It’s Las Vegas Night on Week 2 of Dancing with the Stars, Season 27. After a night of dances honoring New York City the night before, the 12 remaining couple will celebrate the bright lights of Las Vegas. And what’s a celebration of Sin City without Vegas entertainer Donny Osmond! After watching his younger sister Marie Osmond compete on DWTS Season 5 (she came in 3th place with partner Jonathan Roberts), Donny went for it.
Almost ten years ago, Osmond won Season 9 of Dancing with the Stars in 2009 with his professional dance partner Kym Johnston (who later married her Season 20 celeb partner, Shark Tank investor Robert Herjavec). Osmond was 52 when he won the Mirror Trophy Ball, which makes him the oldest celebrity to win Dancing with the Stars. He was already a grandfather at the time, too. (He married at 20, and had 5 sons.)
For the 2018 Las Vegas Night, Osmond will serenade alpine skier and Paralympian Danelle Umstead and Artem Chigvintsev as they dance to his version of “Luck Be a Lady.” Fun fact: Marlon Brando sang the song in the 1955 film version of the musical Guys and Dolls. Brando’s co-star Frank Sinatra recorded it on his own and it became one of his signature songs. Dancing with the Stars airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 8pm on ABC.
