Marie Osmond made her first TV appearance at three, when her oldest brothers performed on The Andy Williams Show as the Osmonds. The Osmonds shot to pop stardom in 1970, and before long the group’s management encouraged Marie record as well. She made several concert appearances with her brothers, and in 1973, she cut her first single, the country tune “Paper Roses.” The song was a smash, going to number one on the country charts. Her album of the same name also topped the country charts. In 1976, she and brother Donny began hosting their own variety show, Donny & Marie, which ran until 1979. In the mid-’80s, she returned to country music, scoring a number one hit with the Dan Seals duet “Meet Me in Montana.” Her solo follow-up, “There’s No Stopping Your Heart,” also topped the country charts, and she landed two more big hits in 1986 with “Read My Lips” and the number one Paul Davis duet “You’re Still New to Me.” Osmond returned to television in 1998 as co-host of the daytime talk show Donny & Marie, which ran for two seasons. In 2006, Osmond was one of the judges on the FOX series Celebrity Duets, and the following year, ABC tapped her to perform on the fifth season of its blockbuster series Dancing with the Stars. In 2010, she released I Can Do This. Marie continues to tour the world.
