Donny Osmond to put on his 'Dancing' shoes?

Nov 21, 2007, 10:09 AM | by Shirley Halperin

Categories: Television, TV Biz

Between cheering his kid sister from the sidelines and interviewing contestants as Entertainment Tonight's special correspondent, Donny Osmond has been spending an awful lot of time on the Dancing with the Stars stage. And with sister Marie now claiming a spot on next week's finals, it should come as little surprise that Donny himself is considering signing up for the competition's sixth go-round, which kicks off next March. "They've talked to him about it," said a jubilant — and 30 pounds lighter — Marie following her semifinals victory Tuesday night. "He keeps going back and forth. But he could so do it. He's danced way more than I have, and he'd be so fun, too."

Irena Mon, Sep 8, 2008 at 12:25 AM EST

I think Donny would be great.NO! Let me rephrase that. I know he would be great! Donny hope to see you on any show in the near future. I also would like to say to DONNY IF THIS DOES EVER GET TO YOU. I was going through a very hard time and listening to all your early fabulous stuff just brought me back to my youth and my spirits totally picked up.THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS!Don't get me wrong I love your new music as well. Best wishes to you your beautiful wife and just the whole Osmond family. Irena p.s.The 1st ALBUM I ever bought in my life was yours. Thank you for just being you.You and your family are a true inspiration on how I believe family,friends and just the world in general should be.(LIVE,LOVE,LAUGH) That's what it's all about well unless you p_ss me off. That's a whole different Irena. lol Again God Bless!

Yes... I would love to see Donny on DWTS. i think it would be so cool.. love donny and marie..

CHRISTINE Sat, Mar 8, 2008 at 04:31 PM EST

YES YES YES I VOTE FOR ANY OF THE OSMONDS ON DANCING WITH STARS.

vik Thu, Mar 6, 2008 at 10:40 PM EST

No offense, or maybe YES there is. For the two weeks Donny was on ET I felt they should have changed the name to the "Donny Osmond with a little bit of the Entertainment Tonight Show" I got sick of it! I stopped watching ET and the Insider. It was Donny, Donny, Donny and Marie, Marie and the Osmonds show. Really it was rediculous! Good luck to him and his family but please use the appropriate plateform/showcase to promote you and your families upcomming attractions and keep your sound bites on these entertainment shows the normal 2-4 minutes.

The Osmonds are the most annoying and irritating had been, over the hill celebrity!!! Everytime they're on tv peddling their (lack of) fame, i'll flip the channel.

HHH Sat, Dec 8, 2007 at 04:43 AM EST

I like online shopping and from last couple of months I have saved lots of bucks in shopping of shoes, clothings and apparels from Fashion Bug store at CouponAlbum...!!

Chris Tue, Dec 4, 2007 at 01:17 AM EST

Would love to see Donny dance. He is a fabulous dancer outside his glorious voice! Know him from days gone by and he could out do most of what we have seen.

beachqueen Thu, Nov 29, 2007 at 11:24 PM EST

Donny should SO do Dancing with the Stars - if he wife Debbie will let himn. He would be awesome and would probably win it. LOVE YOU DONNY and PUPPY LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sandi Wynter Thu, Nov 29, 2007 at 06:41 PM EST

ABSOLUTELY no more Osmonds. I am so sick of hearing about them. She must have the busiest PR machine in the business and so little talent. That last night she
looked like a drunk over-the-
hill hooker with way too much
make-up on. What a mess--this
heifer needs psychiatric help! He is beyond obnoxious
and talentless as well. Just make them all disappear.

Thu, Nov 29, 2007 at 05:28 PM EST

I thought the purpose of DWTS was to take a non-dancer and teach them to dance!!!

Louise Thu, Nov 29, 2007 at 04:44 PM EST

My mum is huge donny fan since she was little so i know she would love to see him on it and i must admit i've seen him in concert twice with her and he's an excellent performer so i'd probably watch it to if he was on it.

Horse N. Buggy Thu, Nov 29, 2007 at 02:07 PM EST

I have never watched this show. But I would probably tune in to see Donnie Osmond. He will always be cool in my book for dancing in the background of Weird Al's "White and Nerdy" video. He was a scream! You gotta love someone who can make fun of their own squeaky-clean image.

Helen Thu, Nov 29, 2007 at 02:40 AM EST

It was the First whole season of dancing with the stars I've watched..I enjoyed seeing how each star improved through out the contest.I really enjoyed Marie Osmond..She not only lost 30 lbs (good For Her)..but loved her way of overcoming a Great lss and continued to do her best..Very good Show this year.

Minnesota Mama Thu, Nov 29, 2007 at 12:44 AM EST

If you have the kind of time and dedication these people put in to entertaining us and going for that ugly little ball, I say let him dance, let anyone that has the guts to get up there and work that hard give it a shot - the unknown author above is exactly right - if you dont' like him dont vote for him - heck don't even watch the show! ha ha.

leslie Wed, Nov 28, 2007 at 06:14 PM EST

DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD!

And....wonder if Donnie's feet could
go as fast as his fat mouth. Do we
really want these two controlling TV
for another season?

sisi Wed, Nov 28, 2007 at 05:12 PM EST

I love the Osmond, they are wonderful

Wed, Nov 28, 2007 at 11:51 AM EST

I think any star that want's to dance should (including Donny). If you don't like him or her vote for someone else. Look how long Jerry Springer lasted due to his fan base. This is a popularity contest. Let them DANCE!!!!

Rachel Wed, Nov 28, 2007 at 10:20 AM EST

i grew up with the Osmaonds they were lot of fun to watch. I woudn't mind Donny at all. They are a real family with real problems.

Lin Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 11:50 PM EST

Lisa, that is not true! Marie was NOT the only one to thank her friends. Helio thanked them profusely

Patsy Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 06:35 PM EST

DWTS would be making a huge mistake bringing another Osmond on to dance. They are self promoting, and annoying.

annie lamb Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 04:26 PM EST

No, NOT Donnie, PLEASE. I think the world is sick sick sick of the Osmonds. Why did he get to stick his face in the mix at all ? ? ? THE OSMONDS BLOW THEIR OWN HORN TOO TOO MUCH.

Ed Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 03:57 PM EST

Too many teeth make me nervous!

Jo Ann Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 11:50 AM EST

I L O V E H E L I O. I have never participated in DWTS chats and phone-ins before, but his dance last night was the winner.... It took me 15 minutes of hitting the replay button to vote for him. I LOVE HELIO.

MARY Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 11:32 AM EST

It really displeases me to see the negative comments keep coming toward Marie Osmond. It is not her fault people are voting for her. She is in an embarressing position. She may not be the best dancer on the show, but she is certainly the best performer!

Denny Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 11:20 AM EST

If Donny Osmond is on DWTS then they should also recruit Danny Bonaduce to be a contestant. Danny would knock Donny out (one way or another) and that would be something to watch!

MarieW Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 10:54 AM EST

I bet all of you who are dissing Marie are under 40! I like her and give her credit for trying this. I hope she wins!

lisa Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 10:35 AM EST

I refuse to watch DWTS if Donny is on Marie is obnoxious and pretensious and loud and not even a good dancer.Who is she to back talk the judges?

Marilyn Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 10:04 AM EST

Pleeeeease, No more Osmonds!!!! I can't take it again!!!!

Debra Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 07:50 AM EST

Donny may be even more obnoxious than Marie and I am so tired of her.

anita Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 01:28 AM EST

I still love the sexy Donny Osmond and I would love to see him on the show! He has a huge fan base and women follow his talents all over the country, I bet he could win!!!

hummingbird Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 01:13 AM EST

This season's contestants have been some of the best combined talent ever. And although some do not like the fact that one of the oldest contestants is in the last three, I am thinking that Marie Osmond is still far better than some who have ended up in the semi finals of other seasons although to be fair I did not care for her choice of free style. It was defineatly not her best. Let's face it, this year has been awesome to watch. I love to see the styles, the personalities and the creativity in the choreography and dancing. I am also amazed at how far everyone has come in this season. In my opinion, it is something to see people like Jenny, Jane and Cameron, Marie and Helio come out and show us what they can do and what they are made of. It is great entertainment. A lot of them, have put in some amazing time and effort to participate in this season. Bravo for all who participated and especially those in the last four shows. Bravo! I look forward season six no matter who wins.

Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 12:57 AM EST

OSMONDS HAVE DONE THERE YEARS IN THE LIME LIGHT LEAVE THEM REST....GET NEW EXCITEMENT AND TALENTS!!

Lorie Bajala Mon, Nov 26, 2007 at 09:40 PM EST

I'm one of the fans of the Osmonds but I don't really vote for them. I just want to be fair to the best dancer at all. We should not talked so much against the Osmonds. If you don't vote for them that's fine, please don't write an awful message. Nobody is perfect. To hurt people is not immportant in life. Better write a nice message than to hurt them. They have also feelings as a human being. Hope this is the message for those who would like hurt people

Brent Mon, Nov 26, 2007 at 09:24 PM EST

Please, not Donny too. As well, why not have the judges vote actually mean something (ie, 70% of the final score). That way, the best dancers make it to the finals.

Fan from Wisconsin Mon, Nov 26, 2007 at 06:41 PM EST

No More Osmonds! Please! Next season I think the judges vote should be worth 75% and the viewers vote 25%. Also, I don't think viewers should be able to vote until after the show, they should be voting for the best dancer, not their favorite celebrity. And then open it up for at least 2 hours.

Mon, Nov 26, 2007 at 03:03 PM EST

I want to know why there are three finalists on the last show when there use to be only two?

Also, I strongly feel there should be more time to vote at the end of the show (at least one hour, not 30 minutes) to vote for the dancers. The viewers voting is very important as well as the what the judges say.

Jean Mon, Nov 26, 2007 at 02:43 PM EST

I think an entire show made up of members of former family groups would be a hoot. In addition to the Jackson 5 (as another poster mentioned) how about getting a Lennon or McGuire or Pointer sister out of mothballs to be the new "oldest"? Either that or former Mouseketeers. Bobby Burgess went on to dance for Lawrence Welk - that's another whole gold mine of talent!

CalCollegeGal Mon, Nov 26, 2007 at 01:21 PM EST

The only reason I've watched the show this season is to watch the fantastic dancing of Helio and Julianne. I have barely tolerated the train wreck that is Marie Osmond and there's no way I would watch any future seasons if any other Osmonds were featured!

Can't stand Donnie Mon, Nov 26, 2007 at 07:47 AM EST

I do not want to see those odd osmonds another season. I am a big fan of dsw. I will not watch dws if DONNIE is on!

Lisa Sun, Nov 25, 2007 at 10:04 PM EST

I LOVE THE OSMONDS! I have been a fan since the 70's. They are a clean cut, fun loving and religious family. Why do some of you have a problem with them? They have done nothing to you, so please just leave Marie and her family alone. They have been and continue to be such great role models and I must add that Marie was the only one to thank her fans when the final 3 were announced. As far as the comments about Marie being so happy when all this terrible stuff has happened, I say this: As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, we believe that through the trials and tribulations of life, we are to ENDURE TO THE END. I have had many tribulations in my own life and I too take comfort in the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. We endure to the end looking at the positives in our life and relying on Heavenly Father's love for us. Jesus suffered MUCH MORE than we, so we should bare our trials with a smile. I also think Donny would be GREAT on DWTS!!! GO MARIE LOVE YA

Belinda from Australia Sun, Nov 25, 2007 at 05:49 PM EST

I agree, no Donny next season! Maybe in a couple of seasons, but not directly after Marie. Don't get me wrong, I love the Osmonds, but think we have had a huge Osmond overload this season.

Ann Sun, Nov 25, 2007 at 04:02 PM EST

Marie might not be the "best" dancer but that's not the show. If we are supposed to pick the best dancers, then America wouldn't be voting, professional judges would. You vote for your "favorite" dancer and right now Marie and Helio make me smile when they entertain me with their dancing. I'm all for Donny in March. Just no more oversized basketball players, please.

Sally Sun, Nov 25, 2007 at 02:53 PM EST

With two divorces and 8 kids she's well on her way to messing up, (Twinkletoes) Marie is hardly my role model. I should be hers.

catherine Sat, Nov 24, 2007 at 08:03 PM EST

Why not see what Donny could pull off? He's probably had more formal dance training than Marie, having performed on variety shows since he was a tot. He looks great at nearly 50, still has a huge fan base, and would certainly bring the competitive fire that's needed. By March, Marie will be a memory and, don't kid yourself, LOTS of us would tune in to see Donny.

Claudia Sat, Nov 24, 2007 at 01:40 PM EST

No more Osmonds for a while, please! Marie has lasted far too long, even though she cannot dance. I can only imagine how Donnie dances...

Betty Killbuck Sat, Nov 24, 2007 at 01:23 PM EST

I don't like the fact that some of the dancers are dancers or semi-dancers by profession. The Cheetah Girl (forgot her name) is one example. Marie Osmond is another. She can't dance! And Donny all over the place trying to woo the judges and the tv audience is absurd. Show some of the other people's relatives for a change. We don't see much of them. You'd think this show is only Marie, right from the start. Unfair!!! I love Helio and Julieanne.

It Isn't important Sat, Nov 24, 2007 at 12:41 PM EST

You all need to look at the bigger picture, only few of you will ever get it!! As role models the Osmonds have endured far longer than most of you ever would have in their world. I have had the pleasure of meeting Marie and speaking with her at length. She is truly a class act,
something we should all aspire to be.
Look at yourselves before pointing fingers. Donny may just be a great contestant let's wait to judge until we see what he can do! When did it become a crime to have a great smile?

Sat, Nov 24, 2007 at 11:59 AM EST

I like Marie, this was her opportunity to do something without Donny. I can see her acting on shows like; touched by an Angel or Twice in a Lifetime. Marie is subtle and likable- adding Donny is too much-one at a time please. Let Marie have her own spotlight; people like her. And if Donny gets a chance to do something; let it be on his own.

Vickie-Val Sat, Nov 24, 2007 at 12:07 AM EST

I'd love to see Donny on DWTS (or anywhere else, for that matter). I loved the good ol' Donny & Marie variety show & their talk show as well. Did anyone complain when Lisa Rena's husband was on the season after her? And by the way, Donny apologized on-air to Rosie O. appearing in a dog costume to sing his "Puppy Love".
I'm looking forward to the broadcast in March of the 50 Yr. Osmond Family Celebration. :) !!

mary alice Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 10:13 PM EST

Margo, I couldn't agree with you more. I really enjoy watching Marie dance and I think it's wonderful that Donny and her other brothers support and love her so much. As for the over-exposure on ET, they do that all the time, so just don't watch.

Jen Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 08:18 PM EST

Hmmm.I don't see a clause that says "YOU MUST WATCH DWTS!" If you don't like who's on it don't watch it...that simple - No one is ever going to like all the contestants each season!

Kate Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 04:01 PM EST

Please no more Osmands. It's enoght that I had to put up with Marie all season, I can't take Donnie as well.

Jill Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 12:59 PM EST

Hey - How about getting a couple of the Jackson 5 brothers,someone from the Carney Wilson group, a Hanson brother and maybe one of the Olsen Twins to go up against Donny - Now that would be a show to watch!!

Honest Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 12:22 PM EST

Donnie and Marie both should go home and take care of their kids. It is enough that they were not around their kids because of show business. Go HOME..We have had enough! I do not want to be forced to look at them any longer!

Honest Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 12:22 PM EST

Yes - I would love to see him perform...

margo Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 09:00 AM EST

At age 65 I enjoy DWS. Having Donnie on would be great. For those who throw cold water on the idea, I say "Wait a minute". What better role models could the Osmonds have been? We watched Donnie & Marie as a family and loved it 20 yrs ago. Now that my daughters are grown up, they still enjoy the Osmonds. Donnie in Joseph...Dreamcoat was wonderful. My daughters went to see it, and waited to talk to Donnie. He took them back stage, took a pic with them, he couldn't have been kinder. Just think about it. What kind of role models do people want for the children? They may not be perfect, but who is? Too bad smiling faces are a negative to some. I don't get it.

Mickey Fri, Nov 23, 2007 at 08:22 AM EST

Donnie Osmond equals ego. He has jumped on his sisters dress tails and waltzed, cha cha-ed, and quick stepped into our homes uninvited. He is a self righteous know it all. Any one remember when he dissed Rosie about her weight. And that's when she was queen of nice.
As for Marie? "My marriage is ending but I'm still dancing. My dad died, but I'm still dancing. My son is in rehab, but I'm still dancing." I'ld like to see what meds she is on, that makes her so hyper-giggly. I'm just saying.

anonymous Thu, Nov 22, 2007 at 11:15 PM EST

Personally,I'd like to see Donny do it. I do think it is best though that he waits until next fall. I don't care if you all have issues with both of them....but have some respect for the fans....some of the stuff posted here is downright vile and degrading.

I would be so happy to have Donny on DWTS. I thought of that a long time ago because I know how well he can dance already. He is just a natural. I have followed his entire career and I think he would enjoy this show so much. Go for it Donny!

I'm with the folks on the OD of Osmonds!! I don't think I would watch if Donny came on next season. Too much drama, and I'd hate to see him faint or have a kid end up in rehab because of it.

Osmonds = Ratings. Just ask Oprah. And ratings are the Holy Grail to networks. Marie may not be the best dancer but she is a ratings goldmine.

Please NO!!!! I didn't like them in their variety show and I don't like them now! I admit, I flip the channel when she dances. I am also tired of her drama off the show. Why did she even make it to the final? I agree, she is the wrong person to be there, let alone having him in next year. Give us a break!!

Well, I'm certainly glad that Entertainment Tonight has gone with the Osmond theme and gotten off of the BABY DANNIELYNN kick every night, day in, day out!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! It's bad enough that Marie made it to the finals based on her baby boomer fan base when she is not close to being one of the best dancers, but we surely don't need her brother on there next season. I pray that Marie does not win as she is not the best dancer - go Mel B - coolest person on the planet!

I just threw up a little in my mouth.
