Ozzie Osbourne has had his entire genome sequenced. You can read about it here. Apparently, among many other bizarre claims, is one to the effect that he is descended from Neanderthals.
Quote:
He’s most tickled about the discovery that he had less Neanderthal in him than George Church, the Harvard professor and co-founder of Knome. And that there was Neanderthal-human interbreeding.
I'm not surprised, since there's a good chance we've all got a bit of neanderthal in us.

A gentleman from the Max Planck Institute has reconstructed (or claimed to) the Neanderthal genome, and says that modern humans have from 1% to 4% Neanderthal DNA.
