From Launch.com:
Ozzy Osbourne is set to meet with President George W. Bush informally at the Washington Correspondents Dinner on May 4. The dinner is traditionally attended by the president, members of his cabinet, members of Congress, and members of the Washington D.C. press corps.
A spokesperson for Ozzy told LAUNCH that the rocker hasn't been officially invited to the White House by the president, although he will most likely meet Bush and visit the White House while he's in Washington D.C. for the dinner. He was invited to the event by a member of the press.
He told England's Express newspaper, "I thought I'd be on a wanted poster on the wall, not invited to his place to tea." Osbourne hasn't exactly been a favorite of the government. He was one of the artists scrutinized in the '80s by the P.M.R.C. (Parental Music Resource Committee), which was led by Al Gore's wife Tipper. He also was arrested for urinating on an American landmark--the Alamo in Bush's home state of Texas.
