Quand Olivia Newton-John parrainait une jeune de Bariquand Alphand 

Monaco-Matin10 Aug 2022 (Photo DR) 

Olivia Newton-John s’est éteinte à l’âge de 73 ans. Figure de Grease, l’actrice et chanteuse anglo-australienne Olivia NewtonJohn, morte lundi, était aussi une femme de coeur. Les anciens pensionnaires de Bariquand Alphand peuvent en témoigner. La célébrité des années 80 avait en effet parrainé une athlète issue de l’établissement mentonnais, Marie Rachon, à l’occasion des International Special Olympics – sorte de Jeux olympiques pour les personnes en situation de handicap mental – organisé en hiver 1989 en Californie et au Nevada. 
1 400 sportifs originaires de vingt pays différents étaient représentés. Marie Rachon avait alors remporté une médaille d’or de slalom dans la station de ski de Squaw valley. Cela méritait bien une photo avec la star et son beau pull d’époque, aux côtés de François Jacquot, cadre historique de Bariquand Alphand. Ce dernier souligne d’ailleurs qu’Olivia Newton-John a ensuite « continué à garder le contact avec les pensionnaires » de la Fondation.

RETRO MEMO





Newton-John 'plans to return home'

SYDNEY: Olivia Newton-John plans to return to live in Australia,according to one of her closest friends.
She wants to settle down here so that she can have and raise her children in the Australian environment, says Sydney actress Chantel Contouri, who has just returned to Australia after spending a fortnight with Olivia and boyfriend Lee Kramer.




She has asked Miss Contouri to look for a farm for her to buy. "She think's Australia is the best place in the world to live and she's thinking about having children in the next couple of years", Miss Contouri said yesterday.
"She has asked me to look for a farm for her on which she could live and bring up any children".

■ The two entertainers have known each other for 13 years and shared flats in London.
It was Miss Contouri who introduced Olivia to Lee Kramer. "They are more settled now than at
anytime in the last five years", Miss Contouri said.
They are very, very happy together though everyone tried to break them up.
"Olivia is not one of the Los Angeles set and if she is going to have children she wants to devote herself entirely to them.
"I am certain she will continue to record albums and go back to America for tours and appearances".

Olivia Newton-John diagnosed with cancer for third time

Star
216 Sep 2018



OLIVIA Newton-John (pic) says she has been diagnosed with cancer for the third time in three decades.

The four-time Grammy winner, who will turn 70 on Sept 26, told Australian news programme Sunday Night doctors found a tumour in her lower back in 2017.

Newton-John says she’s “treating it naturally and doing really well.” The Grease star says for pain, she is taking cannabis oil, made from marijuana her husband grows in California. She has undergone radiation treatments and has cut sugar out of her diet. She said: “I believe I will win over it.” She added she hopes her native Australia will legalise medical marijuana.

Newton-John was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, undergoing a partial mastectomy and reconstruction. She was diagnosed with breast cancer again in 2013. —AP

OLIVIA: WHY I’LL NEVER WATCH THIS AWFUL TELEMOVIE!


Olivia Newton-john was ‘horrified’ by the miniseries about her inspirational life starring Delta
Woman’s Day (Australia)
14 May 2018



Un grand merci à Kay !


Olivia Newton-john is so appalled by the “made-up” miniseries about her life, starring fellow cancer survivor and singer Delta Goodrem, she has vowed never to watch it. 
Her anger comes as scenes were aired where Delta depicts Olivia’s first traumatic diagnosis with breast cancer in 1992 – just as the legendary singer is once again fighting the killer disease. “Finding out a TV miniseries is being made about you without your consent, participation or knowledge is bad enough,” Olivia’s daughter Chloe Lattanzi reveals in an exclusive interview with Woman’s Day. “But poor Mum had to deal with it right in the middle of battling cancer. It made me so angry that additional stress was being put on her at a time when all she really needed to be doing was concentrating all her energy on getting better.” Chloe says she was furious at how her 69-year-old mum was left reeling when the Olivia: Hopelessly Devoted To You miniseries got the green light despite Olivia’s opposition, at a time when her focus should have been her health. “What’s upsetting is the way it’s been done. Not one part of it has come directly from our family, it is completely unauthorised. Nobody asked us to take part or consulted us about accuracy.

“We didn’t want people to see some of the toughest periods we have endured as a family and view them simply as lighthearted TV. We are people with feelings like anyone else, and it’s weird that some of the heaviest and saddest times of our lives have been turned into a fictional TV miniseries for the sole purpose of entertainment.”

Chloe says her amazing mum only relented and decided to record two songs with Delta for the soundtrack of the miniseries because it will help raise funds for her beloved cancer and wellness centre in Melbourne.

“The fact mum agreed to do the songs says everything about the kind of big-hearted woman she is,” she says.

“Because no matter how much she hated the idea of the show, she was determined to turn a negative into a positive. Thankfully, the one positive thing about cancer is that it does give you perspective,” Chloe says, adding that Olivia has long been a mentor to Delta and wanted someone she knew well to play her if the miniseries had to go ahead.

‘Mum had to deal with it right in the middle of battling cancer’

Olivia has told friends she gave Delta, who was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at 18, her blessing in the hope she and the producers would treat her life with respect and sensitivity.

“Nobody should ever have to endure cancer, but one positive it gives you is a reminder to not let trivial things bother you any more, to focus on all things positive. Despite my mum being incredibly upset about this show, she’s doing her best to try and not let it bother her,” Chloe says.

“When your health is in danger, you have to get your priorities straight and, thankfully, after all she’s endured, my mum today is the strongest she’s ever been.

“But it was something I wish we didn’t have to deal with. We already had so much to contend with when Mum found out her breast cancer had returned [Olivia found out her cancer had returned and spread to her spine last year].”

Olivia broke her silence last week to reveal that since she couldn’t stop the series going ahead, she tried to get something “positive” out of it by raising funds for the Olivia Newton-john Cancer, Wellness & Research Centre.

“I was very anxious. I didn’t have control – they’d do it without my permission anyway,” says Olivia, who appeared nervous when she said Delta assured her the story was “lovely”.

Chloe, 32, says her family are distraught the TV series is revisiting their worst times.

“We were all horrified when we heard about it, how it would be rehashing dark moments from our past, and now we can’t do anything about it.

“I keep reminding myself how loved Mum is in Australia, and we have both been through so much, we won’t let a made-up version of our lives ruin how far we have come.”

BREAKING NEWS




Le premier ministre Daniel Andrews, Olivia Newton-John et la ministre de la Santé Jill Hennessy se sont adressés aux médias à Melbourne au sujet d'un investissement de 18 millions de dollars dans le Olivia Newton-John Welnness & Cancer Centre de  Melbourne. Le premier ministre Andrews à dit que l'investissement aidera à traiter les cancers rares.

Olivia Newton-John a visité le parlement de l'État avec le premier ministre Daniel Andrews et la ministre de la Santé, Jill Hennessy, pour annoncer le financement d'une machine, qui permettra de mieux traiter les tumeurs.


"Je suis incroyablement excitée et incroyablement reconnaissante", a déclaré Mme Newton-John aux journalistes. "Je suis tellement ravie que cela va aider d'autres patients atteints de cancer qui vivent des métastases, et cette nouvelle machine va changer leur vie."


Les patients atteints de cancer auront accès à une technologie de pointe et rare au centre Olivia Newton-John dans le cadre du déploiement annoncé mardi.

La machine IRM-linac sera bientôt commandée et commencera à traiter les patients à partir de 2019 et finira par aider environ 200 patients par an. Actuellement, les patients subissent une IRM avant la radiothérapie, mais le nouveau service fournit une IRM dans la salle de traitement, ce qui améliore la précision. Il améliorera le traitement des cancers plus difficiles comme les cancers du cerveau, de la tête, du cou, du pancréas et du foie.


Les 10 millions de dollars restants serviront à établir un centre de recherche au centre Olivia Newton-John. «Ce coup de pouce de 18 millions de dollars vise à changer des vies et à sauver ces vies», a déclaré M. Andrews. "Rien de tout cela n'est possible sans des personnes comme Olivia qui ont transformé leur propre expérience contre le cancer en une opportunité de récolter des fonds, de sensibiliser, de sensibiliser et de pousser chacun de nous à faire mieux ..."
