On May 31, legendary heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne signed his star on the "Walk Of Fame" at the Vegas Crocus City shopping mall in Moscow, Russia. Check out video footage below. Osbourne said that getting a star on Moscow's "Walk Of Fame" was "a great honor." Other celebrities who have stars on the Vegas shopping mall's "Walk Of Fame" include Robbie Williams, Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro, Mila Jovovich, Carlos Santana, Gloria Gaynor, John Cusack, Roy Jones Jr. and Antonio Banderas. Ozzy played two concerts in Russia — June 1 at the Olimpiyskiy in Moscow, and on June 3 at Ice Palace in St. Petersburg. He was joined at the gigs by his longtime collaborators Zakk Wylde (guitar), Rob "Blasko" Nicholson (bass), Tommy Clufetos (drums) and Adam Wakeman (keyboards). At a meeting with Russian fans and mass media prior to the Moscow gig, the BLACK SABBATH singer promised that this would not be his last visit to Russia.

The main North American leg of "No More Tours 2" will launch on August 30 at the PPL Center in Allentown, Pennsylvania and run through October 13 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
