Marie Osmond's Kid Heads to Rehab

It's not a good time to be Marie Osmond.


On tonight's "Larry King Live," the "Dancing with the Stars" star was blindsided by Larry King who asked if 16-year-old son Michael was in rehab. What would Brigham Young do?! She confirmed that he was admitted last week -- the same week Marie's father died at his home in Utah.

Osmond got choked up while talking about her son, telling Larry, "He is the most amazing kid ... it's been a hard week." Still, Marie managed to go on with the "Dancing" show.

92. Oh give me a break people. Dancing in a competition for forgotten stars is not real work. I'm sure she has more money than the average single mother. There is no good reason for her not to leave and support her son.

93. To all of you who are dissing on Larry King for asking about her son>>>Hello! That is his job to ask the questions! That's why he has been there so long. He is good at what he does or he wouldn't be doing it. Too bad for you losers who admire Marie and think she is perfect. Did you see that look on her face when Mr. King asked her about her son in rehab? That was priceless! She didn't want her little perfect image tarnished. Well too bad. If she would have had her bloated self at home instead of doing one interview after another, dancing on DWTS, and whatever else the attention wh*re may be doing , her son may not have picked up the pipe! Kudos to Larry for asking the tough questions. Good job!! I think the entire Osmond family are a bunch of freaks!!!

96. No surprise, addictions can be found in any family. Hopefully rehab will work for him.

97. Why not JAN? Larry was just doing his job. I hardly ever agree with anyone, but I do agree with CHUCK. Tell us one valid reason Larry shouldn't have brought it up? Because her father just died? She is the one who chooses to give all of the interviews instead of being at home where she obviously should be with her ailing son. I know Marie makes your bush all wet, but face it

98. I am so sick of seeing the Osmonds,every night on ET and other entertainment programs.There kind of entertainment is long gone.You would think they were the only ones that loved their family.Overly sentimental,sappy and obsessed with there own brood,it just goes to far.....We all have problems too.....

99. This is way to much! This woman will go to any length to win this competition to gain the sympathy vote.....fainting, dieing father and now sending a kid to rehab! I call for a full investigation. I smell conspiracy....the fix is on.

101. 73# Carlitasway- I hope I spell your post name right, if I am not, Sorry for it. Marie did not skip her father's funeral. It is impossible to understand anything when you dont know anything about LDS., apply to all other religions! I studied mormonism with LDS in Park City, Utah. LDS only have the funeral service offering to the mormons inside the church. Closed to others. For example, the couple who happen to be mormon, and want to get marry, then they only invited the people who are mormon inside, because of temple sacraife. Closed to other people who are not LDS, and for the people who are not LDS, go to the receptions. It is same for funeral. George Osmond is a very private person and probably asked all of his children to not have to be soo publicized funeral service. It is okay if you don't believe or don't like their religion or it sounds odd to you, it is the way they worship. My Uncle asked my Father not to have the memorial service on his death wish. We did. It doesn't mean we are not great or nice people because we don't do my Uncle's funeral service! My Uncle is Christian. Don't assume anything before you think you know everything. Plus, Marie is not that old,only 10 years older than me. I enjoy my age while I can and enjoy my children ( my boys ) at the same time. When it comes to being 70, it becomes an old age and not easy to put up with health issues. I am happy to know you want to have the priority as being be there for your family in time of need!.

103. I can't stand Larry King. He has such little class and this is another instance that proves that. He could have at least forewarned her of his intentions of mentioning her son. That was such a low blow. All for the sake of ratings. Shame on him!!!

104. ANYTHING FOR ATTENTION - shut your face - my dad is 83, active, wise and I hope he lives to 99. Even that is not enough years with the wondeful man I call dad. You either are orphaned at a young age or a reject - good grief. Marie loved her dad - she is doing quite well in the face of it and with a child now in rehab. So shut up and get the hell off of the TMZ blog.

105. I really find it hard to believe that anybody would be so judgemental . There are such nasty role models today! Marie Osmond has been in a family that was revered for three decades. We all have problems and it is about time that she is the only Osmond that is able to express that fact. The Osmondshave been successful and she is the only girl in the family and has seems to deal with quite a bit in her life. Do you think that maybe she has alot on her plate and now she is trying to get out there? I love her and I hope that she keeps going. She has gone through a lot and I do admire her conviction to continue. Check your own children out. Maybe when you are saying things about others, you are really look at your own parentingskills or lack of parenting from your parents.
