Bob Hope
Bob Hope rose to the top of every medium he touched: headliner in Vaudeville, Broadway star, radio icon, movie idol and superstar on television. His persona reached audiences of every age in every decade of the 20 th century.
A popular star in Vaudeville, it was Broadway’s “Roberta” where Bob eventually caught the eyes of critics. In 1938, NBC signed him for a radio show that became a fixture in American homes. It wasn’t long before Paramount called on Bob. He went on to make 50+ feature films, including the hugely popular “Road Pictures” with Bing Crosby and Dorothy Lamour. In 1950, his TV career officially launched with “Star Spangled Revue.”
An accomplished man, Bob’s greatest legacy was his commitment to American service personnel. For nearly six decades, at war or at peace, “G.I. Bob” crossed the globe with 57 USO tours for troops in WW II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Persian Gulf War. In the history of show business, no one traveled so far, so often, to entertain so many.

Cute, beautiful, amazing, and should I dare say sexy at times? The thing about Olivia was that despite those adjectives, and so many more, she had that girl next persona, that you couldn’t help but fall in love with her.

@@drewgeraci8434 To be honest, the first girl I had a crush on was a blonde Canadian girl in second grade in Vienna, Austria, who was my classmate. Soon after I fell for Olivia’s voice and then her beauty. The third woman I fell for, who I am still in love with is Agnetha Faltskog, the blonde from ABBA. Just like millions of other boys and men.
Olivia was the absolute classiest! I can't imagine her ever being rude or obnoxious. So missed. Always great to watch or listen to.

My friend was on a TV special with her,ABBA and Andy Gibb that was taped on May 5th 1978 when he was 11 years old and a part of an acting troupe for kids.He walked up to her between takes and tried to introduce himself...she just stared at him,ignored him and walked away.Heard also she did drugs occasionally so maybe she was high? She had a lot of street cred in Hollywood and the media protected her from any bad press

And Alderan. I mean, I thought Game of Thrones was bad, but that's really just small time. (And yet somehow, no one managed to kill Jar-Jar.) Sorry to hijack your post. I genuinely miss all those great entertainers too. Olivia was my teen crush.

Olivia was always a feast for the ears AND eyes. And because she'd had MANY years of experience as an actress, she was quite good, and had GREAT comic timing - as can be seen here. She was an absolute treasure, and she is missed.
This Luke is more accurate that what most of Dizney did
I love Star Wars! I love Olivia Newton_John! RIP angel.
Mark was always a great sport about poking fun at himself and Star Wars. He's lampooned Star Wars on The Muppet Show, The Simpsons and this and probably more I don't know about.

Of course there's no more; it's a frigging comedy skit. And it isn't "Star Wars" at all; it's "Scar Wars."
They were lucky to act in a comedy skit with such an extraordinary Woman such as Olivia Newton- John.
When Hollywood was Great, All the Wonderful Talent of those times; at least we can hold their memories on film (ok a computer chip) and in our hearts.
“A credit card force.” LMFAO! Loved that Olivia couldn’t help but crack-up. With her hair tied back, Olivia probably had the most kissable face in The Universe.
Bob was one of the greatest performers of all time and did countless good with his war time USO shows !
R.I.P Olivia Newton John, always a good sport. Their own laughter back in the day as they tried to keep it together for the script was what made live tv so entertaining. Not the brain dead reality crap we get now. 👍🇦🇺
She was a goddess!!!!
Thing is, I probably saw this back then, but i have no memory of it. Genuinely funny, but then, you know, Bob Hope.
This is great so much pure fun,Olivia is so fine and gorgeous although the princess outfit is not worn as Leia had worn it but that would have been a definate plus.The improvisations of Bob hope made everyone not be able to keep a straight face,how have i not seen this over the years ?!
