Donny & Marie Osmond reunite in Las Vegas

Siblings Donny and Marie Osmond will reunite for a Las Vegas variety show beginning Sept. 9.

The stars of the former "Donny & Marie" variety show will perform Tuesday-Saturday for 26 weeks at the Flamingo Las Vegas hotel and casino. According to a hotel official, the 90-minute performances will be spread over an 8-month period.

The show is being billed as "a greatest-hits multimedia spectacle on a custom stage with multiple video screens and a cast of dancers," according to the AP. Tickets go on sale Monday and range in price from $85-$115.

"My version of a variety show has been what Vegas has known thus far," said comedian and impressionist Danny Gans, a Las Vegas mainstay who will co-present the show with Chip Lightman of GansLight Entertainment. "What we have now is a true variety show which conveys the real essence of America and the country's love of homegrown talent."

The Osmonds are no strangers to the Las Vegas stage. In the 1970s, the entire musical family shared a marquee with Elvis Presley at the Old International hotel, now the Las Vegas Hilton.

"Donny and Marie are timeless entertainers and cultural icons," said Don Marrandino, president of the Flamingo Las Vegas.

Toni Braxton was the latest act at the Flamingo. "Toni Braxton: Revealed" was set to end a two-year run in August, but went on hiatus after the singer was hospitalized for chest pain April 7. She is scheduled to resume May 6.

Marie Osmond's son heads to rehab

Marie Osmond's son, Michael, is the latest celebrity to head off to rehab. But this kid is just sixteen years old! Marie confirmed the news after Larry King asked her about it during a taping of “Larry King Live” on Wednesday afternoon, scheduled to air Wednesday night.
She told Larry King her son entered rehab last week.

The Dancing with the Stars performer said, “My son Michael is an amazing young man, shown through his courage in facing his issues. As his mother, I couldn’t be more proud of him. The press and public have always been kind and gracious in the past and I know they will continue to respect our privacy during this time.”

Marie Osmond Hits the Floor!

Marie Osmond lost her breath and passed out after her routine on the ABC hit show, "Dancing with the Stars." Thankfully, she was okay and no harm was done! As the camera zoomed out to show Osmond splayed out on the dance floor, the program quickly cut to commercial. Osmond, who turned 48 on Oct. 13, explained away the incident, saying on-air with a giggle that "once in awhile that happens to me when I get winded. I stop breathing."
