No, Marie Osmond WON'T perform at Trump's inauguration

http://www.msn.com/en-us/music/news/no-marie-osmond-won%E2%80%99t-perform-at-trump-inauguration/ar-AAlOt9T?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartanntp

Marie Osmond is walking back comments she made during a Tuesday interview with Yahoo when she suggested she'd be open to performing at Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20.
In a Facebook message posted on Thursday, Osmond clarified her remarks saying she is not performing at the inauguration.


"Many of you have seen various stories saying that I volunteered or that I'm performing at the inauguration. So let me be clear!" the crooner wrote. "I had no intention of performing at this inauguration no matter who won!"


Guess who's gonna get Twitterslimed next.

Substituting Meryl Streep's name with Marie's.


"Over rated" and on and on.

may have contributed to it along with all the religious crap.

maybe she learned from that to accept her daughter.

In any case, I think we can regard he as a person who has been opened by tragedy, and someone heading towards more humane values in response.

I think the song "Take Me To Church" may have personal resonance for her.

Can't imagine her being much of a Mike Pence fan.
