Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta dress up as their iconic ‘Grease’ characters 40 years later

We got chills from seeing Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta dress up as their characters from “Grease” for the first time in 40 years.

The actors, who played lovebirds, Sandy and Danny, in the iconic 1978 musical romantic comedy, reunited for Meet n’ Grease sing-along event on Friday at the Coral Sky Amphitheater in West Palm Beach, Florida.

During the fan event, 71-year-old Newton-John and 65-year-old Travolta donned a number of different looks inspired by the popular costumes they wore on set.

Travolta stayed true to his T-Birds roots in an all-black ensemble with a leather jacket.

Later on during a Q&A with fans, Newton-John changed into a leather jacket and tight black leggings reminiscent of her finale look from the movie.
