Today I chatted with Donny Osmond. That almost feels silly to say. Not that he's silly, but because he's been a part of my life for about as long as Santa Claus has. Fortunately, I like him even more now than I did a few hours ago. Donny has spent his entire career in the spotlight, and at 51 years of age, he looks just about as great as he ever has.

He's performing in Vegas right now and hosting a new show on ABC called Rediscovered, airing December 22 at 9 PM ET, which sounds pretty fun. Rediscovered gives adults who unsuccessfully auditioned to be a Mouseketeer 20 years ago a second chance at stardom and a $50,000 prize. Donny and Marie were sold on the concept and are enjoying the opportunity to see these "regular people" shine on stage. Read on to learn more about the show, how Donny stays fit, and whether or not he's going to take his shot at Dancing With the Stars!

Fitz: So you're back on prime-time television. What drew you to Rediscovered?

Donny: Marie and I just loved the concept. It's been amazing to see these regular people dragged out of their normal lives and put back on the stage. The show is fun, the audiences have been really receptive and the contestants have proven to be terrific.

Fitz: Since the contestants haven't been performing for a living, are any of them disastrously horrible?

Grey's Anatomy star Justin Chambers says he checked in to UCLA's psych ward recently because of a longtime sleep disorder.

"It's an issue that I've had for a while," Chambers told PEOPLE magazine in his first interview since the incident. "It's a biological sleep disorder. Your mind keeps racing, and your body is tired. It wants to go to sleep, but it can't."

At his wit's end, the 37-year-old actor, husband, and father of five says he was sleeping no more than an hour a week during the two months leading up to his hospital stay.

We all know sleep is vital to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. It's a topic covered here at That's Fit all the time. To brush up on your sleep smarts so you can get the quality rest -- and the benefits that come from rest -- you so deserve, check out these recent sleepy posts.
