Marie Osmond's Dolls Dance On
Marie Osmond may not have won Dancing with the Stars, but that hasn't stopped her from taking Baby Jane-meets-Bride of Chucky to the next level.
The 48-year-old singer has now added a line of dolls to her existing QVC collection based on the outfits she wore during the competition, including the frilly pink babydoll number she donned for her controversial freestyle routine.
Fans can choose from Osmond's aforementioned freestyle getup, the WWII-era military-inspired costume she wore when she dedicated her "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" jive to her parents, the Spanish senorita outfit she wore for the paso doble and, of course, the short ruffled turquoise number she samba'd—and subsequently passed out—in.
Each 12-inch Adora Belle porcelain doll retails for $89.94 (not including shipping and handling) from QVC's Website, where Osmond has been hawking her creations for years.
And if the market for such a product seems questionable, remember that one person's kitsch is another person's treasure—especially if it belongs to one of the millions who helped Osmond reach the DWTS final this season.
What she may have lacked in the skills department—compared to, say, Sabrina Bryan and Jennie Garth or even Jane Seymour and Cameron Mathison—Osmond more than made up for with bubbly enthusiasm and spirited self-promotion.
A week after her on-camera collapse, she was back on the air touting the sequin-clad 12-inch version of herself, saying that, in accordance with how she ended up after dancing her samba, the doll would best be displayed lying on its back.
Osmond's unexpected ascension to the finals was the least of the dramatic moments that the divorced mother of eight brought to the ballroom this year (with each crisis apparently worth about 3 to 4 million votes apiece).
Her fainting spell would have been enough, but the "Paper Roses" songstress also endured the loss of her 90-year-old father—the morning after she paid tribute to him with her jive—and admitted on Larry King Live that her 16-year-old son was in rehab
Although most people would be primed to take a break after all that, Osmond is planning to hoof it up—hopefully sans the pink doll dress—on the upcoming Dancing with the Stars—The Tour, which kicks off Dec. 18.
