Paul McCartney has disappointed pal Ozzy Osbourne by declining an opportunity to duet with the rocker at the 2008 Brit Awards. The former Black Sabbath singer - who will co-host the ceremony with his wife/manager Sharon - was ecstatic at the prospect of fulfilling his lifelong dream of sharing the stage with the former Beatle.

But McCartney, 65, has since decided to perform a simple solo set instead.

He says, “You can either go for something wow or just do a couple of hits - I’ve opted for the latter. I’m quite happy to be just doing stuff that I hope the audience will like.”

He adds, “This year will be outstanding - because Ozzy is presenting.”

The annual awards ceremony will take place in London on February 20.
