Marie Osmond has dedicated over sixty years to entertaining audiences worldwide through her talents in music, television, Broadway, film, writing, entrepreneurship, and public speaking.
As the only daughter of the renowned Osmond family, Marie made her first appearance at age three on The Andy Williams Show, humorously introduced as "the youngest Osmond brother." At 12, she released her debut solo album, Paper Roses, propelling her to international fame and making her the youngest female artist to top two Billboard charts—a record she still holds.
Marie became the youngest female co-host of a network television show with the global hit Donny & Marie, which aired internationally and was translated into 17 languages. During this time, she coined the memorable phrase, "I'm a little bit country," which became a signature line of the show and her career.
Since 1973, she has released numerous chart-topping, gold, and platinum albums spanning various genres. Her latest album, Unexpected, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Crossover chart and consistently returned to the Top 10.
A three-time New York Times best-selling author, Marie gained widespread acclaim with her first book, Behind the Smile, which was groundbreaking in its candid discussion of severe postpartum depression.
For 17 years, she was a spokesperson for Nutrisystem, motivating millions to adopt healthier lifestyles.
As a philanthropist, Marie co-founded the Children's Miracle Network, which has raised over $9.5 billion and assists more than 17 million children annually.
Mattel honored Marie as the first celebrity to be made into a Barbie doll. She later launched her own collection of porcelain dolls, selling millions over 25 years and earning multiple awards as a designer and sculptor.
In recognition of her decades of performing for U.S. troops with the USO and Bob Hope, Marie received the Secretary of Defense Medal for Outstanding Public Service—the highest civilian honor awarded by the Pentagon.
From 2008 to 2019, she and her brother starred in an 11-year Las Vegas residency, voted the city's No. 1 show. Caesars Entertainment honored them for surpassing the combined total performances of Elvis and Celine, and they were presented with both the key to the Las Vegas Strip and a star on the Walk of Stars.
In 2011, Marie remarried her first husband, Stephen Craig, whom she calls the love of her life. She is a proud mother of eight children and grandmother of nine, roles she regards as her greatest accomplishments.
