Very strange hotel info request - please take time to read you may have the info I require!

This is a really strange one I know, but if anyone was staying in London recently, did Donny Osmond happen to be staying in the same hotel as you?<BR><BR>If so, which hotel was it?<BR><BR>Would really appreciate your input.<BR>Thanks.<BR>SB

I haven't run into Donny Osmond. But if I had stayed at the same hotel in London as he did, I bet I sure would have clicked onto a thread that said, &quot;Donny Osmond at your hotel in London?&quot;. On the other hand your title does not automatically attract anyone with that personal knowledge. I'm not sure why I clicked on your thread, usually since generic pleas as this are likely to be skipped over.<BR><BR>Not being rude here, just trying to help you get the real answer you're looking for.

You need to repost and ask specifically about Donny Osmond in your header. Might get more hits that way.

Yes, this is very strange and my curiosity demands that I ask WHY you want to know this?

About 10 years ago, we were in Monaco for an afternoon. There were barriers and crowds in front of the main hotel where the Casino is. We finally heard the rumor that they were expecting Michael Jackson to come out of the hotel. Never saw or heard the outcome. Maybe Donny Osmond doesn't rate barriers?

Um, Sally, IF you are doing a survey of celebrity hotel preferences, why do you want to know if Donny Osmond lives in California? For those who don't read the U.S. board, she asks that question there.<BR><BR>If you really want to know, why not contact his management. I doubt they will give you the info over the phone, but with a written request, they MIGHT tell you about PREVIOUS hotel stays.<BR><BR>As someone who stayed one floor below the away basketball team at a hotel, I know I dont, and I doubt the hotel want anymore partiers in the building. Though I doubt there is any drinking with a Donny Osmond tour. <BR><BR>My basketball/hotel experience came back last week when the two teams were matched up in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

Oh don't be so sure about no drinking on a Donny Osmond tour! From experience in a previous life : ) I can tell you that musicians and roadies like to have fun regardless of whether they're supporting Guns n Roses or the Muppet Show!
