Ooh, ooh, ooh, honey! Julien’s Auctions and Turner Classic Movies are closing out their A Week of Hollywood Legends: Property From the Estate of Olivia Newton-John with a celebration of the late actress and singer.

The event, which will take place from Dec. 10 to Dec. 13 at the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills and online at Julien’s Auctions’ website, will feature an auction of more than 400 pieces of the legendary Grammy winner’s iconic wardrobe, instruments, fine art, jewelry, memorabilia, personal mementos and more.

A standout piece from the auction is the beloved leather jacket that Newton-John wore as Sandy Olsson in the final scene of the 1978 classic film, Grease. Other treasures up for bidding include her “Summer Nights,” “Physical” and “Have You Never Been Mellow” record awards; 1974 American Music Award for favorite country female vocalist; the blouse she wore in the music video for her “Jolene” duet with Dolly Parton; handwritten lyrics for “A Mother’s Christmas Wish,” “Christmas on My Radio” and “My Blue Piano;” a Steinway turquoise baby grand piano and more.

A portion of the auction proceeds will benefit the Olivia Newton-John Foundation Fund, that was founded by Newton-John and her husband, John Easterling. The independent charity sponsors global research into plant medicine treatments for cancer. Newton-John died in August 2022 at the age of 73 after a decades-long battle with breast cancer.

The auction event comes just weeks after an exhibition of Newton-John’s collection opens at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville on Nov. 22.
