Shut Up is the debut studio album by British singer-songwriter Kelly Osbourne. The album is a punk-rock/pop album, released by Epic Records. Released on 26 November 2002, the album was met with a mixed reception from music critics, however, the album was met with disappointing sales which led to her consequent drop from Epic Records. Shut Up was later re-released in 2003 as Changes, featuring her and her father Ozzy's cover of the Black Sabbath song of the same name. The album features a cover of Madonna's song "Papa Don't Preach".

Reception

Shut Up received mixed reviews by critics. People magazine said "it takes a whole lot more than the right pedigree and the right haircut to make credible punk rock." The album had sold 155,000 copies in the U.S by 11 September 2003, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
