Flamingo headliner Donny Osmond recently took part in a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) to hawk his album, “The Soundtrack of My Life.”<\/p>\n

Osmond is savvy about the media and his public image, so he deftly sidestepped anything controversial, including the ongoing Donny & Marie feud<\/a>. (They rarely speak when they’re not onstage.)<\/p>\n

Still, the Reddit AMA was rich with things we didn’t know about Donny Osmond, and we’ve extracted some tidbits below.<\/p>\n

\"Donny
Donny & Marie launched their Flamingo show on Sep. 9, 2008. It was intended to be a six-week run.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Donny’s most embarrassing showbiz moment was when his loincloth fell off during a performance of “Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.”<\/p>\n

The biggest challenge of his career was getting ready to wear the loincloth in that show.<\/p>\n

Osmond recorded his signature song, “Puppy Love,” in three takes.<\/p>\n

\"Donny
During his AMA, Donny said he once wore braces. Maybe we should put “surprising facts” in quotation marks.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

He didn’t like the comedy sketches on the classic “Donny and Marie” show. His favorite parts were the “A Little Bit Country, A Little Bit Rock ‘n’ Roll” segments.<\/p>\n

His favorite part of the show at Flamingo is “Soldier of Love.”<\/p>\n

The one place he’d like to perform where he never has is the Taj Mahal.<\/p>\n

Donny Osmond’s favorite ice cream is Chocolate Chocolate Chip Haagen-Dazs.<\/p>\n

Of all his accomplishments, Osmond’s improvised dance in Weird Al Yankovic’s “White and Nerdy” video is one of his proudest. Outtakes, below. He get a Christmas card every year from Al Yankovic.<\/p>\n
