Later this year, Olivia Newton-John is teaming up with Julien's Auctions to sell items from her storied career -- including the famous black pants and leather jacket she wore as Sandy in 1978's smash-hit"Grease."Since the money raised by the auction will go to her Cancer Wellness & Research Center in her native Australia, the icon, 70, had zero compunction about selling anything, including that outfit.

I had stuff in storage in L.A.
"And every time the answer [was yes] ... because it was going to be won by somebody who'd enjoy it and it would help my ...

Legendary actress? A bit thick don't you think?
Positive
One of my all time fav movies. Hope Olivia is doing well. Always have admired her.
Due to a zipper breaking, Olivia had to be sewn into those black pants during filming.
Who the eff cares? It’s not like the country is mourning right now or anything.
Wow
🙏💓Warm wishes to her. Hope all is well.
