Marie Osmond was suppose to have a syndicated talk show this fall on TV, but Broadcasting and Cable is reporting that due to these economic times the show is no longer happening. Marie was going to film the show in Vegas where she is currently doing a live stage show with her brother Donny Osmond.
“I want to express my deep appreciation for the faithful support and dedication shown by the numerous stations,” said Osmond, who returned to the public spotlight after a popular run on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. “It was my sincere desire to return their enthusiastic responses by producing an exceptional talk show for their fall schedules; produced with the high quality that is associated with the Marie Osmond brand for over four decades. This project, under proper conditions, still remains a strong passion of mine.”
I wonder if Donny was doing the show with her if it would’ve been a go this fall. While I like both of them solo, they are much better as a pair!
BTW the news is not all bad for her, KVVU is reporting that Donny & Marie was extended for 2 more years and they will playing at The Flamingo until 2012.
Marie Osmond was signing her dolls when Richie Sambora who was in Vegas for a wedding decided to stop by and her see her according to Norm Clarke. Looking at the two of them together, don't you think they make a cute couple? Afterall she is a little bit Country and he is a little bit Rock'n'Roll. Can you imagine her brining him home for An Osmond Family Christmas?
Donny Osmond did an interview with Bonnie Hunt and he let it slip he is ready to follow in his sister's fainting shows and do Dancing with the Stars.
Bonnie speaks with Marie about the fun she had competing on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” and asks Donny if he would ever consider doing the show. Donny looks at Marie and smiles and says, “Well I guess I am making an announcement. I’ll say I am seriously considering doing it, let’s put it that way.”
He laughs, “I guess I just let the cat out of the bag!”
He continues, “I can’t let my sister upstage me. Besides, who do you think taught her how to dance?”
“That not fair!” counters Marie. “The men do half the work!”
“That’s why I’m doing it, baby!” Donny laughs. “It is going to be very difficult because I am going to be doing Vegas on top of doing ‘Dancing with the Stars.’”
Bonnie tells him, “I think it is going to be fabulous to watch you on the show Donny. We’re gonna love it. You are a natural born performer.”
I hope he is really doing the show because at least I would have someone to vote and root for!
I just loved Donny and Marie Osmond’s music medley on GMA that I had to share it with y’all.
BTW America’s favorite brother and sister act are taking on Vegas for several months starting next month at the Flamingo, so go and see Donny and Marie do what do best live, I am know I am considering breaking my Vegas ban to see them.
Marie Osmond loves her bigger brother so much she immortalized him as doll in her collection!!! And he loves her so much he actually did a photoshoot with his mini-me for her! Seriously Donny was as cute as his doll in that behind-the-scenes video!
For those of you who are big Donny fans (like me!) you can buy his doll autographed by him at Marie Osmond’s Doll.
BTW here is the picture that made the final cut from that photoshoot!
