In one all-new "Bubble Guppies" episode, the English heavy metal vocalist, songwriter, and television personality Ozzy Osbourne is set to voice the character Sid Fishy, a "rock and roll fish who loves being rotten".
Unlike the more wholesome residents of underwater city Bubbletucky, Sid Fishy, pictured above, sports a red mohawk, eyebrow and fin rings, a gold tooth and slime spray to wreak havoc on unsuspecting guppies. The Prince of Darkness tells Rolling Stone he was drawn to the character because "I've always smelled a bit fishy".
When asked to elaborate on the contents of Fishy's container, a representative for the show replied, "The green liquid is Sid Fishy's 'stink sauce' made up of different smells such as stinky socks and rotten eggs. He wants to use the stink sauce to cover Big Bubble City and all its citizens to make them stinky." It is unclear which characters, including Mr. Grouper, Mr. Grumpfish and any of the residents of the Bubbletucky Zoo, will be affected.
In a separate episode, the American actor, drag queen, model, author, and recording artist RuPaul ("RuPaul's Drag Race") will also star as RuPearl, a "charismatic snail that's part ringside boxing announcer and part fashionista". Both of their episodes will premiere on Nickelodeon in 2015.
Osbourne said he was attracted to the role because of his 2-year-old granddaughter Pearl. "The whole reason I did the show was for Pearl," said Ozzy. "She has Nick Jr. on 24/7. I can't wait to see her reaction when she hears my voice come from Sid Fishy's mouth.
In related Nickelodeon Guest Star news, Contactmusic.com is reporting that TNA Superstar Bully Ray recently filmed a guest part in the hit Nick At Nite sitcom "See Dad Run". Although the 42-year-old grappler is remaining tight-lipped on his part, he was thrilled to get to work with lead actor Scott Baio ("Happy Days", "Bugsy Malone"), "Pretty Woman" director Garry Marshall and his filmmaker son Scott Marshall on the comedy series.
Bully - who can be seen competing with the other stars of TNA every week on "IMPACT Wrestling" every week on Challenge TV in the UK and Spike in the US - revealed: "I just did a television show for Nickelodeon. The show is called "See Dad Run" and it stars Scott Baio and it's on nick@nite. So I did an episode with him and it went really well and I had an extremely positive experience out there in Hollywood, I was there about a week working at Paramount Studios, I got to work with Scott Marshall and Garry Marshall, and I got to work on the same set as "Happy Days". It was a tremendously positive experience."
