Daughter of the late, great Olivia Newton-John and Matt Lattanzi, Chloe Lattanzi recently took to Instagram to show off her attempt at an Australian accent.
Lattanzi, 37, is currently spending time in Australia, and preparing for interviews with several news sites when she decided to have a little bit of fun during an Instagram video.
Olivia Newton-John, who passed away last August after a years-long battle with cancer, was honored in Australia over the weekend. A memorial service was held for the star on Sunday, which was broadcasted live. The feed continues to be up for the public to watch until March 5th.
In a video she uploaded to her Instagram account yesterday, Lattanzi spoke about her upcoming plans, all while imitating an Aussie accent.
"Off to do an interview with the Herald Sun. Excited. Really, really pumped," she said. "Then, Sunrise telly. Alright here we go."
"Off in the sneakers, no heels, rockin' the jacket," Lattanzi continued. "Not rocking the camera angles, though."
"All right, see you later. Love you Aussies. I've had too much coffee," Lattanzi said, ending the video.
On it, the text overlay reads, "My terrible Aussie accent. I'm tryin,'" accompanied by a laughing emoji.
Lattanzi, who has more than 142 thousand followers on Instagram, definitely entertained viewers. Thousands of people liked the post, and countless others left comments and shared their love.
Viewers loved it, with some even thinking she sounded like a true Australian. Lattanzi was born in the US and spent most of her time living there, but her mother famously grew up in Australia.
Some compared the star's accent to Kath & Kim, an Australian sitcom from the early 2000s.
Some joked that Lattanzi sounded "bogan," and others, including people from Australia, felt that she was pretty spot on.
First revealing her breast cancer diagnosis in 1992, Newton-John underwent a partial mastectomy in order to remove cancer. In the years following her initial diagnosis, She became an advocate for breast cancer awareness.
Newton-John announced that she had once again been diagnosed with breast cancer, which had further metastasized to her sacrum. She would then undergo further treatment.
On August 8th, 2022, Olivia Newton-John passed away in her home in Southern California. She was 73 years old.
A month after her death, family, and friends of Newton-John attended a private memorial for her. Stars such as Marie Osmond, Leeza Gibbons, and John Travolta attended.
The memorial, which had been in the works for months, had her family in attendance, which included Chloe Lattanzi.
Stars including Elton John, Dolly Parton, and Barry Gibb recorded video tributes for the memorial.
In addition to Newton-John's husband, John Easterling, Lattanzi spoke at the memorial, giving a heartfelt speech in honor of her mother.
"My mom could find the beauty in everything," Lattanzi said.
"My favorite thing to do was watch her watching the birds and the flowers, smelling her roses and the joy it brought to her face was a thing of beauty."
"I loved our snuggles," she continued. "I would crawl into bed with her late at night, even until I was 20 years old. I loved the way she smelled, nothing felt safer to me."
