TOGETHER AGAIN ??
OK! (USA)
9 Nov 2020
“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.

10 Feb 2020
She’s arguably the biggest name to star in this season, so one couldld almost forgive Olivia Newton-john’s daughter Chloe Lattanzi for some diva behaviour. But even the cast have been left gobsmacked by her demands on set.
“She has her own hair and makeup artists, and refuses to let any of the set artists touch her,” says the source. “While the rest of the cast take around 10-15 minutes to get fully ready, Chloe takes hours.
“She also gets final approval of all photos taken of her, so after every photo she runs behind the camera to see how she looks and indicates whether she’d like it re-shot.
“It’s incredibly annoying to production and the rest of the cast, who are left waiting in position until she decides if the images are good enough.”
And it’s not just her diva demands that has 34-year-old Chloe garnering attention. When she’s not on set or checking photos of herself, a source says she is Facetiming her dogs, Peanut and Jelly.
“She Facetimes them several times a day,” says the source. “And when she’s not on the phone to them, she’s talking about them non-stop.”

Enjoying the Everyday: Olivia Newton-John
Closer Weekly
21 Oct 2019
She’s hopelessly devoted to healing. Recently, singer Olivia Newton-John, 71, revealed to journalist Gayle King that she’s determined to live her life despite battling breast cancer again. “I don’t know what my time is, but I need to enjoy my life. So, I’m going to eat a cookie if I want it. And I’m gonna have a cup of tea if I want it. And if I wanna have a little bit of wine, I’m gonna do that,” she said. “Because the joy of life and everyday living has to be a part of that healing process as well.”

Olivia Newton-John and John Easterling reveal how she changed her life with hallucinogenic medicine and cannabis

Olivia Newton-John was the picture of health, holding hands with husband John Easterling as they told of how she is winning her battle against stage four breast cancer.
The couple was speaking onstage at the Oregon Convention Centre in Portland at the 2019 Cannabis Science Conference to discuss their experiences with cannabis and plant-based medicines.
Newton-John, wearing a white shirt and black jeans, was given a standing ovation from a packed audience that included daughter Chloe Lattanzi and her fiance James Driskill as she walked onstage with her husband on Thursday afternoon local time.
In an emotional 40-minute talk, the couple spoke openly about their relationship and also revealed how she had taken the powerful hallucinogenic medicine Ayahuasca on trip to Peru with vitamin mogul Easterling, a year before they were married.
She said she had visions afterwards, including seeing herself and Easterling “in another lifetime”.
Newton-John said the experience helped her cope with the disappearance of her former boyfriend, Patrick McDermott, who vanished off a California fishing boat in 2005.
She said the drug helped her get off anti depressants and that it also “opened up her heart” to her new love.
The couple talked about how they first met in the early 1990s and how Newton-John is now using cannabis grown by Easterling to combat her cancer.
Newton-John also said she has weaned herself off morphine painkillers with cannabis, which she called “the most amazing thing”.
Easterling said: “Olivia’s cancer markers are moving in the right direction. This is the third recurrence of stage four metastatic breast cancer and this is not normally what you see happen. We’re absolutely thrilled”.
Earlier, he had walked on stage and said: “I’m Amazon John and you know my lovely wife Olivia Newton-John. We’re here to share with you our experiences with plant medicine.
“Essentially, I’m a treasure hunter and Olivia is a treasure. That kind of explains out relationship!”
A smiling Newton-John said: “I’m thrilled to be here. When we were talking about this event we realised our whole lives together has been about plants and plant medicine.
“In 1992 when I had breast cancer for the first time he gave me some herbs to take that really improved my mobility and me consciousness and I felt so much better from the moment I started taking them. From then on, herbs have been a part of my life.
Newton-John told how she and John first met in the early 1990s when she went to a health convention with friends where he was giving a talk.
“My friends took their mother who was 82 years old and she took some of the herbs home and afterwards she apparently had so much energy she was up all night cleaning her closets. So the next day she said to me I want to go back there and get more herbs from that man.
“So they introduced me to him and they invited him to come to California to do a talk on the rainforest. “After the talk we invited him to stay with us in my guesthouse and he left early in the morning, I didn’t see him leave, but he drove off a cliff and fractured his back.
“We received a call from the hospital with a message saying John was refusing to take painkillers and could we bring his own painkiller called Recoverzon which was his own formula of herbs.
“It was the first time I was really aware of the power of plants because John came back to our house, Chloe was about nine at the time, and we massaged his back with the Recoverzon and to my amazement he left the next day.
“The doctors told him he was the fastest-healing broken back patient they had ever seen so the herbs were working internally and through the skin.
“I was going though breast cancer at the time and John started sending me herbs that really helped me a lot. “I’ve been taking Amazon herbs since then.”
John said he had no idea who Olivia was at the time they first met and “wasn’t into her music.”
He added: “She was living in Hollywood so I figured she must be a nut case!” Olivia, laughing, said: “You proved that right!” John added: “But the more I got to know her I realised she has a genuine caring for other people and animals, plants and the rainforests.
“We saw each other at an event we both supported once a year but we became friends.”
She also told how just over a decade ago she had previously given Easterling a puppy and with years later he brought the dog to an event they were both at in Florida....

LES SOUVENIRS DE JOHN TRAVOLTA
THE SCREEN ICON LOOKS BACK AT HIS EARLY ENCOUNTERS WITH LIZ TAYLOR, GENE KELLY AND MORE MOVIE GREATS
Closer Weekly
16 Sep 2019— Bruce Fretts
How early encounters with Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor and other screen giants changed the actor’s life forever.
Not long after landing his breakout role as Vinnie Barbarino on Welcome Back, Kotter in 1975, John Travolta was welcomed into the Hollywood Legends Club. “I was invited to these parties with these big film stars, like Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman,” John said during a recent panel at Wizard World Chicago. “I couldn’t believe I was even being asked to go to the same events that they were. I’d be sitting at a table with them, and I’d be like, ‘I’m
dreaming — this can’t be real.’ ”
When John earned big-screen stardom a few years later with Saturday Night Fever and Grease, he became an even hotter commodity among the Old Hollywood elite. “I’d have dinner with Marlon Brando, Barbara Stanwyck, Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly,” recalls John, 65, with awe. “They would advise me and help me and love me.”
As John remembers it, “that older group of people liked me even better than my own group of contemporaries. For some reason, all the old-timers wanted to hang with me, and yet my peers weren’t that interested, but it’s okay! Having dinner with Barbara Stanwyck, Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire, that’s epic. I wouldn’t have traded that for anything.”
LOOK WHO’S TALKING
John has kept in touch with some of his costars from his early days, like Grease love interest Olivia Newton-John. “She’s doing great, and she looks fantastic,” John said of the pop star, who’s battling cancer, at the recent LA premiere of his movie The Fanatic. “We were together about three months ago, and we text each other all the time.”
He’s eager to work again with Kirstie Alley, his leading lady in the Look Who’s Talking movies. “She’s my best girlfriend,” John gushes. “I would do anything with Kirstie.”
Would that include reprising their roles in the upcoming reboot of the Look Who’s Talking franchise? “It’s the first I heard of it, like hours ago, so I haven’t even really thought about it very much,” says John. “But you know, she’s my soulmate. So let’s see what happens, huh?”
Speaking about their relationship, Newton-John revealed that her husband grows her cannabis to help her combat her cancer.
And in fact, the singer also revealed this had helped her to wean herself off morphine, which she had been taking to deal with her illness.
