Were John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John friends?
Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta met on the set of the 1978 musical “Grease.” Years later, in 1983, the actors reunited to shoot “Two of a Kind.” For more than four decades, Newton-John and Travolta have been close friends.
They were just friends but never dated.
“We were both with other people when we were filming, and I believe, respectfully, it simply didn’t happen,” Olivia Newton-John said in 2018 on the Mamma Mia No Filter podcast. “I believe it was fantastic because it maintained the tension and chemistry there.”
