Shut Up is the debut album of Kelly Osbourne. After its failure and her consequent drop from Epic Records, the album was re-released in 2003 as Changes, featuring her and her father Ozzy's cover of the Black Sabbath song "Changes". The album is also known for the cover of the classic Madonna's song, Papa Don't Preach.
