Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne

Birth Dates: His: December 3, 1948, Hers: October 10, 1952

Age Difference: 4 years

Their Story: If you haven't seen this "Behind the Music," it's high time you got to know the *&@!%ing Prince of Darkness a little better. Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, stars of the wildly popular true-life show The Osbournes, have become the 21st century's answer to Ozzie and Harriet. Recently celebrating 20 years of marriage (and by celebrity standards, that's an even more amazing feat), Ozzy and Sharon met when her father, Don Arden, was the manager for Ozzy's heavy metal band, Black Sabbath. Truckloads of drugs and alcohol (and one failed marriage for Ozzy) later, Sharon, quite literally, picked the singer up off the floor of his apartment and forced him to start cleaning up his act. Through rehab, dove and bat beheadings, and numerous Ozzfest tours, Sharon and Ozzy have proven that even rock stars know how to take out the garbage -- happily.

Their Nuptials: Ozzy and Sharon were married on a beach in Hawaii on July 4, 1982. Soon after, the crucifix-obsessed couple bought out Ozzy's contract from Sharon's father, and she took over the management duties. With a well documented ball-buster persona, she continues to negotiate million dollar deals for her family.

Their Offspring: In addition to two children from Ozzy's previous marriage to Thelma Reilly, Ozzy and Sharon have three children of their own: Aimee (September 2, 1983), Kelly (October 27, 1984) and Jack (November 8, 1985). While Aimee decided against appearing in The Osbournes, Kelly and Jack, who are both involved in the music industry, seem to relish the attention. Kelly has just released her first single, a rocked-out, glitzy cover of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach."

What They Have to Say: Ozzy told People, "She's not allowed to die before me. I couldn't live without her."
