Cancer-stricken Olivia Newton-John appeared in jovial spirits as she took the centre stage and revealed that she hasn't sung in a year.

John Travolta was lately, in news for spotting a mistake in Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. The actor revealed that his enthusiasm for aeroplanes helped him spot a historical inaccuracy in an important scene of the film.  Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood had been set in the year 1969 with actors Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio as fading TV star Rick Dalton and his stunt double Cliff Booth, respectively. The movie is considered "fairy tale tribute to the final moments of Hollywood's golden age".
