(5,914 posts)4. ONJ was my guiltiest pleasure in high school.
During the day, I was all about blasting Blue Oyster Cult and Black Sabbath in the school parking lot as loud as possible. But at night, when no one was around... I had Ms. Newton-John on the turntable. And in my mind.
Man, I had a crush on that woman. Everyone did.
Two facts about the lovely Livvy you may not have known:
1) Her father, an authority on the German language, served as an MI5 agent on the Enigma project at Bletchley Park during WW II. He identified and brought Rudolf Hess into custody for war crimes.
2) Her grandfather on her mom's side was Max Born, Nobel prize winning physicist and Albert Einstein's best friend.
