Olivia Newton-John
Olivia Newton-John, the Grease actress, claims to have seen a UFO when she was a teenager
The 60-year-old performer said that she was “intrigued” by unidentified flying objects and believed that most people in Britain shared her obsession.
Newton-John’s co-star in the 1978 teenage movie was John Travolta, who is now a member of the Church of Scientology which holds that aliens populated the Earth millions of years ago.
But the actress’s brush with extraterrestrial life was more mundane. She has described how she saw a silver object flying across the sky at “amazing speeds” when she was 15.
“I have seen one when I was very young. It was unidentified and it was flying,” she told The Sun.
“In England most people now think UFOs are possible. Twenty years ago, how many people would have thought that?”
Newton-John, who grew up in Cambridge, is best known for playing Sandy in the film musical Grease but also released a string of No 1 albums in the US in the 1970s.
She married her second husband John Easterling in 2008, four years after her boyfriend Patrick McDermott vanished on a fishing trip in California.
Earlier this year it was reported that Mr McDermott is alive and living in a boat off the coast of Mexico.
