The anonymous billionaire who won the auction for Olivia Newton-John's iconic leather jacket from"Grease" had a plan to give back after he placed the winning bid.
The bidder, who was the self-professed"No. 1 fan" of the singer, donated the $243,000 that he originally spent on the jacket to the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Center in Melbourne, Australia, according to Julien's Auctions. "Oh, hello," she said cheerfully upon opening her eyes. Newton-John shook his hand and sheepishly admitted that, while she recognized his face, she could not recall his name or how they met.
Newton-John's eyes go wide in shock as she is immediately moved to tears."Are you serious?" she exclaims before giving him a long hug.
