I mentioned in my Anne Heche post today that the last occasion on which I saw Anne on screen was in a 2016 TV Christmas Movie called “Sounds Like Christmas”.
It is a fine coincidence therefore that my final experience of Olivia as an actress was in the 1994 TV Christmas Movie “A Christmas Romance” – sorry Steve I am an incurable romantic who just loves Christmas movies – the REAL ones I mean: not the pretend ones that you and WH watch and hype-up!
It ‘s a great pity that on the big screen Olivia wasn’t able to build more on her massive success in Grease. However a lady who has been in one of the biggest screen box office musicals of all-time; who has been a successful singer and songwriter of great variety and versatility; who has had a prolific TV career; and who had generated a net worth of $60 million at the time of her sad death had certainly one heck of an all-round entertainment career to be envied.
So as an multi-function entertainment icon she certainly deserves her Cogerson page. In a television interview way back in 1980 when she was just 32 that I saw her Xanadu co-star the great Eugene Kelly paid tribute to her as a talented person and a warm human being. RIP.

Hey Harmonice. Thanks for the feedback on our ONJ tribute page. Rest in Peace Olivia/Sandy.
I have only seen one Olivia Newton John movie: Grease. I love that movie and know all the music. Rest in peace
Hey Flora. Thanks for the heads up on her passing and for sharing your thoughts on Olivia Newton-John. I have seen 5 of these movies. I saw her two Travolta movies, the last Gene Kelly movie, her cameo in She’s Having A Baby and most recently saw A Few Best Men….a decent British rom-com. Good stuff. RIP
