Donny Osmond kisses Susan Boyle after duet in Glasgow\n

Donny Osmond and Susan Boyle are incredible performers with millions of fans worldwide. They are both icons in their own right, but watching them share a stage together does feel like a dream.\n

\"\"\n

Luckily for us, we got to witness that dream become a reality once again when Donny invited Susan to join him in Glasgow and sing a duet with him. This wasn\u2019t the first time that these two created magic when their voices blended on stage.\n

Donny has been Susan\u2019s idol since she was a young girl. When she reached for the stars and became a well known name in the world of music, Susan got to perform with her idol in 2013 in Vegas.\n

\u201cIt was my first time in Vegas and it was great fun, especially since I got to perform with Donny Osmond. If someone told me years ago I\u2019d be performing on stage with him, I\u2019d have laughed at them. He\u2019s been my idol since I was 13, so I feel like I\u2019ve grown up with him in a way. It\u2019s all been a bit mind-blowing,\u201d Susan told the Daily Mail.\n

Susan\u2019s fans refer to themselves as to the Red Scarf Brigade in honor of her trademark red scarf.\n

\u201cSome people think they\u2019re a bit mad, but they\u2019re not. They\u2019re very kind to me and they made me a blanket with Donny\u2019s face on which I still have on my bed because it keeps me warm. This time they made a blanket with my face on it and gave it to him,\u201d the singer said.\n

\u201cI think people relate to me in some way,\u201d she added. \u201cMaybe they think, \u2018If she can do it in her late stage in life, maybe I can too.\u2019\u201d\n

Well, Susan may have an army of fans, but when it comes to Donny Osmond, he and his siblings even caused a movement dubbed Osmondmania.\n

This term was written all over newspapers following an incident during which 18 girls were slightly injured and four were treated for their injuries at the hospital.\n

Namely, the day The Osmonds arrived at Heathrow on 21 October 1973 ended up being a serious incident that could\u2019ve had some pretty dire consequences.\n

\"\"\n

When their plane landed, more than 10,000 fans packed the roof garden at the Queen\u2019s Building at Heathrow Airport, but as too many people were let onto the viewing site, a part of the balcony railing and wall collapsed. It was a miracles that the number of injured people was that low.\n

\u201cThe worst problem was hysteria,\u201d a helper at the Queen\u2019s Building medical center, where first aid was provided, said at the time. \u201cIt was difficult at first to distinguish between girls who had been hurt and girls who were screaming and weeping from fright or from disappointment at missing a sight of the group.\u201d\n

Donny and his siblings weren\u2019t even aware of what had happened util they arrived at the hotel.\n

\u201cIt was pretty cool, the screaming and the adulation, but I remember a moment right after the Heathrow experience where the balcony collapsed and we were banned from the airports,\u201d Donny Osmond remembered in an interview with the Standard.\n

\u201cI was in the hotel room with my brother Alan and we turn the television on that night and there was this programme with three people on \u2013 the presenter, a person from Scotland Yard and a child psychiatrist and they were debating whether or not Donny Osmond should be deported from England because of what he\u2019s doing to all of our young kids. My brother turned to me and said, \u2018You remember this moment because this never happens\u2019. It was such a cool moment.\u201d\n

Donny once recalled another incident involving a group of fans. Namely, he and his siblings were chased after by some girls into an underground car park of the hotel and the security had to use a firehose to keep them out.\n

\u201cI had the time of my life!\u201d Donny recalled. \u201cHundreds and hundreds of fans were able to get into the parking structure, and [because] I had long hair at the time, they were just surrounding us. Our security guard, he saw me, and because of my long hair, he thought I was one of the fans so he threw me back into the fans and realised what he had done, but he couldn\u2019t get to me because of all the fans. So I got on the floor, and I was sneaking to the entrance of the hotel, and one of the other security guards thought I was a fan and grabbed me and threw me back into the fans. It was awesome!\u201d\n

Recently, Donny performed in Glasgow. To the delight of the crowd, he asked a familiar name to join him on stage, Susan Boyle.\n

The two performed a version of This Is the Moment, which they recorded together in 2012.\n

A video of their performance, shared by Catherine Chisholm, shows Donny holding Susan\u2019s hand, smiling, before giving her a big hug. He then thanks her and lands a kiss on her forehead.\n

\"\"\n

\u201cThat was a treat \u2013 thank you, Susan. I love that woman,\u201d he could be heard saying.\n

\"\"\n

Donny himself posted a photo of him and Susan with the caption, \u201cIn Glasgow, Scotland and low and behold, guess who showed up to my concert? My dear friend, Susan Boyle! She was waiting in one of the dressing rooms backstage to go out to the audience and I heard this angel voice in the hallway. I walked up to the door and\u2026\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
