I am very saddened by the news of Olivia Newton-John’s death. I remember hitting the stars when I met him at my first training camp in Hollywood for Paramount. She is the sweetest and brightest light and I would love to meet her at It’s My Party. Rest in peace my dear, sweet Olivia. pic.twitter.com/4FFgolVQNk

So sad to hear that the incredibly brave, friendly and talented Olivia Newton-John has passed away. Three years ago, at the Grease memorabilia auction in Los Angeles, he told me his favorite song from the movie was “Desperately Depends on You.”
Great song, great movie, great girl. TEARS. pic.twitter.com/K6uteubpPA— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) 8 August 2022
My great friend Olivia Newton John has passed away. She’s the perfect woman, gorgeous, with perfect composure and a touch of Australian sophistication.
The spandex pants at Grease were my inspiration for my Do You Think I’m Sexy era.
RIP Olivia

So sad to hear of Olivia Newton-John’s passing. My first true love as a kid. I loved Grease and its music and also bought and lived in the beautiful house he built in Malibu for a while. May the earth rest in peace for him.
