John Travolta Tears Up Paying Tribute to Olivia Newton-John at 2023 Oscars
Ойын-сауық
John Travolta gets emotional at the 95th Academy Awards. The actor made a special appearance to introduce the In Memoriam segment, which featured a performance from Lenny Kravitz. John's introduction paid special tribute to his 'Grease' co-star, Olivia Newton-John, who died last August after battling cancer. John couldn't hold back his tears as he said, 'They've touched our hearts, they made us smile and became dear friends who we will always remain hopelessly devoted to.' Olivia, of course, sang 'Hopelessly Devoted to You' in their 1978 musical film.

James Gandolfini who passed away back in 2013, was also a very good friend of John's. He even said James would call to check on him and his family after he lost his son, and when James passed away, he did the same for him as well.
I’m glad to see John Travolta back on stage, especially the Academy Awards. The man has been through a lot and it’s very devastating to see how emotional he was. He lost his son, his wife, his co-stars, and the people he cared about. My condolences to you John, you’ve always been a phenomenal actor and a strong man. You got this!!

If this doesn’t bring tears to your eyes for the pain in John’s heart, you are not human. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
The audible gasp of the audience was heartwrentching when he said that line. John has incredible courage to display those emotions and say those words. Probably the hardest thing he ever had to do aside from losing his son and his wife. My heart goes out to him.
It's nice to see how much love he had for Olivia.
As a child, saw Grease at the Theatre in 1978, will never forget how wonderful that was…🙏
One of the great traits about John is that he is a sensitive, loving person. And he sure has had some losses in his life. I love that he can show his emotions. That is a real man.
I don’t blame him for getting a little emotional he was probably thinking of his parents, Diana, Jett, Kelly, Olivia,and Kirstie and all the other wonderful friends he has lost. Couldn’t even imagine his pain. What a beautiful tribute to all we have lost this past year. 🤍

His kind words were so powerful and you know damn well it was hard for him to get them out. Bravo sir.
I know he loved his beautiful wife Kelly Preston so much --- but NOBODY can convince me he didn't love the gorgeous Olivia just as much !! 😥😥
Beautiful, John Travolta. When I was in high school a very sweet guy asked me for a date after a basketball game. I was surprised and said "yes." Finally I asked him why he asked me out and he said "You have a smile like Olivia Newton-John." i consider that the ultimate compliment. Thanks, Greg. NPHS Class of 1971.
Wow, that was heartfelt and moving. RIP Olivia, you are so missed...

@@johntravolta-pm3xy Oh my God, is that really you Sir? Watching you in Grease was perfection. I know that you changed lives for people of all ages all over the World after that movie. I used to watch you in "Welcome Back, Kotter" too, when I was only 7-9 years old having come home from school, they were great childhood memories of mine, those were the years. Later, when I saw you in "Saturday Night Live", I said this guy is unreal, he is badass. I miss those years and thank you so much Sir for the best memories. Of course, they named a late-night show after your movie. You dancing in "Pulp Fiction" was epic too. I love art and great artists like you, there are not enough of them in today's world, too much science. Please take care of yourself and reflect on what your loved ones would have wanted, please don't die or anything like that. Great celebrities should live a long time. My mother, not having lived a great life, died when I was 26 years old, at the age of 53 and she gives me strength to go on. Oh my God, I'm gonna follow you on Twitter. I currently follow Linda Carter "Wonderwoman", I need to follow more great artists. Thank you so much for you, and your reply.
He loved Olivia so much as she did him. They would have been the perfect couple.
What a touching speach that John said about Olivia Newton John.
When I was a kid I was madly in love with this woman when I heard about her passing I choked and my heart skipped a beat and I think it was that part of my youth that I cherish was no more...
The absolute perfect response from Travolta about her passing: “Forever your Danny.”
John Travolta is a beautiful man. I won’t hear a word against him. It takes a pure soul to recognise one as he did.
Singing your songs, dearest Olivia, is my cure, during long nights when I can’t sleep I sing, and it cures me, giving me peace, both of you, John as well …both so important to my life, knowing them, their movies, songs..whished always to know them in real..and still dreaming..unfortunately we had to so goodbye to a beautiful woman and soul..we miss you Olivia..take care John Travolta..💖✨🌹
John is going through the same thing my dad's been going through. He's lost both his parents, two of his sisters, a brother, his wife/my mother, two cousins and his favorite dog all in the last five years. They say the strongest always end up being the last to give up ... That must be a bittersweet feeling.
You know you’re getting old when those stars you loved growing up start to fade and pass away!
You can 💯% hear awww 😢 from the audience after when he said “We will remain hopelessly devoted to.” He was referring to his late soulmate/ friend Olivia Newton-John whom he started with in a musical Grease (1978). Not to mention he also lost his other friend Kirstie Alley in Look Who’s Talking. He lost his wife Kelly Preston in 2020 (all from cancer.) He even lost his son Jett back in 2009 from a seizure while they were on vacation. I also heard he lost his parents too. It’s been tough for John 😢. He even lost his friend Robin Williams from suicide and Bernie Mac from pneumonia, whom he co-started in Old Dogs (2009) All he has left are his daughter and other son

I cant imagine losing my spouse & child. Poor john😢🙏

did the film with Johnny and Livvy- a summer never to be duplicated- and I know this broke all our hearts, especially John
Truly a deeply profound sentiment by John Travolta, a living icon paying tribute to those he and we have lost. You could literally feel the devotion and sensitivity I him. Thank you John, for acknowledging those who have passed on, and for continuing to bring joy to all of us with your presence in life. So happy to see you out and about. You look wonderful! Never stop creating and being inspired. Through your experiences, creation grows and is shared and appreciated.
HAPPY 70TH BIRTHDAY JOHN TRAVOLTA !!!!!

It's weird how much emotion he had for Olivia but yet not so much for his wife who passed away with Cancer

This was in 1978 . My father died around the time this movie came out. I was 16.

To cheer me up we all watched everything concerning the new Travolta movie called Grease in my aunts tiny living room, filled with love and coffee and coockies. So this one is bittersweet for me.
Its an absolute crime they didn't put tony sirico or Paul Sorvino there.
