OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN PERFORMER AND PHILANTHROPIST ONJ (above) won the hearts of millions with her sweet voice and her famous role of Sandy in Grease, but it is her contribution to improving survival rates and the lives of women living with cancer that will be her greatest legacy with the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness & Research Centre in Heidelberg.

TOGETHER AGAIN ??

 “John and Olivia had so much fun filming Grease, they’d do it all over again,” says an insider. 
We’ve got chills! John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, stars of 1978’s hallowed teen musical Grease, are dusting off their moves for the film’s hotly anticipated prequel. 

An insider reports that while rising stars will play younger versions of lead roles Danny and Sandy, John, 66, and Olivia, 72, are being courted to make showstopping cameos. 
“Producers want them for a big number where they sing and dance with their younger counterparts,” spills the insider. 
“It’s hammy, but it’s what fans have wanted to see for years.” 

The upbeat news comes three months after John’s wife, Kelly Preston, passed away, and after a breast cancer recurrence for Olivia, who’s since reported she’s doing “really good.” “Olivia’s role all depends on her health,” says the insider, “but John wants to do it if she does — it’ll be cathartic for him to get his mind on something positive.”

I'M GRATEFUL FOR EVERY DAY THE BELOVED SINGER OPENS UP ABOUT HER HEALTH BATTLE, LENDING A HAND TO AN OLD FRIEND, AND HOW SHE ENVISIONS A WORLD FREE FROM CANCER 

Closer Weekly 
9 Nov 2020— Reporting by Katie Bruno 


She doesn’t ride anymore, but Olivia Newton-John takes delight in the miniature horses she keeps on her California ranch. Whenever she is feeling a little down, Harry and Winston, with their dark eyes, gentle nuzzles and sweet dispositions, boost her spirits. “I try to do something for myself every day that I love,” she tells Closer exclusively. 
“A lot of times it’s going down and seeing my horses or sitting out in the garden. I feel very grateful for all of that.” 
 
Taking pleasure in being alive has become essential for Olivia. The Australianreared star was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992 and thought she had defeated the disease twice, only to learn in 2017 that it had metastasized and spread to her bones. But thanks to her positive attitude and a combination of therapies, Olivia, 72, is thriving. “I’ve been through it so many times that it’s like, ‘Oh, here we go again,’” she reveals. “I have a sense of humor about it.” And if she does feel a case of the blues coming on, “I pull myself back and try and live in the moment, because the moment is all we have,” she says. 
“I’m extremely grateful — and enjoying everything.” The recent passing of Kelly Preston, the wife of her Grease co-star John Travolta, hit Olivia particularly hard. “I’ve lost too many friends to cancer. 
Kelly was such a beautiful, radiant, lovely woman,” says Olivia, who immediately sought out John, 66, and continues to offer him love and support. 
“It was an incredible tragedy.” The sanctuary of her California ranch has brought comfort during the pandemic. “I feel like I’ve been traveling and living out of a suitcase my whole life, so I’m just enjoying my time with my husband and animals,” shares Olivia, who’s also been indulging her artistic side by painting and doing a little redecorating. 
“Just having days where I don’t have to be somewhere has been amazing,” she says. “I watched a whole season come and go, which I don’t think I’ve done in one place before.”  

LOOKING FORWARD 

But Olivia has not been idle. She recently launched the Olivia Newton-John Foundation to explore alternative treatments for cancer — including cannabis, which she has been using since her husband John Easterling, 68, a longtime advocate of plant medicine, urged her to try it a few years ago. 
“He’s an expert — he grows it and makes me tinctures, which has helped me immensely with pain, inflammation, sleep and anxiety,” she explains. “Having had surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, [I think] it would be wonderful if we could find kinder ways of treating people with cancer.” 
 
On Nov. 30, Julien’s Auctions will begin accepting bids on 300 pieces of Olivia’s personal memorabilia to raise money for her foundation. “There’s music items I’ve signed, clothing and Zoom calls, so people can bid on having a chat with me,” explains Olivia. 

Overall, the singer has been feeling well, but she never takes a good day for granted and follows a strict regimen. “I take my vitamins, my herbs,” says the star, who also recently changed her diet. “I’ve been eating vegan for the last few months because my daughter [singer Chloe Lattanzi, 34,] is visiting me and she’s a vegan,” she says. “I’m feeling very good on it.” 

So good that Olivia has agreed to film a cameo role in a new movie scheduled to begin shooting in 2021. Acting and singing, however, aren’t her biggest ambitions these days. “I think I’ve accomplished everything I dreamt of and more,” admits Olivia, reflecting on her 50-year career. “Now I want to give back and find the answers to a world beyond cancer. That’s my dream.”

 Olivia and John are close with Chloe, and her fiancé, James Driskill. Olivia has one child, daughter Chloe Lattanzi, from her first marriage to actor Matt Lattanzi. Olivia “She was a beautiful light in the world,” says Olivia of her friend Kelly Preston.

Why sexist is NOT the word 

ONJ hits out at Grease critics

SEXIST ISN’T THE WORD! GREASE IS ‘JUST A FUN LOVE STORY’ 

Irish Daily Mail / Scottish Daily Mail / Daily Mail.

27 Oct 2020




IT has faced modern crit- icism for promoting the stereotype that a woman must ultimately change who she is to bag the man of her dreams. But Olivia Newton- John has now rubbished claims that the 1978 hit musical Grease is sexist and insisted it is just a ‘fun love story’ about a ‘girl who loves a guy’. 
 
The actress, 72, played good girl Sandy, opposite John Travolta’s rebellious Danny, in the tale of a mismatched teenage couple in 1950s America. 
 At the end of the film, Sandy ditches her cardigans in favour of a skin-tight catsuit, high heels and red lipstick to win Danny over, while he attempts to tone down his wild ways. ‘Everyone forgets that, at the end, he changes for her, too,’ Newton-John told The Guardian. 
 ‘It’s just a girl who loves a guy, and she thinks if she does that, he’ll like her. And he thinks if he does that, she’ll like him. ‘ I think that’s pretty real. 
People do that for each other. It was a fun love story.’ Sandy’s decision to go against her nature and dress provocatively to impress Danny at the end of the film has been dubbed sexist in recent years. Meanwhile, last year it was reported that a prequel was in the works, focusing on Danny and Sandy’s first meeting. 






Olivia Newton-John réfute les affirmations selon lesquelles la comédie musicale à succès de 1978, Grease, est sexiste et a insisté sur le fait qu'il ne s'agissait que d'une «histoire d'amour amusante» sur une «fille qui aime un mec». 

L’actrice a bien joué Sandy, face au rebelle Danny interprété par John Travolta, dans l’histoire d’un couple d’adolescents dépareillé dans l’Amérique des années 1950. 

 À la fin du film, Sandy abandonne ses cardigans au profit d'une combinaison moulante, de talons hauts et de rouge à lèvres pour séduire Danny, alors qu'il tente d'atténuer ses manières sauvages. «Tout le monde oublie qu’à la fin, il change aussi pour elle», a déclaré Newton-John au Guardian. 
 «C’est juste une fille qui aime un mec, et elle pense que si elle fait ça, il l’aimera. Et il pense que s’il fait ça, elle l’aimera. «Je pense que c’est assez réel. Les gens font ça les uns pour les autres. C'était une histoire d'amour amusante. » 

La décision de Sandy d'aller à l'encontre de sa nature et de s'habiller de manière provocante pour impressionner Danny à la fin du film a été qualifiée de sexiste ces dernières années. 

Pendant ce temps, l’année dernière, il a été rapporté qu’une préquelle était en préparation, axée sur la première rencontre de Danny et Sandy.

Jolie supputation ..... 

Olivia Newton-john 
Woman’s Day (Australia)
26 Oct 2020 

 It’s widely reported in the US that Scientology stalwart John Travolta, 66 – who has claimed he has miracle healing powers through his faith – is leaning on his old friend Olivia, 72, as he copes with the recent passing of his wife Kelly Preston, who died of breast cancer. “Olivia’s living with stage four breast cancer, so she knows what he’s going through,” says a source. “But the downside is, he’s never quite gotten past the fact that he’d love her to join the church. He truly believes Scientology is the greatest thing that’s ever happened to him, and he wants to share that with Olivia. He thinks it couldn’t hurt for her to take on some of its teachings.”

Il est largement rapporté aux États-Unis que le pilier de la Scientologie John Travolta, 66 ans - qui a affirmé avoir des pouvoirs de guérison miracle grâce à sa foi - s'appuie sur sa vieille amie Olivia, 72 ans, alors qu'il fait face au décès récent de sa femme Kelly Preston, qui est morte d'un cancer du sein. 

«Olivia vit avec un cancer du sein de stade quatre, alors elle sait ce qu’il traverse», déclare une source. «Mais l’inconvénient est qu’il n’a jamais tout à fait dépassé le fait qu’il aimerait qu'elle rejoigne l’église. Il croit vraiment que la Scientologie est la plus grande chose qui lui soit jamais arrivée, et il veut partager cela avec Olivia. Il pense que cela ne pourrait pas lui faire de mal d’accepter certains de ses enseignements. » ..
