She was so beautiful and perfect in Xanadu. I still watch that movie whenever it (rarely) comes on.

Actually got to visit with that beautiful girl before her concert in Auburn, Spring 1977. Was at the Auburn Airport, just finished a cross-country flight, working on my Private license. She landed in a Learjet from Atlanta for her concert later that night. We talked for a few minutes, even more beautiful in person, really personable and out-going. This 20 year old already had 5 year crush going, made my year! Went to the concert that night, fantastic!!

Made a beeline for the Airport afterward, hoping to see her off. They arrived about 10 minutes later, but had a mechanical issue with the jet, and delayed their departure about an hour. We got to hang around and talk to her in the pilot's lounge. A truly, genuine beauty, great person. She talked horses, her secret desire to be a veterinarian, and tired of the hectic schedule. Asked where I was from, talked about my own horses back in Moss Bluff, LA. She talked like we had been friends for years, seemed to enjoy the conversation as much as I certainly did. Rest in peace, Olivia. You will always have a piece of my heart.

Is Travolta radioactive or something?

Kelly Preston and ONJ both died of breast cancer.

So did Diana Hyland.

Played his mom in “The Boy In The Plastic Bubble”, and afterward became his ladyfriend.

Played one season as the mom in “Eight is Enough”, then died of breast cancer.

Thank goodness he’s found a way to be in love without that being much of a danger anymore.
