    Why do Wayne Newton fans rip on him so bad? I love that man forever 🥰😍 he is my escape lately. I cannot get enough of him 🥰

      Right? If they rip on him, they ain’t a fan. Why can’t people just be kind is what I want to know. Anyways, proud Wayniac here! Him and Jack Jones, last of the Greats!

    Wayne Newton was one of the greatest talents. Sad where he's at today. But when he was good. Damn. And giving his time to help children.

      why it is sad where he is today, minus the plastic surgeries the guy is still very talented, still signs pretty good and we all know he is a fantastic musician! So, while he is still around let's enjoy the legend because that is what he is now, 74 years in the business that to me is what a legend is made of! Long live Wayne Newton "Kind of Las Vegas"!

    This is one of the more dramatic, yet hilarious, versions of "You'll Never Walk Alone." When he tells Louis Brown to "Hold it right there," you know he's up to something!

      Well you need some facts to back off your comments: What does it matter how his hair looks, he sings, plays the guitar, banjo, trompet, drums, piano, violin, steel guitar, what exactly is your talent if you have any. And we don't judge a man by the colour of his hair, texture or the stuff he puts in it, (his personal choice if you ask me as with his choice to have plastic surgery) and even with that he still look fantastic. So, long live the "King of Las Vegas"!
