Ozzy Osbourne has admitted to having a face lift.

The 56-year-old rocker had previously denied rumours he'd had plastic surgery, saying he owed his looks to giving up drink, drugs and his rock 'n' roll lifestyle.

But the singer has now confessed: "I've had a face job and a new nose.''

The former Black Sabbath star also revealed how the procedure had been great for his self-esteem, saying: "It boosted my confidence no end.''

Ozzy's wife Sharon is also no stranger to plastic surgery, admitting to spending £120,000 on operations.

In January, the reality TV star revealed she went under the knife to correct her down-pointing nipples.

She said at the time: "They're now pointing in the direction I want and everything's looking up.''

However, Ozzy insists he didn't persuade his wife to have cosmetic surgery, saying he loved her for who she is.

He is quoted by Britain's The Sun newspaper as saying: "I'd love Sharon if she was the size of ten houses or three twigs. I love her, the soul, the person.''
