THE famous black leather jacket Olivia Newton-John wore in the final scenes of Grease has sold at a charity auction for $US243,200 ($A352,009).

Newton-John organised the event in Beverly Hills, California, to raise money for her Melbourne cancer hospital by auctioning off hundreds of items from her long career.

In addition to the black leather motorcycle jacket, the iconic figure-hugging, black high-waist pants she wore with it sold, along with a signed photograph, for $US162,500 ($A234,000).

“The jacket, of course, was a wonderful way of transitioning into this hot character,” Newton-John said.

The 71-year-old said she will donate a large part of the proceeds to the cancer hospital she founded in Melbourne. About 500 items were up for sale at the Life and Career of Olivia Newton-John auction.
