Yep, you confirmed it. It is definitely Brad Gillis. I had to go to Wikipedia to look up Ozzy's former guitarists, so I don't think I get points for my answer, but hey, no one else was answering.
Yes, it's Brad! (Jack & Kelly are the singers, and Kelly wrote "Sister Christian" about his own sister.)
Remember all of the Ozzy videos MTV used to show from the live concert wtih Brad on guitar? That was such a big career boost for him.
Here's Brad then & now. (Still looking and sounding damn good! )

Many think this charismatic lead singer was named after a famous classical composer, but he was actually named after a rock musician. (One who was just inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, which I attended! )
This singer is a former model, has appeared on Broadway, and has starred in numerous reality shows.

Anyone know the musician who Sebastian was named after? Bas' dad was a big fan.

*drool*
Huh? What?
Oh yeah, we were talking about something here.
At any rate, that was an easy one. By the way, you can follow him on Twitter.
Yeah? Huh. I've never Twittered. (Well, except when I looked at this photo!!!)

I cheated again, I looked at the Songwriter's Hall of Fame: John Sebastian?
You are cheating! But at least you're playing, so I'll forgive you.

This beautiful drummer and his band came onto the heavy metal scene in the early 80's, and (almost) made it cool to "rock for the Rock", starting the trend of Christian metal bands who followed. None were ever as successful. (Or as beautiful.) (Oh wait, I said that part already...)

I don't know if this helps you, but they're one of my all-time favorite bands. Like in my top 3 favorite bands of all time.
They're from California.
Their first top 40 hit was in 1986.

You like a lot of bands.
I'm trying to cheat again...
Ah, I like a lot of bands, but how many do I like enough to put on my car's license plate? They're the biggest Christian metal band of all time! And an MTV request hour favorite! Guess I'm going back over 20 years. Well, that's depressing...

Oops, that came out wrong. It should've said I'm tempted to cheat again. Hm, I'm trying to remember if you ever mentioned having a personalized plate...
No, but we did discuss his beauty. Although the crazy penguin thought he looked like Paris Hilton!

Hm, hot rock and roll guy, that narrows it down! ;) Now, who would JR think looks like Paris Hilton? It's not one of the guys from Poison, is it?
Nope.
Ruby would probably know. Are you around, Ruby?
Hmm - How about this? This band's singer, who I often refer to as "the most beautiful man to walk the earth" as well as my favorite male singer of all time, is currently touring with Boston.

Okay, does this count as cheating? I searched the forum for any news you might have posted about Boston and hunted from there. Is it Robert Sweet?
Yes and yes.
Here is Robert in the 80's and in the 2000's.
Sigh....

I'm sure that was a fun one to get! Speaking of, the person in that pic looks a little familiar...
Oh yeah. I've met him many many times. But it never gets boring for me! Oh you mean that weird rockstar stalker chick?
OK, this one is really really easy, and you ALL should get this one!
"Who Am I?" Number 5: This metal queen first gained fame as a teenager, playing guitar in an all-girl band.
