John Travolta, Mia Farrow, Dionne Warwick, and More Remember Olivia Newton-John

Actors, singers, directors and more, including John Travolta and Dionne Warwick, reacted to the death of Olivia Newton-John.

The music and film industry alike is taking to social media to honor the late singer and Grease actor Olivia Newton-John. The news of the 73-year-old’s death was first shared by husband John Easterling, who wrote that his wife “passed away peacefully” surrounded by friends and family after a 30-year journey with breast cancer. Almost immediately, her friend and famous co-star John Travolta responded with a short but emotional post. “My dearest Olivia, you made all of our lives so much better. Your impact was incredible,” he wrote alongside a photo of a young Newton-John. “I love you so much. We will see you down the road and we will all be together again. Yours from the first moment I saw you and forever! Your Danny, your John!” Dionne Warwick also mourned the loss of her longtime friend. “Another angelic voice has been added to the Heavenly Choir. Not only was Olivia a dear friend, but one of the nicest people I had the pleasure of recording and performing with. I will most definitely miss her,” she wrote on Twitter. See more tributes below.

"Grease" is my #1 movie of all time and made me a lifelong Olivia Newton John fan. Me and my sister watched Xanadu more times than I could count. Sending so much love and prayers to a real gift of a woman and talent. #RIPOliviaNewtonJohn ???????? https://t.co/1M8lcVQuON

We have lost a great, iconic artist in Olivia Newton John, gone too soon from us at age 73. I trust she is now in the great Xanadu beyond. Know that we are forever hopelessly devoted to you, Olivia. Rest in song and mirth.

Really sad to hear about the passing of Olivia Newton-John. My first real crush as a kid. I loved Grease & her music & I coincidentally also bought & lived in for a while the wonderful home she built in Malibu. May she Rest In Peace. ❤️ https://t.co/gP10SJWqFZ

I am SO saddened at the news of the passing of Olivia Newton John. I remember being so star struck when I met her at my first Hollywood gathering for Paramount. She was the sweetest and brightest light and I loved getting to know her on "It's My Party." RIP dear, sweet Olivia. pic.twitter.com/4FFgolVQNk

One of the most genuinely beautiful souls has left us. Olivia Newton-John was an amazing artist in every way. She was a dear friend to me and to all. Olivia is the definition of the phrase “Down to earth”. I love you Liv pic.twitter.com/FKyUd7WfRs

Olivia Newton John was one in a million.
She gave the world her music and movies – but for Victorians she was so much more.
Her generosity through the ONJ Cancer Wellness and Research Centre has saved lives, and her advocacy has given Victorians hope as they battle cancer. pic.twitter.com/ObOL0yE0or

Shocked and sadden by the news of the death of Dame Olivia Newton John. Taken far too early from us after battling breast cancer for over 30 yrs. A beautiful and kind soul. May she shine as bright in Heaven as she did on Earth. RIP Olivia pic.twitter.com/uqFgHFt4QC

Olivia Newton John so completely dominated the charts and Top Of The Pops when I was a kid, it felt like she WAS pop music. And yes, Xanadu is still a stone cold classic song. RIP x pic.twitter.com/VFfQenPcOM
