Aimée Rachel Osbourne (born 2 September 1983) is an English-American actress and musician. She is the eldest daughter of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne. While her siblings Jack and Kelly achieved pop culture fame for appearing in the family’s MTV reality series The Osbournes, the more private Aimée declined to appear on the show, feeling that doing so would typecast her and affect her musical career. She has expressed discomfort with some of her parents’ behavior on television.
Career
In 1991, Osbourne appeared as a child in some videos and documentaries relating to her father’s musical career, and appeared on The Howard Stern Show in 1998, but did not reach mainstream acting success until being cast in MTV’s 2003 adaptation of Wuthering Heights. She later provided voiceover work in the 2014 animated film Postman Pat: The Movie.
Around 2010, she began recording and releasing music under the project name ARO (her initials). ARO, in contrast to her father’s heavy metal, has been described as synth pop, and is influenced by Kate Bush and Portishead, as well as PJ Harvey and Massive Attack. She has appeared in her own music videos, and her video for “Raining Gold” received 2 million hits in just two months.
ARO so far have performed only 3 live shows. Union Pool, Brooklyn on April 1 2015, Mercury Lounge, NYC on April 2 2015 and The Echo, Los Angeles on February 9, 2016.
In 2016 after having releasing 3 songs “Raining Gold”, “I Can Change” and “Cocaine Style”, updates on the project started to become few and far between. On October 17 2018 ARO announced on their official Instagram page that an EP was in the works thanking the fans for their patience. ARO teased new material on Instagram on December 5 2018 with a snippet of a song called “Beats of My Heart”. As of 2020 neither the EP or the single have been released and no new updates regarding the band had been released which suggests the band was either on hiatus or broken up.
On February 13 2020 ARO posted their first update in over a year stating “Thank you all so much for your interest. Not long to go now“. The post also revealed the debut album will be released on indie record label “Makerecords”.
Personal Life
Her maternal grandfather was Don Arden (Harry Levy), an English music manager.
