Olivia Newton-John, the dulcet-voiced singer from Australia who became a country-pop, folk-pop, rock-pop, disco-pop sensation in the 1970s, starred in the Hollywood musical juggernaut “Grease” and underwent a sultry makeover with her mega-selling 1981 record “Physical,” died Aug. 8 at her ranch in Southern California. She was 73.

Her family announced her death in a statement on Facebook, noting that she “has been a symbol of triumphs and hope for over 30 years sharing her journey with breast cancer.” Additional details were not immediately available, but for many years she owned a 12-acre estate on the Santa Ynez River near Santa Barbara.

Ms. Newton-John was treated for breast cancer in 1992, and 25 years later, in 2017, that it had returned and metastasized. (She subsequently revealed that she had been battling the disease in private since 2013.)

Since her initial diagnosis at 44, Ms. Newton-John had become an advocate for cancer research and awareness, as well as for environmental causes. She sang for presidents and a pope, the sick and the disabled, and promoted music as a form of spiritual therapy, raising millions of dollars to fund the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness and Research Center at Melbourne’s Austin Hospital. Her later albums featured inspirational music about love, friendship and overcoming trauma.

On June 16, 1978, John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John danced their way into theaters. The 110-minute adaptation of Grease, directed by Randal Kleiser, would become a summer box office draw and enduring TV staple. The Hollywood Reporter’s original movie review is below. 

. Grease is like in its bridging of the generation gap through a Top 40s score and a plot that plays up the naivete of a more innocent era (which was still considered plenty dangerous by its elders, who were scandalized by Elvis the Pelvis).

Only slightly less so is the blond, delicately featured Olivia Newton-John, already triumphant in that vast new world of rock concerts and records. She can tear the house apart with a number like “You’re the One That I Want” (with Travolta), and still project a youthful innocence and vulnerability totally in keeping with the character she has been asked to portray. She’s a kind of ‘70s Debbie Reynolds — and I project for her the same cinematic longevity, if she so choose Plot

But what makes it work is its youthful vitality, the tremendous energy and imagination expended on its virtually wall-to-wall song and dance number. Patricia Birch, who choreographed the original Broadway production, is literally tireless in making everything work for camera — in which she is joined by the youthful Randal Kleiser, making his directorial debut in theatrical features. While his trickiness reminded me of Sandrich — as when he intercuts Travolta and Newton-John duetting on “Summer Dreams,” but to two separate groups of listeners — his exuberant camera moves have all the panache and style of Stanley Donen at his very best (as in The Pajama Game. Clearly, Kleiser is a talent to be watched — and nurtured. The visual rhythms that he builds to accompany the songs seem to rise out of the music, then take over on their own
