May 23 (UPI) -- Ozzy Osbourne's channel on Sirius XM, Ozzy's Boneyard, is celebrating the 50th anniversary of English metal band Motörhead with a weekend-long special.
Ozzy's Boneyard is airing a special starting Friday and lasting through Memorial Day weekend looking back at Motörhead's career and the life of front man Lemmy Kilmister, who died in 2015.
The special includes new interviews with surviving band members Mikkey Dee and Phil Campbell, as well as plenty of Motörhead music and "maybe a surprise from Ozzy."
Sirius XM is currently in the midst of a "free listening" event, allowing all enabled devices to listen to digital radio stations without a subscription through June 2.
Motörhead previously announced the band's anniversary will also feature the release of The Manticore Tapes, featuring 11 unreleased recordings from the band's first studio session in 1976. The album is scheduled for release June 27.

Stephen A. Smith signs deal with SiriusXM for radio shows on sports, current events
Stephen A. Smith is expanding his broadcasting portfolio beyond ESPN — and he won't be talking about just sports. The satellite radio network SiriusXM said Wednesday that it has signed Smith to produce and appear on two new shows. One is a daily sports talk show that will appear on SiriusXM's Mad Dog Sports Radio, the channel created by talk radio personality Chris Russo. Smith will also create a weekly show featuring current events, pop culture and social commentary. Both programs will debut in September, SiriusXM said. Except to say that it is a multi-year deal, terms were not disclosed. 'September can't come soon enough,' Smith said. 'It's been a long time since I've been in radio, especially going back and forth with the callers. Can't wait to get re-started.' The deal does not affect Smith's contract with ESPN, where he appears on 'First Take.' Smith's popularity with young men has led to talk that he could be a political candidate some day, and the commentator has made media appearances lately where the discussions have gone beyond sports. He wrote a book, 'Straight Shooter: A Memoir of Second Chances and First Takes,' in 2023.

Pop singer Jessie J says she has been diagnosed with early breast cancer
NEW YORK (AP) — The English pop singer Jessie J says she has been diagnosed with breast cancer and will undergo surgery after her performance at the London music festival Capital's Summertime Ball next weekend. Jessie J, 37, shared the news in an Instagram video on Wednesday. 'I was diagnosed with early breast cancer,' she said in the clip. 'Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding onto the word 'early'." 'It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job. I am going to disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive (expletive) and more music.' The annual Summertime Ball will be held at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, June 15. She told her social media audience that she felt compelled to share her diagnosis. 'I just wanted to be open and share it,' she said. 'One, because, selfishly, I do not talk about it enough. I'm not processing it because I'm working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories. I'm an open book. It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse – that's the bit that kills me.' The Grammy-nominated Jessie J has long been celebrated for her robust soprano and R&B-informed pop hits, like the 2014 collaboration with Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande, 'Bang Bang,' and 2011's 'Domino.' She has released five albums across her career, most recently, 2018's Christmas album, 'This Christmas Day.' She has been releasing new music in 2025, including the singles 'Living My Best Life' and 'No Secrets.' A new album is expected later this year. She has a son, Sky Safir Cornish Colman, born in 2023. A representative for Jessie J did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' request for comment.
