Remembering Olivia Newton-John

Remembering Olivia Newton-John

Author: Randy Slovacek August 8, 2023 Duration: 55:40
I’m going to take a slight pivot from LGBTQ news this episode. As some listeners - or readers of The Randy Report blog - may know, my husband Michael is a world class entertainment publicist. And for nearly 25 years, he worked closely with 4-time Grammy Award winner, international pop star and actress, Olivia Newton-John. Over the years, Olivia became a very dear part of our family. In fact, in 2019, she officiated the renewal of our wedding vows on our 25th anniversary. As we all know, sadly, Olivia passed away on August 8, 2022. In the months since, Michael and I haven’t said much publicly about our time with Olivia because in part - as Michael taught me years ago - the publicist never “becomes” the story. As we reach the anniversary of her passing, Michael and I wanted to take a moment to answer some questions we’ve received over the years from the fans about our time with Olivia. And so, with that…say hello Michael. To sponsor Michael’s steps at Olivia’s Walk for Wellness: https://www.walkforwellness.com.au/michael-caprio
