Legendary Performer Donny Osmond Extends Run At Harrah’s
Six weeks. That’s how long Donny & Marie were set to perform at The Flamingo when they signed a residency deal. That six weeks turned into a lengthy 11 year run that entertained hundreds of thousands. All good things must come to an end, but Donny Osmond wasn’t done with Las Vegas. Turns out, Las Vegas isn’t done with Donny either.
Harrah’s Las Vegas Showroom has been the home of Donny’s solo residency since August 2021 and history is repeating itself. As it often does in Las Vegas, if the people show up so too do the renewals. The Best Of Las Vegas award winning show just got renewed into 2024.
The property announced that Donny’s residency will be adding a ton of new performances to his schedule:
- January 2024: 23-27, 30-31
- February 2024: 1-3, 13-17, 20-24, 27-29
- March 2024: 1-2, 12-16, 19-23, 26-30
- April 2024: 2-6, 30
- May 2024: 1-4, 7-11
Donny Osmond, a star 60 years in the making
It is almost hilarious to think, but Donny Osmond got his start on-stage with The Osmond Brothers at the tender age of five years old. That young boy would later be one of the heartthrobs of The Osmonds and adorn the TV screens, radios and magazines of adoring fans worldwide.
Having that much fame that early could potentially turn you into a monster. But ask anyone who has met him at countless charity events in town and they’ll tell you – he’s the real deal. His work with the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation hosting Champions Run For Life, replacing fallen friend Danny Gans. Shaving heads for St. Baldrick’s. If you ever meet him, he’ll likely treat you like your an old friend.
Donny is the real deal and his show is really – REALLY good. At 65 years old it looks like he’s competing for Justin Bieber’s spotlight than an Ensure commercial. Certainly one of those artists you should see before it’s too late. Thankfully given his incredible run in town, that time may be a long ways away.
Marc Rebillet Teases Show At Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas
Loop Daddy hath spoken! Marc Rebillet, the viral musician known for his off the cuff beats and improvised and sometimes quite hilarious lyrics, is returning to Las Vegas. He has teased a new show at Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas. Let him cook, and his children will eat. The date is TBD, but we are ready.
Fans of Marc Rebillet already know. But if you’ve never heard of him, chances are you’re asking…
Who the hell is Marc Rebillet?
Great question. The Dallas-born internet star was first thrust into the spotlight after fleecing a greedy woman in line for an iPhone.
There is a young Marc Rebillet. Marc was 18 years old in 2007 and first in line to buy an iPhone… but took $800 so a woman with $100,000 could sell the store out. That’d leave everyone else out of luck. Well, she was told nope, only one per customer. Marc was $800 richer. The internet laughed.
That little bit of internet virality was just the tip of the iceberg for Marc.
Marc Rebillet turns into Loop Daddy
He dropped out of college where he was studying to become an actor. He took a bunch of jobs, quitting one in hilarious fashion. His music career was starting to slowly bubble to the surface. His songs (many of which you’ll find below) were starting to go semi-viral. That’s when I discovered him in 2018 at less than 80,000 YouTube subscribers. He is now at over 2.2 million.
Don’t get caught up in the “goofiness” of some of the songs. His ability to effortlessly loop and generate incredible beats and lyrics out of thin air are nothing less than a miracle.
At one point, I had Donny Osmond (yes that Donny Osmond) at my cubicle and had him listen to these two songs. Donny was astounded and impressed. So was the rest of the planet. From playing Las Vegas on New Years Eve at the Golden Tiki, to Coachella, to a random street corner in Brooklyn. Marc Rebillet and his talent was made for the internet age.
His 2021 Brooklyn Bowl show was outrageous…
It was an absolute madhouse. A fan who followed him to several shows had her mom in tow. Soon after, she was on stage twerking alongside an underwear clad Rebillet. (He wears a robe and eventually gets near naked on stage). Fans were flinging items on stage for him to wear. A few “hits” were played but much of the night was improvised.
Obviously the show was a hit… now Brooklyn Bowl wants him for more.
Even the most fickle concertgoer will love going to a Marc Rebillet show. Here’s some of my personal favorite songs… but know that when you go, you’ll get a completely different experience that will at points sexy, hilarious, outrageous and fist-pump inducing.
Here’s a preview of some of what you can expect from his music and his shows. Know that it’s probably not that safe for work.
