Olivia Newton-John (Sep 26,1948- Aug 8, 2022)


Olivia Newton-John, who soared to international stardom as both a singer and movie star has died.

Olivia's husband, John Easterling, says she died peacefully at her ranch in Southern California Monday morning, surrounded by family and friends. Olivia has battled breast cancer for more than 30 years, and a specific cause of death was not given, although a source close to Olivia told TMZ, "After a 30-year cancer journey, she lost her battle to metastatic breast cancer."

Olivia hit it big in 1971 with songs like "If Not for You," and in 1973 "Let Me Be There." She followed that up with a monster hit, "Have You Never Been Mellow."

Her huge break came in 1978 when she starred opposite John Travolta in "Grease." Her role as Sandy was iconic, as were several songs from the movie, "You're the One that I Want," "Summer Nights," and "Hopelessly Devoted to You."

The movie propelled Olivia to new heights, and she followed it up with movies like "Xanadu."

Olivia's biggest hit was "Physical" in 1981, which stayed at #1 for 10 weeks, breaking all records in the '80s. She remained an environmental and animal rights activist throughout her career.

Olivia was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, but it went into remission and it came back in 2013. It went back into remission but surfaced again in 2017.

Olivia, who was British but raised in Australia, married Matt Lattanzi back in 1984 ... they met while filming "Xanadu." They had a child, Chloe Rose in 1986. They divorced in 1995.

She married John Easterling in 2008. He's the founder of Amazon Herb Co. Olivia was 73.

She was drunk and crashed into a house and was set on fire. Thankfully no one else was hurt, she endangered many lives.
Whole story is a mess.
Her whole life was...
Just know, she was driven to mental anguish..

"Her father raped her as a kid and then died of AIDS triggering her brother to commit suicide by driving into tree - before her sister died of cancer... and her mother says she's going to hell for being a lesbian"

Correction: No alcohol was found in her system after blood tests were taken.
Cocaine and Fentanyl were both present.

The alcohol rumor was because some internet sleuths decided that whatever was in her cup holder was a bottle of vodka. People need to just wait and stop thinking they know more.

They did say they're doing more tests (though I don't know if those have been canceled since her death) to determine if the fentanyl was from what the hospital gave her or if it was in her system before.

I cannot stand reading stories of people driving under the influence. There is literally NO EXCUSE for that shit. There is Uber, Lyft, and cabs. It pisses me off so much when people drive under the influence and kill innocent people.

The ONLY positive of this story is she didn't take anyone else with her.

I feel badly for her children. They didn't deserve a mother who couldn't find it in her to conquer her demons for them. I read her oldest son's message on Friday and it was quite a nice, mature message. No matter what happened, she seemed to have raised good kids. I hope they stay that way.

RIP to Anne Heche. I first saw her on Another World and I've been a fan ever since. It's an absolute shame she couldn't get better and her life tragically ended this way.

This is such an incredibly sad situation. Such a beautiful actress that ultimately went in such a horrific way.

Likewise, It infuriates me hearing of people driving under the influence it’s beyond selfish and wreckless and as you say there’s never an excuse for such poor behaviour. I’ve personally seen the aftermath of such careless behaviour and it’s a sight that’s stuck with me for over 20 years.

This is a hard one to wrap your head around, I read that she was actually really close to home, but this just goes to show it doesn’t matter how well you ‘think’ you can conduct yourself to make it home under the influence.

Hopefully this tragedy will make others re-think the risk of driving under the influence even if it’s just a couple of blocks away. :-(

Unfortunately sexual childhood trauma is one of the hardest to keep in the past and try to move on from, there’s triggers all around and the demons constantly haunt you. That’s also what infuriates me, women/mothers need to do better.
