Comments about ‘Osmonds: Big-time Las Vegas headliners’

I think that's AWESOME!! I'm a huge Donny O. fan and I always watched their show in the 70's. I think that's great!! Way to go!!

Mormons entertaining in Vegas again. Isn't there something odd about this?

I will always remember Marie Osmond as a genuine, generous soul. Years ago she performed in a TV program "Christmas at the White House," when Ronald Reagan was President and I was playing in the orchestra. During a lull in the rehearsals she came by to thank us orchestra musicians for our efforts. In my long career, I've seen few star performers do that.

Well,
I hope that they will do well and be good as examples. Please don't have the dancers nearly nude!

Well, whole topic of Las Vegas and the sin city it is aside, this will add some light to the darkness there and provide a great alternative to the many distasteful and immoral acts that are headlining there. (Yes I've been there).

this will be fun, you can count on the entertainment being wholesome....in a city where "what happens here stays here".

Lived in Vegas for a decade. Isn't it interesting how many Mormons are comfortable profiting from that environment?

I am first in line to see some family entertainment in Las Vegas. Go Donny and Marie!!

Those who sit here "IN JUDGEMENT" should see if they live in Glass Houses! Who and what gives you the right to judge these fine upstanding people for doing what they love in a Casino with a "Show Stage" to entertain people? I didn't see that the article was about Donny & Marie headlining as Black Jack Dealers, or Texas Holdem' dealers did anyone else? They are going to sing and have a show at some of the best "Show Houses" in Las Vegas! BYU plays in the Vegas Bowl Playing FOOTBALL, should they boycott the Vegas Bowl because there are casinos there? SHUT UP YOU!

It's very hard to find good family entertainment these days----especially in Vegas......I hope they are a huge success......That's a great option for our family....

HY PO CRITE

WAY to go COUGAR KEITH!

I love it. Two Mormons performing in a casino and raking in the dirty cash. Can you say hipocrisy? Kind of reminds me of Steve Young, who took the optional ESPN sportcaster job that requires him to work Sundays. Oh boy, and these people are supposed to be Mormon role models?

russ: Mormon's settled Las Vegas... so nothing odd in it, except for the surroundings...

besides who wants to see two over the hill acts in D&M???? But on the plus side. Marie has handy access to marriage licenses and drive through weddings... So maybe there is a reason.

My goodness -- all the "experts" on Las Vegas who hang out here! You really don't know our very Mormon town much, do you?

Yes, I think they will do well. Las Vegas is really in need of decent entertainment. As far as Mormons, duh, Las Vegas was settled by Mormons. In addition, the wonderful Gladys Knight has lived in Henderson and worked in Las Vegas for some time. I guess some people go to Vegas with only one thing on their minds. Too bad, Las Vegas really has more than just smut to offer.

Before you become another Sigfried and Roy contact Sigfried and Jensen.

Who cares what the naysays say on the message board about the Osmonds. They are grownups and can do what they think is best for their careers. There's nothing wrong with entertaining in Las Vegas, regardless of what anti-gamblers, LDS cheapshot artists may think or say to the contrary. There have been many LDS entertainers who have performed in gambling meccas over the years. WHO CARES!! The Osmonds will do far more good in providing a more wholesome option for entertainment in a sleasy environment. The girly half-clad part will probably not be part of the shows. I didn't particularly enjoy the Miss USA co-hosting job done by Donny and Marie. I just don't think the beauty pageants are that great anymore. The contestants are far too scimpily clad, and are just being controlled by less than moral people. The judges on that particular pageant were just atrocious, and unqualified, including several counterculture weirdos in my opinion.

All in all, the Osmonds can do what they want....what they are doing is not evil and is not hypocritical.

Also, get off of Steve Young's back....that's manure.

Opening act: Napoleon and Roy and their Liger Extravaganza.

Cover prices are steep and there's a two Jello minimum.
