Donny Osmond Reveals Why He Loved Doing "Masked Singer" | E! Red Carpet & Award Shows

[@EdelweissM_TheJourney]

Peacock, ahem, I mean, Donny, you were just phenomenal there in Season 1 of #TheMasKedSinger! I hope #Fox will give you the costume! There's no one else that can fit in that costume/mask! I just knew, as well as my daughter who lives about 350 miles away from me in Minneapolis! We both said it has got to be #DonnyOsmond! My word, you were just the greatest showman and still are! The producers truly knew that you can deliver it each time! Those who are fans of yours knew from your clues before Marie outed you or tried to, anyway, knew that it was you behind the #PeacockMask! I went crazy, too! I said, ah, wow, your clue about your dear friend, Michael Jackson's remark about your name, the piano, the puppy, and again your voice just made us sigh in awe! You are our winner, Donny! We love you and support your every endeavor in our own special way! Oh, one more thing, when I saw that wig on Instagram, I was disappointed and asked why would you give it away? Obviously, the panel didn't catch on to it! I can go on and on! Bravo, on your phenomenal talents and for making the #AngelMoroni a part of your clues twice in a row!

Osmond was Brilliant as peacock . People in my house loved him .

[@gloriashaeffer6776]

Donny, You were AMAZING I knew it was you from the first song , I didn't need clues , just the way you performed, of course I have been a fan since you were 5 so I was familiar with your moves, I love every single performance , I wish you hd won but in my eyes you did Love you Thank you for sharing your talent with us

[@debstacey4785]

By far my FAVORITE performer!!! I wanted to hate The show so badly for its kitschy theme, but once he started The Greatest Show, I was HOOKED! Once I saw a few clues and had the idea it was possibly him, I was so excited. If he had been ANYONE else under there, I would have been HEARTBROKEN! Way to go D.O.!

[@vistaprime]

that's a hot grandpa.

[@DebraHarber2183]

I really felt that the peacock should received the trophy; he did win - really did win.

[@KDL861]

Debra Harber Totally agree but Bee (Gladys Knight) should have been 2nd.

[@isleJane]

Yes, he didn't use sob stories to gain votes. I bet Gladys Knight had many struggles in the business. She didn't harp on them, either. Mr. Osmond and Ms. Knight are true professional singers and performers. Judge by talent and performances, only.

[@franfinne9673]

Yes he should have won the trophy..

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

That is neat, his grandson knew his voice even in the costume. He was fantastic and more than held his own in this contest. Interesting background on the show and how much Fox took a chance on it. Glad they did.

[@mrpringle1474]

I hope Donny will judge season 2

[@KDL861]

Mr Pringle Great idea! I wish Nicole would go away.

[@isleJane]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@merricat3025]

@@KDL861 at first I like Ken but by the third episode I wish he was gone. I never liked Nicole. I didn't like Robin at first and by the end he became my favorite.

[@izzyhall9797]

Omg same!!! Not only him but Joey Fatone or T-Pain or whoever

[@gelatrish9555]

Him and Kenan should be judges next year.

[@hometowngirl8062]

I knew from first 20 seconds. Clues were too good for a Donny fan. You deserved to win!!!

[@kristybasham4746]

The voice got me. For 2 seconds I thought maybe David Hasselhoff because their voices are similar but his mannerisms screamed Donny Osmond.

[@brandyketchen6963]

Yes, parents had posters of me on the wall. Other michael jackson... I was almost asleep.. Raised up said donny osmond

[@bb.cute.channel]

Good interview. Hope FOX will release Masked Singer season 1 on DVD 📀 and Blu-ray. Include never seen before interviews and behind the scenes clips. 👍👍👍👍

[@sunflowerseeds4127]

😱😱😱😱yes omg.

[@mrpringle1474]

Donny is the reason I kept watching this show because I knew he was the peacock since episode 1

[@isleJane]

Only reason, for me, too!

[@franfinne9673]

Donny/Peacock was without a doubt the best all around performer on the show..He was amazing! I looked forward to watching the show bc of the Peacock..couldn't wait to watch him perform. Bravo on second place!..but Peacock should have won!

[@crystaldblevins]

I agree. He has great showmanship. Loved all his performances.

[@maiseelauj]

He did an awesome job. Every single performance was amazing and entertaining.

[@alberto032973]

Love the masked singer I'm masked singer no1 fan 4ever

[@katievioletthedivadog8662]

I love you Donny. I knew it was you from the very first time I heard you sing. You can’t mistake that voice. I’ve loved you since I was a little girl and I know your voice very well. I was so excited for you and I couldn’t wait until the day that you were unmasked. I was really certain that you would be number one, but you came in second and that was fantastic. I’m so glad that you had the chance to be anonymous because it showed that people really loved you as a performer. Congratulations!

[@Scout-cn7il]

I love him SO much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!💜💜

[@KDL861]

The clues from the jump revealed Donny as the Peacock!

[@catwhisperer5193]

I will always be a Donny Osmond fan💕❤️💕❤️

[@brandyketchen6963]

If from 70s. Girls gotta be

[@s_vlog1013]

He’s still amazing even now xx 😘

[@donnapuckett4992]

Donny a grandfather...wow, am I getting old. LOL Great job, Donny!

[@osfor41]

Donna puckett He’s a grandfather x6 !!! I might have missed one or two , but I’m pretty sure it’s 6

This is a great interview. Donny is the #1 Entertainer, Performer and Singer.

[@brandyketchen6963]

You did a great job young Osmond. "Lol shake that tail feather"

[@celes42017]

I knew it was Donny from the first episode! He was so great at lowering his voice an octave! Still love Donny to this day. He looks amazing!

[@andrewrenshaw2741]

Fun little fact. Just moments before the finale aired, someone edited Wikipedia to show his middle name as peacock. I saw it and made a bet with my sister who was convinced it was NPH.

[@rubywingo6030]

I totally knew from the get go! The wig clue was hilairious!

[@MetalMavenMilieu]

I was convinced peacock was Donny till 'the wig got u thrown in jail', neil doesn't sound anything like him, but weird al is a good mimic and was more likely to have been in jail, certainly not Donny

[@chrissystewart6268]

I love Donny Osmond theeeeeee Legend 😉

[@renaefindley2958]

I know it was Donny for the very first time he sang, and the moves were awesome as the Peacock. Your the Best

[@KDL861]

I love him!!!

[@featherblessing8724]

I was hoping and praying he would win. He really went the extra fifty miles .I suspected Donny was the peacock in a moment where he was showing the ruffled purple ascot he was wearing . I remember him wearing purple socks on Donny and Marie. I love the show and Donny made it extra fabulous. I also hope he gets to keep the costume.

[@juliasnyderdssmalmt5102]

Great job Donny, you made that show come alive. Thanks

[@kristinkemp00]

Donny I've always loved u, grew up listening to u. I knew from the first show it was u. I've lost my mom to breast cancer I only wish she was here to watch u as the peacock she loved u too.

[@aniea5664]

He rocked the stage. WOW💖💖

[@macwacha8415]

Great show!

[@yowgyrl]

how did they keep the audience from spoiling who the singers were?

[@ThatDamnPandaKai]

That's the problem; it was taped 7 months ago.. do you really think there won't be someone in the audience who won't go on twitter and tweet out who each person is when they're eliminated?

[@iamallmy1]

Everyone there had signed a NDA contract

[@nathan-qo9rj]

Princess Lemmy Fox can sue them since they made everyone in the audience sign a contract.

[@iamallmy1]

@@nathan-qo9rj nope, that's just hollywood go

[@ThatDamnPandaKai]

@@nathan-qo9rj And how would they enforce that? They might sign an NDA with their real name, but use a different twitter handle. No way to really prove John smith is @weeabookiller. Hell even the performers blabbed, and Donnie's Sister pretty much admitted on TV he was the peacock.

[@neetrab]

@@ThatDamnPandaKai well, they must've enforced it pretty well if most people still didn't know who these performers were 7 months later.

[@RobertCherney]

i guess is donny osmond i win he is a peacock

[@steveeverett1736]

Excellent fun show, I honestly thought it was Neil Patrick Harris as well

[@cynthiaroe6539]

I knew the peacock was Hugh Jackman or Donny Osmond
