Donny Osmond has revealed that Michael Jackson used to call him and would regularly ask for advice about his home life in an effort to learn the key to balancing his family and his career.

Osmond told the New York Daily News that he has been in show business for 50 years, and the secret is stability, and that is home.

He said Jackson would call him once in a while and ask him about what his home life was like.

The 'Puppy Love' hitmaker asserted that the late singer never had that kind of stability.
