I want to hear from all of you fans out there -- what is your all-time favorite performance you've seen on the Oprah Show?
I'm working on a show with our most jaw-dropping performances from the last 5 years, and I'm counting on you to let me know your BEST OF THE BEST!
Could your favorite be when Bon Jovi brought the fans to their feet -- or David Blaine kept us on the edge of our seats (one producer couldn't even watch as it was happening, she was so nervous she had to leave the building!)
How about Paul Potts -- the YouTube sensation who won Britain's Got Talent? Seriously, that voice just gives me chills!
Or what about when Criss Angel had the entire audience in awe? Or seeing Faith Hill and Tim McGraw perform together and you could just feel the love? Could your favorite be when we took the show to Las Vegas -- seeing icons Tina and Cher on the same stage -- or Celine's incredible show with Cirque du Soleil?
So -- now here's my confession for my all-time favorite...growing up in the 70's, I was OBSESSED (and i don't use that term lightly) -- with The Donny and Marie Show. I had the records, didn't miss one darn episode, had the dolls with the purple outfits, memorized every single song...and had the poster of Donny that I blew a kiss at before I went to sleep every night. As the oldest sister, there was about a 2-year period when i could actually bully my brother into doing whatever I wanted -- and what did I want? To perform a "show" every time my grandparents visited -- with the finale being...wait for it...
"A Little Bit Country, and A Little Bit Rock and Roll."
I would drag my little brother out every time, he would sing the Donny part and i would sing the Marie part!! I loved every minute of it! (For my brother, it pretty much was 30 minutes of torture, not to mention the cruel hours of rehearsal i made him go through). My grandparents would applaud loudly, I would take a bow, and my brother would storm off to his room for the rest of the night.
Last year when 100 OSMONDS REUNITED here at Harpo Studios and Donny and Marie performed that song -- I felt like I was 9-years old all over again...singing the song at the top of my lungs from my office!
Now it's your turn -- what performance had you dancing in your living room -- singing in your kitchen -- jumping up and applauding -- completely mesmerized -- or made your ACTUAL JAW DROP?! It's your chance to get to see it one more time...so let me know!
