RIP, Dame Olivia Newton-John (26th September 1948 – 8th August 2022)
We are distraught.
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
We here are donned, and covered, in black.

DeleteMourning time, indeed. Jx
Just so sad. She's my Sunday Diva for the last week in August. I never saw an end to her smile. The sun shines a bit less brightly without her. Kizzes.
ReplyDeleteShe just oozed charm! Although it did take Grease and Physical before she could shake off the "Doris_Day-esque" sweet, virginal image. Jx
DeleteLovely! When I heard the news of her passing yesterday, I thought, "Jon will do a nice tribute for her." Few people look like such a genuinely nice person to be around as Olivia Newton-John did! I am truly sad to hear of such a sweet person passing.
ReplyDeleteIt was very sad news indeed. Jx
DeleteShe was so pretty - I wanted to be ONJ - of course I did, what teenage girl didn't?!

Like so many budding queens, I wanted to be Rizzo. Jx
