She is the wife of famed and feared frontman of the heavy metal band, Black Sabbath Ozzy Ozbourne, who has her own brand of brass. Sharon Osbourne is one sassy lady, who isn’t afraid to speak her mind on any topic she chooses. Along with a diverse group of ladies on the CBS morning show The Talk, she conveys her opinion on today’s hot topics, celebrity gossip and every other issue one can think of on a daily basis. Also a spokeswoman for the Atkins Diet, Sharon hasn’t let anything slow her down in her life and wants to help others keep moving and shaking just like her. Mrs. Osbourne was nice enough to talk to our columnist/staff writer, Sari N. Kent, about what’s she’s been doing since leaving her gig as a judge on NBC’s hit competition/variety show America’s Got Talent, why she chose to be a spokeswoman for the Atkins Diet, how much she loves her gang of girls on The Talk and what upcoming projects she’s cooking up.

SNK: What’s it like working with Sarah Gilbert, Aisha Tyler, Sheryl Underwood and Julie Chen on The Talk?

SO: : I feel very blessed. It’s a very eclectic group of ladies and I’m blessed because we really do have a great talk everyday and it’s a really great job to have!

SNK: You’re in such great shape and are a spokeswomen for the Atkins diet, how did you decide to choose that weight loss plan?

SO: : I was coming up on my 60th birthday and I was overweight. Not drastically, but I was about 25 to 30 pounds over. I wasn’t feeling good, I was sluggish and slow and decided to get my life back. So, I joined up with Atkins. I mean where else can find a diet with such delicious dinners that have vegetables and some fruits. It’s a well-balanced diet that makes me want to move and get up everyday!

SNK: I’m a loyal fan of America’s Got Talent, and loved you when you were a judge. Do you miss it and do you keep in touch with Howie Mandel and/or Howard Stern?

SO: : I miss the show terribly. I haven’t watched since I left, but constantly talk to Howard Stern, Howie and Nick Cannon!

SNK: How’s your son, Jack, who was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2012 doing? My grandfather had MS and I have Lupus so I know firsthand about the rigors the disease can put you through and that his being on Dancing with the Stars and going so far in the competition was a real inspiration. So, how is he doing?

SO: : He’s doing really well, thank you so much for asking. He also has to watch everything he eats and does in his life. He’s on the Atkins Diet with me and he works out and feels healthier and stronger every day.

SNK: Are there any upcoming projects of yours that you would like to mention?

SO: : I’m working on a show with Ozzy for Vegas. It’s a Halloween themed project. That’s how long it takes to plan these things in Vegas.

SNK: Thank you so much for speaking with me today.

SO: : Your welcome and by the way, I just want to encourage everyone who needs to make a change in their lives to go Atkins.com and get their free Starter Kit!
