Donny Osmond shares the impactful advice Elvis Presley gave him about fan interaction. He discusses how Presley's words inspired his own approach to connecting with his audience, especially through social media.
Donny Osmond is remembering the best advice he received from Elvis Presley. Osmond, 67, recalled the words of wisdom from Presley that resonated with him at a young age. 'I remember when we were talking to Elvis one day, our family even. He said, 'If I could do it all over again, I'd get closer to my fans,'' Osmond told People. 'I was 14 at the time when he said that.
And it really, really influenced me that a guy this big, you know, the 'king' of rock ‘n’ roll, says he wishes he could get closer to his fans 'cause he was so isolated. That's one of the reasons why I do it, because that came from the ‘king.’' Osmond continued to explain how he'd taken a more modern approach with social media in 2024 and said he 'really enjoys' engaging with his fans as he reflected on his illustrious musical career. 'Can you imagine what I could have done with social media and the 'Puppy Love' days?' he remarked. Osmond's comments came on the same day his brother, Wayne, a founding member of The Osmond Brothers, died at 73 of a massive stroke on New Year’s Day. Wayne was also the brother of entertainer Marie Osmond. 'Wayne Osmond, beloved husband and father, passed away peacefully last night surrounded by his loving wife and five children,' the Osmond family said in a statement posted Thursday on the Facebook page of Wayne's daughter, Amy Osmond Cook. 'His legacy of faith, music, love, and laughter have influenced the lives of many people around the world.
