Olivia Newton-John was a Swiftie! Late star's rep said she would have loved Taylor Swift playing Grease role in resurfaced snaps: 'She had the greatest respect for Taylor'

Olivia Newton-John was a bona fide Swiftie, according to her rep.

Michael Caprio, who represented the late star for over 25 years, said she would have been ‘tickled’ to see Taylor Swift’s resurfaced Grease photos from 2000, per his interview with TMZ on Friday.

Never-before-seen childhood snaps of Taylor playing Grease’s Sandy – the role made famous by Olivia in the 1978 film – were unveiled this week.

In them, the pop star, 34, wore a blonde wig and black top to sing You’re The One That I Want in the final scene of her school production of the hit musical.

Caprio claimed Olivia – who passed away in 2022 after a long battle with breast cancer – would have been a huge fan of Taylor’s reveal, as she ‘had the greatest respect for Taylor as an artist and she was a fan of her talent.’

He added that the Physical hitmaker led a bunch of her friends to attend a Taylor concert in Miami back in 2010.

Olivia couldn’t stop raving about the show, according to Caprio, who recalls Olivia telling him she thought ‘Taylor was such a sweet, talented and smart girl.’

In the childhood snaps, Taylor also wore a white dress for a rendition of Summer Nights alongside actor Tobin Mitnick who played Danny Zuko.

Mitnick had shared the photos on social media and commented on them.

He wrote: ‘Thank you mom for digging these pics of @taylorswift and I harmonizing like buttah on summer nights twenty five years ago out of storage.

‘Also trav the note is an f-sharp if you’re interested. June 2000.’

The star is nominated for six Grammy Awards at this Sunday’s ceremony.

Offstage she is embroiled in a sizzling romance with NFL star Travis Kelce, 34.

America’s most famous couple hugged and kissed on the field at the M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday in the aftermath of a magnificent victory for the Chiefs over Baltimore Ravens – who were strong favorites to win the game before it began.

Travis found his girlfriend as he waited for the AFC Championship trophy presentation in emotional scenes and Taylor looked almost tearful as the couple had a moment to celebrate together with the eyes of the world on them.

Taylor now turns her attention to four nights of her blockbuster Eras Tour in Japan’s capital from February 7-10 before now having to race back to the Allegiant Stadium on the west coast for the Super Bowl. But she is expected to make the journey and be there for Kelce.

The pop star and Travis took center stage for the post-game celebrations but during the showdown itself, the singer appeared frustrated at appearing on the CBS coverage around the midway stage.

She could be seen clearly saying ‘go away, please’ with the camera lingering on her in a VIP suite while advertising next weekend’s Grammys.

The attention didn’t appear to be a problem for Travis though after dominating the game in Baltimore and, overall, enjoying a highly impressive season with the Chiefs.

Kansas City will play the San Francisco 49ers at the Super Bowl next month.
