Congrats to the beautiful and talented Olivia Newton-John, who got married to 49-year-old entrepreneur John Easterling at her home in Malibu, California last week, according to reports. This is Olivia’s second marriage.

In 2005, her long-time boyfriend, Patrick McDermott, went missing during a fishing trip on the California coast, and was never found. She’s also struggled with breast cancer and the anorexia of her daughter. She’s such a strong, positive role model who has endured so much with grace. I’m glad to see she’s been able to fall in love again.

Does anyone remember that episode of Kathy Griffin’s show (I think it was recent) where she goes to Australia and people tell her that “hello, cunt-features” is a common greeting there, and so she meets with Olivia Newton-John and asks if she can call her “cunt-features” and the look on Olivia’s face is just priceless? I looked for a clip but couldn’t find one. Anyway. Hilarious. I ::heart:: both of them.

Olivia Newton John and her daughter, Chloe, talk to Woman’s Day magazine about the battle with anorexia that they both seem to have convinced themselves Chloe is winning. When asked about how she’s doing today, Chloe says, “I’m taking very good care of myself now but I’m not going to be like ‘Oh, I eat pizza every day!’” I assure you this girl hasn’t eaten pizza since sometime in 2003. Get healthy, Chloe!! Those legs are NOT sexy and it is NO FUN to be hungry.
