Say something nice or say nothing

She was beautiful - I remember when she lived in Melbourne

I can't help it if she's fabricated.
Really a plain Jane brunette with the fake blonde fake it to make it.
I've heard Olivia was a nasty to the nobodies who weren't in her personal space to praise her celebrity existence.
She being like Princess Diana - all a show for the camera's being nice and soft, but a potty mouthed Houso off camera.
Even Amy Winehouse could put on a stage show as if nothing was wrong, only to be crawling across the floor debilitated only to die the next week.

Seems these foreign born who still call Australia home only do so as a Media marketing gig and mostly when they're out of work in the USA or overseas or when they're down and out for some reason. Yep, when things are low - they come back here to the peasantry for some sympathy.

Like Marla said - better the Aust Health Care System than the expensive USA one.
Even Minogue didn't want to pay for the British one and then took an entire floor of a Hospital for herself (why? Ego?) that compromised many other people and patients.

She's a British born 'American' girl who called Australia a home for the fully sick bro.

I think most of Australia is with you there ... never having met her but loving her infectious smile and forever youthful looks. And oh man!!! What a voice! Seriously...Australia had 2 unbelievably awesome singers in Judith Durham and Olivia Newton John. Both are gone now. Within a week of each other. Terribly sad. These 2 women helped raise Australia's profile and image globally with their music, voice...and beautiful soul. Whenever I play a song on YouTube by either woman I hear soothing music sung by an angel with pitch perfect precision.

(There is 1 other singer who fits this description IMO - Barbra Streisand - however she's not Australian.)

Edit : And thank God Barbra Streisand is STILL alive too. Irrespective of her age ... her voice remains pitch perfect and flawless. I can't think of any other amazing singer like her and who's still with us.

Anyway we've lost 2 amazing Australian women 🥺😔

Always liked this tribute with Peter Allen about 10 years after his death.
