  1. In the case of Olivia I think the I Score should be based more on the Kiddushin.

  2. I like the "double profile" but of all the pictures of Olivia Newton-John, did you have to show the one from the end of Grease with a cigarette dangling from her mouth (not lit, and she doesn't even smoke in real life)? There were so many better pictures of her through the years, like maybe one from the video from her song "Physical" or something.....

  3. I'm glad you changed the picture. By the way, the previous poster was right about her not smoking....in fact, except for a brief stint as a teenager, she has never smoked and is actually a bit of an anti-smoking activist:

  4. If her Wikipedia entry is to be believed, she may be a tiny bit more "Jewish" than you think. Turns our Max Born's wife (i.e. Olivia's maternal grandma) actually had a Jewish father as well (but she wasn't raised Jewish).

    And while this does not make her any more Jewish halachically, her father was the MI-5 officer who captured Nazi bigwig Rudolf Hess. Interesting.

  5. She's Sandra Dee, she's not Jewish. Love Grease, but NOT a Jew in the slightest.

  6. I wonder if people who call her by the nickname "Olivia Neutron Bomb" are aware of her physics pedigree? :)
