Donnie And Marie Osmond Tickets

She's a little bit country, he's a little bit rock and roll, and together they've been adorable and charming family entertainment for over forty years. Their current Vegas show is the first time the famous brother and sister have performed their variety act onstage together in nearly thirty years, and after all this time, they're still perfect family entertainment.

The Osmonds: We Are Family

The Osmonds were a large family of eight brothers, and Marie was the only sister. She began singing and dancing when she was three, and Donny first performed on The Andy Williams Show when he was five, singing 'You Are My Sunshine.'

The Osmond Brothers often performed on The Andy Williams Show (they were spotted performing in Disneyland), and eventually Marie also appeared on the program, singing her single 'Paper Roses,' which was a hit on the pop and country charts, and made Marie one of the youngest singers to have a hit on the charts. Marie then also sang two duets with Donny, 'I'm Leaving It All Up to You,' and 'Morning Side of the Mountain.'

The Donny and Marie Show

After seeing them perform on The Mike Douglas Show, ABC gave Donny and Marie their own variety show in 1976, which ran for three years and made Donny and Marie the youngest performers to host a prime time show. In 1998, they also hosted their own daytime talk show for two seasons.

Donnie was one of the cutest teen idols of the '70's, a heart-throb to millions of love-sick girls, and hits like 'Puppy Love,' 'Go Away Little Girl,' and 'Sweet and Innocent' cemented that status throughout most fo the decade.

Once Donny's teen idol status started booming, the family convinced Marie to give professional performing a try. She had success with Donny, and as a solo artist. After leaving the business for a spell, she had a comeback country hit single with 'Meet Me In Montana.'

Donny also had a comeback with the hit single, 'Soldier of Love,' in the late eighties, and he even did a heavy metal cover of 'Stayin' Alive' with Frank Zappa's son Dweezil (again, she's a little bit country, he's a little bit rock n' roll'¦).

Donnie and Marie Reunited

For their Vegas variety show, Donny and Marie perform together and have solo segments during the show as well. Things have certainly changed since their show on ABC in the '70's, but Donnie and Marie still do a traditional variety show their way.

'What Marie and I have tried to accomplish here is bring back a little bit of traditional Vegas where it's not just production, but there's personality,' Donny recently said. 'There are times were we just sit down and sing and try to give them what we were raised on '“ and that is variety.'

Donny also knew that he and Marie would reunite one day, and Vegas seemed the perfect venue. Donny wanted the traditional Vegas seating where 'it's intimate enough, it's small enough, yet large enough to support a larger show. It was a perfect fit.'

Donnie and Marie's brand of entertainment is as wholesome, good natured, and fun as it was back in the days of their variety TV show, and if you're looking for the right show for your family, look no further than Donnie and Marie.
