In 1972, my older sister had the walls covered with posters on Donny. I have now almost 50 years later changed my mind about Donny, he is a fantastic artist, singer, entertainer, peacock and human being. His public message is: Respect the opinion of others, be tolerant, be nice, be yourself.

IMO Donny is hands down one of the nicest, classiest, down to earth people to ever grace the entertainment industry.

I watched Donny and Marie as a kid. I did not watch the Masked Singer but my girlfriend was a fan. She showed me the clip of the first episode, I wasn't sure with the voice right away, but as soon as he started dancing The Greatest show it clicked. I told her, 'Donny Osmond' before the song ended.

Donny is such a humble man. He’s so genuine, committed to his craft and family. It’s so refreshing to see in this day and age.

Donny is so adorable. He really loved being the Peacock! He did a marvelous job.

Donny was the real winner to me. The best performer yet.

If the score was based on *swag points* alone, Donny would have been the winner. The peacock was kool and he had some swag.

Donny O is engaging, eloquent, humorous as hell and delightfully honest. What a pro!

I love that he said something like, ‘When you wear the mask, nobody knows you. You’re starting from scratch.’ None of his reputation meant anything. That takes serious courage. Way to go man!!! Texas

If I recall correctly, and yes I do recall, It wasn't so much that he was ostracized for being too nice. It was the horrible bubble gum music the record label kept pushing him & his brothers to record, which made them seem saccharine sweet, like the music (And his brothers, who are actually amazing rock musicians, suffered even more. They never got to do much of their kind of rock music) Then the series Donny and Marie, followed, where he was always made out to, well, be the punchline. But I've always respected how hard he worked & showed how deeply talented he is!!!

I just found this by accident. It's nice to watch a news interview that is unbiased. A great insight to Donny Osmond's personality and how he progressed. His progression from his earlier days performing with his sister to the Masked Singer as the peacock is a life lesson for all.

And he is ABSOLUTELY right!! I had heard of Donnie Osmond, but couldn’t care less....after hearing him perform I just LOVE him!

Donny Osmond one of the best talents of all time

Just a real guy...hard working...devoted husband and father...massively talented...so glad he is happy again.

I have been a fan of Donny's since the 1970's. I was so proud of him when he did this. I just loved watching people in the audience cheer for him. A lot of people said he was too old for the moves he did. He proved everybody wrong. He's amazing and can do anything he sets his mind to.

Growing up watching the Donny and Marie show on TV and having seen some of the documentaries on the Osmond family, it can be said that Donny probably has shouldered the biggest burden (with possibly Marie being equal) of essentially being the "FACE" of the Osmond family for more than a half century. He's had to navigate being the Osmond's straight man, had the intensity of female groupies, had the travails of starting so young, had to embody all of the Osmond brand wholesomeness while still maintaining charisma and sex appeal, had to often put the needs of his clan above his own, worked like a dog during the variety show era, and soldiered on like a true entertainment trooper/die-hard even after the cultural relevance of the Osmond brand fell out of favor. If anything, he is probably one of the most UNDERRATED performers of the last half century, and has a truly unique career. Whether it be on record, on a variety or stage show, as a talk show guest or host, on broadway, in Vegas, pitching a product, on Dancing With the Stars or being the "Peacock" on the masked singer - Donnie Osmond is a 100 percenter. He brings it all. He'll tackle anything with sincerity and gusto. A true entertainment lifer. He should be more valued and have more critical cache in general.

This host is so right. Donny and Marie (and the Osmond family) exude genuine love for family and really the world🙏🏾. I happened upon this intrvw, and thought i wld watch a little bit; but got engrossed in the listening to Donny’s humble, honest and fun response to the host’s questions. He is having so much fun doing this intrvw. He makes you laugh along with him. They’re a blessing to the world…

I love hearing him tell these stories ♥️

Donny Osmond was amazing as the peacock! Absolutely smashed it xx 😘

Donny Won hands down. It was extra special to let the runner up take the prize Donny is really something glad he's healthy and hanging around doing music long as possible.

Was fortunate to see he perform in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and was stunned by how outstanding he was. While I guessed the Peacock was him, I have been surprised by him like his duet with Susan Boyle. Fantastic voice that he should be appreciated even more.

Amazing Donny! You're the winner! Celebrities judges said you were amazing performer. I enjoy watching Osmonds for decades. Everything your family does is GOLD😊 Love all of you.❤️❤️❤️

Donny Osmond, like his brother Alan and his sister Marie, is such a positive person! Little wonder why I, along with countless other people, love ❤️ the entire family (this includes their kids and grandkids!).

I love his performances and his song choices!!

The moment Donnie opened his mouth and sang I knew it was Donnie. And even his movements, the way he moves his hands and the way he walks when he sings. That was the only one i knew. Fun show,

He is my favorite performer/singer when I was in high sschool days. He is a versatile performer. He performed Peacock so great. Congrats. I love it.

I have enjoyed watching you perform for many years. I loved you as the Peacock and thought you did an amzing job. You really worked the costume and got into character. Thanks for all those years of enjoyment.

I don't know if anyone else noticed it but while he was singing the song "Counting Stars" , after he came down off of the stairs onto the stage he was dancing and did that signature side hop move that he and Marie used to do all the time on Donny & Marie. No one else does that move. I already knew it was him but if I had not, That would have been the clincher.
