Olivia Newton-John

Olivia Newton-John, born in Cambridge, England, was raised in Melbourne, Australia, where her father was a headmaster of Ormond College. She entered show business at the age of 12 and later won a television talent contest, which took her to London, England. In London, she formed a duo and recorded her first single, a version of Bob Dylan's "'Til You Say You'll Be Mine." Newton-John became part of Cliff Richard's touring show and made her breakthrough with the single "If Not for You." For the next two years, she had success in Britain but failed to make an impact in the US. She then moved to Los Angeles in 1974 and recorded the hit song "Let Me Be There," which won the Grammy Award for Best Country Vocal Performance, Female. Olivia's transformation from a country singer to a pop singer was complete in 1978 when she starred in the movie version of the popular Broadway musical Grease. The movie was a hit and produced three huge hit singles, including "You're the One That I Want." Olivia Newton-John skillfully made the transition to popular mainstream soft rock singer and became one of the most successful vocalists of the '70s and '80s. Her sweet voice suited both country-pop and soft rock perfectly, which kept her at the top of the charts until the mid-'80s. Olivia Newton-John's '70s and '80s hits remained soft rock and adult contemporary staples into the '90s and 2000s.
