OZZY OSBOURNE on 9/11 Terrorist Attacks: “I was excited!”

The rock star told Shortlist that being in New York on the day of the World Trade Center collapse was ‘his kind of craziness’.

“I wasn’t scared, I was excited,” he claimed. “It was my kind of craziness, y’know. The day after that happened, there was f**king nobody in New York.

“I remember standing on the steps of the hotel, and – you know when you see an old cowboy film and that tumbleweed rolls past on the ground? There was newspaper just floating around on the streets. It was so f**king weird.

“Everybody just backed off Manhattan because they didn’t know if it was an all-out thing or what. But I hope this Isis lot don’t get going. I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s in mankind to try to kill each other for one thing or another.

“And I think sooner or later one of these crazy f**kers is going to get a nuclear weapon or some f**king thing, and f**k a lot of people up. That’s in our nature. I hope it won’t happen, but it looks like it could happen if they get it.”

Osbourne also spoke about meeting then-president George W Bush as a guest of honor at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, branding him a “c**t* and adding: “No-one would come near me because I was off me f**king nuts.”

***UPDATE: OZZY posted this message tonight on Facebook:

“Firstly, I never spoke to ‘The Mail Online.’ Several quotes were pulled from another interview I did for The Shortlist that was posted earlier in the day and were taken out of context to create ‘The Mail Online’ story [about 9-11]. I apologize to anyone who may see these quotes and believe this is actually how I feel. Please know that I would never want to offend or hurt anyone–that was never or would ever be my intention. You would think that at my age I would finally realize that any conversation with a journalist can be twisted, reprinted and made into another story. It’s another life lesson learned.
