Ozzy Osbourne's doctors have given him the go-ahead to return to the stage as scheduled on Nov. 29 in Grand Forks, N.D. Osbourne postponed 10 dates on his Merry Mayhem tour (which also features Rob Zombie) after he fell and fractured his leg while exiting the shower.

Enrique Iglesias will perform his hit single "Hero" during halftime of the Detroit Lions' Thanksgiving game at the Pontiac Silverdome. Gospel singer Bebe Winans will also perform at the event.
Former Beach Boys collaborator Van Dyke Parks orchestrated three tracks for Silverchair's forthcoming album, which is expected to hit stores early next year, according to the band's official website.
Tori Amos, Collective Soul and Poe have left Atlantic Records, Billboard Bulletin reported. The moves come amid an executive shake-up at the label.
A sold-out Status Quo concert was canceled in the U.K. on Monday (11/12) because guitarist Rick Parfitt's arm seized up. According to U.K. press reports, Parfitt at first believed he was having a heart attack, but a visit to the doctor revealed that he was suffering from repetitive strain injury.
The daughter of former Beatle Ringo Starr is currently in a New England hospital facing a second battle with brain cancer. Fashion designer Lee Starkey, 31, had her initial brain surgery at an American hospital six years ago.
Starr's former bandmate George Harrison is also afflicted with cancer.
