BREAKING NEWS: Marie Osmond’s Talk Show Is Cancelled

It had already been booked on TV stations in 80 percent of the country for a September, 2009 premiere, but the plug has been pulled on Marie Osmond’s talk show because of “deteriorating conditions in the broadcasting, advertising and credit markets,” the singer’s rep has told RadarOnline.com.

Marie as chat show host was an idea that sprung from her 2007 appearance on Dancing With the Stars and her subsequent best-selling autobiography.  “This project, under proper conditions, still remains a strong passion of mine,” she said.

In the meantime, Marie is performing five shows a week with her brother Donny Osmond at the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas.
