Marie Osmond first appeared on 'The Andy Williams Show' at age 3, going on to star on the award winning 'Donny and Marie' musical-variety series at age 15, guest-starring the biggest names in entertainment, and was dubbed into 17 languages. Along with many other TV appearances, Marie starred in the TV movies 'Gift of Love', 'Side by Side', and 'I Married Wyatt Earp', was co-host of the Emmy nominated 'Donny & Marie' talk show and was watched by 25 million viewers as a finalist on 'Dancing With the Stars' (season 5). Author of two New York Times best-selling books, Behind the Smile and Might As Well Laugh About it Now, Marie has designed the award-winning 'Marie Osmond Collectible Dolls', celebrating its 20th year. Currently performing to sold-out shows at the Flamingo Showroom (Las Vegas) with her brother, this is the first time the duo has performed live on stage in over 28 years. Marie has recorded numerous albums, with scores of chart-topping songs and gold records, beginning with her debut #1 Billboard single at age 13, 'Paper Roses', followed by a string of hit duet songs with Donny and her own hit songs 'No Stoppin Your Heart', 'Read My Lips' and the Country Music Association s award winning song 'Meet Me in Montana.
This inspirational album, I CAN DO THIS, showcases her range from Country to Opera. She chose each of the songs as a simple gift of thanks to a loving God, for the 'school' of life here on this earth.
Above every other accomplishment, Marie Osmond is the proud mother of eight beautiful children. They are her greatest legacy and her most precious gifts this album is dedicated to them.
The proceeds of this album will be donated to Children's Miracle Network Hospitals®. This charity, which I co-founded in 1982, helps 170 hospitals throughout North America provide world-class, kid-size care to millions of children each year. I give this donation as a gift of love and hope for the future of our children.
(100% of all donations given to CMN go to the children)
