OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN LOOKING GOOD OVER 40
http://www.olivianewton-john.com/
http://www.onlyolivia.com/
Born in Cambridge, England in 1948, the youngest child of Professor Brin Newton-John and Irene, daughter of Nobel Prize winning physicist, Max Born, Olivia moved to Melbourne, Australia with her family when she was five. By the age of fifteen, she had formed an all-girl group called Sol Four. Later that year she won a talent contest on the popular tv show, “Sing, Sing, Sing,” hosted by Johnny O’Keefe, which earned her a trip to London. By 1963, Olivia was appearing on local daytime TV shows and weekly pop music programs in Australia. It was on the “Go Show,” where she met her lifelong friends, Pat Carroll and John Farrar. The following year she headed to London, where she was joined by her friend Pat (who later married John Farrar). They toured Europe as a double act, playing nightclubs and American service bases until Pat’s visa ran out and forced her to return to Australia. Olivia cut her first single for Decca Records in 1966, a version of Jackie DeShannon’s "Till You Say You’ll Be Mine." In 1971, Bruce Welch of The Shadows co-produced her cover of Bob Dylan’s "If Not For You," with her Australian friend, producer/songwriter, John Farrar, who she continues to collaborate with today.
Her 1973 U.S. album debut, "Let Me Be There," on MCA Records produced her first top ten single of the same name, with Olivia being honored by the Academy Of Country Music as Most Promising Female Vocalist and a Grammy Award as Best Country Vocalist. This proved to be only the beginning of a very exciting career. Her countless successes include three more Grammys, numerous Country Music Awards, American Music Awards and Peoples Choice Awards, five #1 hits including “Physical,” which topped the charts for ten consecutive weeks, and 15 top 10 singles. In 1978, her co-starring role with John Travolta in “Grease” catapulted Olivia into super-stardom. This film led to the production of the most successful movie musical soundtrack in history, featuring the duets "You’re The One That I Want" and "Summer Nights," with Travolta, as well as her mega-hit, "Hopelessly Devoted To You." The film was re-released worldwide in 1998 in celebration of it’s 20th anniversary to even more acclaim, a true testament to it’s timeless quality. Her other film credits include "Xanadu," "Two Of A Kind," "It’s My Party,” and recently the independent feature, “Sordid Lives.” She followed that success, by co-starring with her daughter, Chloe, in the Showtime movie, “The Wilde Girls.” Clearly following in her mother’s footsteps, Chloe has performed on stage with Olivia during her last two tours.
Olivia’s public appeal has proved to be equally timeless. Her career has spanned more than three decades and she is still a vibrant, creative individual that is adored by fans across the world. Throughout her career, the much-loved star, who danced with Gene Kelly in “Xanadu,” hosted the popular internationally syndicated “Wild Life” television show, was bestowed an O.B.E. (Order Of The British Empire) by Queen Elizabeth in 1979, has held many humanitarian causes close to her heart, particularly since the birth of her daughter Chloe in 1986. She served as Goodwill Ambassador to the United Nations Environment Programme and in 1991, the Colette Chuda Environmental Fund/CHEC (Children’s Health Environ-mental Coalition) was founded after the tragic death of Chloe’s best friend from a rare childhood cancer, with Olivia serving as National Spokesperson for ten years. Her steadfast devotion and shared commitment to CHEC’s mission and goals enabled the organization to receive worldwide attention and support. (For more information visit http://www.checnet.org/.)
Her charmed life has not been without it’s share of upset. In the 90’s, Olivia successfully overcame her own battle with breast cancer, which inspired her self-penned and produced album, “GAIA,” her most personal album reflecting upon her experiences with cancer. She used these experiences to gain greater self-awareness and became a positive inspiration to millions of people battling cancer. As a breast cancer survivor, Olivia has become increasingly well known and respected for talking openly about her battle with breast cancer and for promoting public awareness of the importance of early detection. Her personal victory against cancer led her to announce her partnership with the Austin & Repatriation Medical Centre and the creation of the “Olivia Newton-John Cancer Centre” (ONJCC) on the Austin Campus in her hometown, Melbourne, Australia. The ONJCC will provide a comprehensive range of services and facilities for cancer treatment, education, training and research. (For more information visit http://www.armc.org.au/.) Olivia continues to give back to the community generously and has been acknowledged many times by charitable and environmental organizations for her ongoing efforts, among them: the American Red Cross, the Environmental Media Association, the Women’s Guild of Cedar’s Sinai Medical Center, the Rainforest Alliance and Concept Cure.
In 1999, with the release of her album, "Back With A Heart," Olivia garnered an Emmy Award for her songwriting and returned to work as a performer touring extensively in the United States for the first time in seventeen years. In the new millennium, her international recognition has continued to grow. She was invited by the Vatican on behalf of Pope John Paul II to perform at the Jubilee Celebration for the Sick and Healthcare Workers. Olivia was thrilled to sing the duet, “Dare to Dream” with fellow Australian John Farnham at the Opening Ceremony of the Sydney 2000 Olympics to an estimated global viewing audience of four billion people. Adding to this Olympic experience is what Olivia feels is one of her most memorable moments - the honor of carrying the Olympic Torch and then passing it to tennis legend, Pat Rafter, on the steps of the Sydney Opera House, during the Olympic Torch Relay.
In 2000/2001, Olivia released her only live album, "One Woman’s Live Journey," followed by “Magic - The Very Best of Olivia Newton-John,” which celebrated thirty years of recording. And if that wasn’t enough, she also released her first holiday album, “The Christmas Collection.” In 2002, Olivia was inducted into the prestigious Australian Music Hall Of Fame at the 16th Annual Aria Awards. Her passion for Australia was proven once again when Olivia recently reunited with friend and business partner Pat Farrar to launch their distinctly Australian wines under the iconic homegrown brand Koala Blue, to proudly bring the “taste of Australia” to the rest of the world. Her current cd, simply titled, “2,” was recorded in 2002 in Australia and features a host of talented Ozzies along with a couple of her american friends (honorary Ozzies!) and is quickly garnering international acclaim. With her current international tour, ongoing projects and philanthropic endeavors, Olivia’s worldwide popularity is as strong as ever!

Bounjour! Hello! Sali or Gruess Dich!...
...would be the languages I grew up with, and yes, I am fluent in.
On September 27th, 19..--Oh, nevermind!!-- I was born in Zurich, Switzerland.
I made sure to keep things spicy and firey by being born into a Greek and Italian family that was trying their best to adapt to the Swiss ways of Life. So before moving to Rome in later years Switzerland is where I spent the first part of my Life. I grew up with a French Nanny, my Greek mom, and Italian dad, all while learning everything about William Tell, Strudel, Sauerkraut and Ripple, which later developed into a taste for fine watches and good chocolate.
My major? Business and Economics. An Artist at heart, I respect and enjoy all creation; all that beautifies our world and our hearts. All that communicates; all that encourages change for the better; all that makes us feel alive and dream just a little longer until we break out into a smile. Passion is my surname.
One of the things I still enjoy -- besides bringing a Film or TV Character to Life that can move you -- Is to cook and to paint. Mostly I paint women and faces. I also used to freelance in Fashion design for women's clothing, which I started in my late teens while modeling for 10 years across the world for every top magazine you can name and designer you can think of.
I love representing and painting Women, because Women are smart and beautiful. Like a fascinating, resilient, never dying flower.Women never cease to amaze me as we have endless amounts of courage and potential, intelligence and strength not only for ourselves but also for all the men around us who seek our unpretentious strength through them. Women are men's greatest validation.I admire my mother, my grandmother and my beautiful girlfriends because of it.
And so every time I represent a woman in a film or role, I get to explore and communicate her world, culture and heart through my passion, my eyes, and I hope my breath between the words spoken. Like a painting or music that doesn't require translation.Though I speak 6 languages and some, I learned that communication lies not within words, but intention and purpose.I feel blessed to do what I love to do and admire all artists for having the courage to do what they do. You change the world!
Some future day I will love to direct as well, to bring an imagination to Life and see a miracle of an artist blossom in front of me for the mere reason of having asked the right question and offered good guidance. That will be fun and very satisfying.
On my Journey to now I have had the pleasure to work with wonderful people, some amazingly generous, some amazingly difficult and I learned from all.
Understanding and learn to express my self through the American sense of humor, having people find my accent "charming," appreciating a rootbeer float and marshmallows on yams for Thanksgiving or over hot chocolate, or watching the precision work that goes into putting it onto a stick and holding it over an open fire, and the wonders and variations of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, curly fries and drive through banking was my ticket to loving this country and all its freedoms.Though I will remain faithful to our Italian cuisine, Mozzarella di Bufala, Lasagna and Rome's cobblestone streets.
I still love to study because,Knowledge is power. Of course you must understand first what it is you want to know.As Self determination combined with applicable study results in usable talent!Of course there are always obstacles and the devils who want to stop us from succeeding,But Obstacles can also stimulate us to do better. My philosophy:Never pray for it to be easier; pray to be stronger! make your self stronger, study, work hard and succeed!You have to search and discover what you want and love to do and then simply do it. Persevere. Don't give up. And always do more than what you thought is the best you could do. Live in the future with which you create your present. Create and exchange, flourish and prosper! These are the things I learned, use everyday and want to share with you.
Arrivederci !

Emily Proctor Miami CSI
http://www.emilyprocter.com/
For the past three seasons, Emily Procter has helped make CSI:Miami a top ten staple for CBS. She combines her innate talent, beauty, and Southern charm into her role as Detective Calleigh Duquesne.
Though investigating crime scenes may not be as cutthroat an environment as the White House, audiences also know Procter as attorney Ainsley Hayes who she portrayed on the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning The West Wing for two seasons.
Born and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina, Procter was no stranger to television before opting to make the move to Los Angeles. While still completing her degree in Journalism and Dance at East Carolina University, she worked as a weather anchor at WNCT in Greenville.
It wasn’t until she graduated and moved to L.A. that she began to garner some big screen credits including Leaving Las Vegas with Nicolas Cage and Jerry Maguire with Tom Cruise. In 1998, Procter landed her first starring role in the critically acclaimed HBO telefilm Breast Men opposite Chris Cooper and David Schwimmer, with whom she later worked with on Friends. She has since co-starred in the New Line drama Body Shots.
When not filming, Procter enjoys interior decorating, performing with her new band, playing poker, and working with various charities for the homeless.
