Hellraiser Ozzy Osbourne became hooked on cocaine the moment he first tried it - because he thought he'd found the meaning of life.

The Black Sabbath frontman endured a long battle with drink and drugs after his rock 'n' roll lifestyle turned into a nightmare world of addiction.

He admits he would buy "kilos" of heroin and coke at a time - but insists the most addictive drug he's ever tried is tobacco.

The Paranoid hitmaker tells British newspaper the Daily Telegraph, "Thefirst time I tried cocaine, I remember thinking, 'I've found the meaning of life!' But then I loved morphine and everything else too. At my worst, I was buying kilos of the stuff every week. "That said, by far the most addictive thing I've ever put in my body istobacco.

By the end, I was chewing the gum, smoking the fake cigarettes,wearing the patches, and smoking 20 a day.

I tried cigars but within a week I was smoking 30 Cohibas a day, and inhaling. Now I don't do anything any more.
