Throughout his illustrious career, Donny has earned 33 gold records; selling more than 100 million Albums and becoming a worldwide music legend. He has made history by celebrating more than five decades in show business with the release of his 61st album, “One Night Only,” a live album accompanied by a DVD of his sold-out UK tour, in January 2017. Today, Donny performs at the Flamingo Las Vegas with his sister Marie. The show began in September 2008 and was originally scheduled to run for six weeks. The audience response was so overwhelming that the Flamingo renamed their showroom, “The Donny & Marie Showroom.” The long-running show based on the famed Las Vegas Strip is now headed into an unprecedented tenth year at the Caesar’s-owned property. The Donny and Marie show has received many accolades during their run. They've been awarded “Best Show,” "Best Singer,” "Best Band," and "Best Dancers” throughout the years according to the Las Vegas Review Journal. For more information, visit Donny.com. ABOUT MARIE OSMOND Beginning with her national debut at age three on “The Andy Williams Show,” Marie has proven to be a resilient talent with a magnetic presence recognized across generations. Entertaining for five continuous decades is a rare accomplishment, achieved by very few women. Marie recorded “Paper Roses” at age 12, making history as the youngest country female to have her debut record top No. 1 on the charts, followed by two Grammy nominations. She still holds the record as the youngest female host of a national television variety show, “The Donny & Marie Show” (1976-81) – “appointment television” for millions of viewers worldwide. She has recorded more than 35 albums and has numerous gold records and hit songs, including a CMA “Vocal Duo of the Year” Award for “Meet Me In Montana.” Marie's 2010 first inspirational album titled “I Can Do This”, was an iTunes top 10 listing after she performed “Pie Jesu” on “Oprah.” Donny and Marie’s single “A Beautiful Life” reached No. 1 in 2012. Beckoned to the Broadway stage in the mid-90s, Marie mastered a new style of singing, to which she received outstanding reviews – starring in Rogers and Hammerstein’s “The Sound of Music” and “The King and I” on national and international tours. Marie was also a finalist on season five of “Dancing with the Stars,” watched by 25 million people. In May 2016, Marie released her tenth album, “Music is Medicine,” marking her return to the country charts for the first time since the mid-80s. The album was released through Marie’s own label, Oliveme LLC. The album features notable guest artists such as Olivia Newton-John, Diamond Rio, SisQó (Dru Hill), John Rich (Big & Rich), Marty Roe, and Alex Boyé.
