a Boy Girl Thing (2006). In 2010, she became one of the co-hosts of the CBS show The Talk.
