RIP Olivia Newton-John

Olivia Newton-John, who gained worldwide acclaim for her starring role in "Grease," died Monday morning at age 73, according to her family.

:( She was great. This is very sad.

You beat me by seconds. Here's my post:

Olivia Newton-John, who sang some of the biggest hits of the 1970s and ’80s while recasting her image as the virginal girl next door into a spandex-clad vixen — a transformation reflected in miniature by her starring role in “Grease,” one of the most popular movie musicals of its era — died on Monday at her ranch in Southern California. She was 73.

The death was announced by her husband, John Easterling.

I read in an Israeli newspaper that Olivia Newton-John is the granddaughter of German Jewish physicist and Nobel Prize honoree Max Born. Her memory is a blessing.
