A day after burying her 18-year-old son, Marie Osmond returned to the Las Vegas stage amid tears and standing ovations.
It was a sold out crowd at the Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel Tuesday Night, RadarOnline.com reports The audience was anxious, not knowing what to expect. Then Donny and Marie came out to thunderous applause.
They stunned the packed house with the soulful rendition of the Aretha Franklin/George Michael duet "I Knew You Were Waiting For Me."
After the first of 3 standing ovations, Marie said "The way Osmonds survive is they keep singing. My son would want that."
They ended the show with an upbeat song, but Marie couldn't sing the last few lines, instead speaking them because she was crying.
As they said goodbye, they got their third and final standing ovation.
An eyewitness says, "The room had amazing energy in it, and it ended up being a very uplifting show, despite the circumstances that Marie had just been to her son's funeral the day before."
