This just in: Marie Osmond will do a marathon doll-signing event from 2-5 p.m. this Friday.

Don't bother bringing along your Bratz or Barbies, though. And forget about that Barry Manilow bobblehead. Osmond will be signing only her own dolls, of course, and those have to be purchased on the spot from the Promenade Gift Shop at the Flamingo.

Osmond, who is co-starring with brother Donny at the Flamingo Showroom, is bringing along piles of her newly released, Vegas showgirl “Flamingo Belle” dolls ($99.95 plus tax), and other dolls from her collection, available for purchase.

Among the dolls in her expanding branded doll empire is this terrifying effigy of her big brother as a child. Didn't know there was a "Chucky" Osmond, did you?

Here's comedian Kathy Griffin, live at Madison Square Garden, dishing Marie and her dolls, Donny and "Dancing With the Stars." (very mean, very funny and NSFW for language -- wear headphones if you're at the office).
