A fan paid $243K for the black leather jacket that Olivia Newton-John wore in Grease, only to give it back to her as a surprise gift.
You know the jacket I'm talking about, right?
It's iconic.
I got chills. They're multiplying.
But in all seriousness, this was a lewk. No leather jacket in the world could top this one.
Just earlier this year, she revealed that she has battled cancer three times, and is still not out of the woods. So, this is a cause that she probably holds near and dear.
After nine months of chemotherapy, she was declared cancer-free.
Unfortunately, it then spread even further into her lower back.
She had decided to keep her real second diagnosis a secret.
She also didn't want to fuel the rumors that she was on her deathbed.
"The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated," she said, adding "I'm doing great."
In fact, she doesn't even like to say that she's fighting or battling cancer. Instead, she prefers to say she is "thriving" against, or "winning over" cancer.
And the person who donated $243K for her Grease jacket decided to gift it back to her.
“It should not sit in a billionaire’s closet for country club bragging rights."
Understandably, Olivia was shocked at the buyer's generosity.
“You’re the best, you’re the best! I’m so grateful. This is the most beautiful present, but mainly it’s your heart that I’m grateful for.”
“Yes,” she said without hesitation. “It was always my dream to do that, so yes!”
That's true kindness if I've ever seen it.
Let us know what you think of Olivia Newton-John's Grease jacket being returned to her after being bought for $243K!
Needless to say, it's been a great week for Grease fans!
Here's a video of Olivia and John singing Sandy.
I know, right?
THANK YOU DANNY AND SANDY!
