This weekend my daughter (Yes, I've raised a second generation fangirl) and I reveled in a Lord of the Rings marathon - all extended versions - at the Arclight movie theatre as we gear up for The Hobbit. Total Middle Earth immersion. There really is nothing like seeing films on the big screen.
Today, on his birthday I want to salute the person who awakened my fangirl self, lo those many years ago:
Donny Osmond
I have no proof, but I'm fairly certain he was singing Puppy Love to me. I was in hog heaven back on March 15, 1972 when D.J., Robert W. Morgan, played Puppy Love for 90 minutes straight on KHJ radio in Los Angeles.
A lifelong dream came true this week when I FINALLY got to see Donny Osmond perform live on stage in:
It was AMAZING. I sang, I swooned, I was inspired. The performances by both Donny and Marie were stellar. So many times we build idols up in our minds to a place impossible to live up to. Not so in this case. Donny surpassed my wildest expectations. I hereby nominate him for national treasure.
Happy Birthday, Donny.
Who makes your fangirl/fanboy heart go pitter patter? Any stories to share?
