Now that she has had time to grieve her loss, Rebbie is planning a retu rn to the stage - but she is quick to point out the concerts will not be a tribute to her late brother because she "wouldn’t feel comfortable doin g that".
She says, "I actually performed before my brother passed in Scranton, P ennsylvania and I had sequential (performances) in that area or surroundi ng area. Of course they all came to a halt… I felt now was a good time enough time has passed since his passing." The singer also admits she’s keen for the entire family to reunite on s tage - and has invited her brothers and sisters to join her on the road.
She adds, "I’d love to do a family show - a whole family tour. That wou ld be nice because every time I talk to a reporter - or just fans in gene ral - they always ask about the entire family performing together, and th at’s why I say that."
