And the turquoise I put on as a wrap-around because I didn’t like the overall shape. “He said on the phone: ‘This is Rod Stewart.’ I said: ‘Sure it is.’ And he said: ‘Are you always this rude?’ And that sort of sealed the deal.” They forged a long and lasting friendship. The NGV was one of the buyers when Newton-John [auctioned off](https://www.smh.com.au/culture/celebrity/olivia-newton-john-s-grease-outfit-sold-for-more-than-double-price-20191104-p5379i.html) many of her career mementos in 2019. Now 73, and living in Melbourne where she has raised her son for the last 20 years, those ties are often the cause of sadness. In Vegas, they’d make surreptitious late-night visits to a drug store and try on makeup and laugh at the silliness of it all. And while it wasn’t Thiemeyer who put her in those famous black leather pants, this was a fashion theme she applied more broadly to Newton-John’s videos and performances that drove a pop music trend. She met a young Bon Scott, then in a band called The Valentines. She was no shrinking violet, but there were no signs early on that she would one day make her mark as a master of the frills and fads of the fashion world. Thiemeyer was present at the creation of dozens of celebrated music careers. Her friendship with the star spanned half a century, and was the spark for a story that has never really been told. She was the person who would confide in me if she wasn’t sure about something.Fleur Thiemeyer on Olivia Newton-John What she did have was a reservoir of nerve and determination forged growing up in postwar Melbourne.

How Olivia Newton-John spread joy for decades through her ... (ABC News)

Describing the star as the embodiment of "generosity and kindness", "beautiful inside and out" and "a true professional", Australians share their special ...

I always said if I ever had a daughter, I would call her Olivia and I did in 1994. I turned to the passenger in the seat next to me and asked her who the woman in front of us was. We completed the flight and the stewardess came down and asked the woman if she would remain on board until the rest of us had got off so that the flight crew could get a photo with her. At 21, I became the carer of a cancer patient and would listen to Olivia's music constantly. A group got on the plane late in the seats in front. My parents named me after her when i was born in 1983, in honour of their adoration and admiration for her. I feel so fortunate that I had the opportunity to talk with her. Dad would select the station on one leg of the journey and I would (obviously) pick a "pop" station for the other leg. I was completely starstruck and became at the moment a 40 year old fan boy. The fantastical nature of the film, and the incredible soundtrack, would influence my cultural and creative tastes for the rest of my life. Dad told me when I was older he thought it a bit risque, but our 9 and 7 year old selves were oblivious to the quips intended for the older audience members. I grew up with the original patriarchal father and stay-at-home mother from the Snowy and Riverina regions of NSW.
