Marie Osmond returned to the stage at the Flamingo Hotel & Casino last night in Las Vegas, just about two weeks after her son Michael Bryan jumped to his death in Los Angeles.

“Little did I know I would be relying on my faith, especially as much as I did this past week,” Osmond told the packed audience as she dedicated a song to “my angel.”

Osmond was back onstage with brother Donny only a day after her 18-year-old son was buried in Provo, Utah.

Donny, who called his sister “a strong woman,” said to the audience following their first song together, “I just think that we need to give a big round of applause to my sister for even coming onstage tonight.”

“Don’t do that… I’m going to have to leave,” said Marie, adding, “God bless you all… The way Osmonds survive is we keep singing and that’s what we want to do tonight. I know my son would want that.”

Marie even managed to joke, “Thank you, papers, for putting in that I’m 50… The female F-word — ‘50.’”

At the end of the performance, Marie sobbed.

After Donny sang, “May God keep you in his tender care,” Marie managed through tears to sing, “‘Til he brings us together again.”
