You go, girl! Just because Olivia Newton-John has been battling cancer for the third time doesn’t mean she is going to spend all of her spare time at home. In fact, the 70-year-old Grease star recently paid a visit to the Newbridge Silverware Museum of Style Icons in County Kildare, Ireland, to support the launch of her new auction, The Property of Olivia Newton-John.

The auction — which started on Monday, July 22 — will be quite memorable because Olivia will be selling her iconic leather outfit that she wore at the end of Grease for the “You’re the One That I Want” finale. Not only that, but the famed singer has also chosen to display some of her best looks she has worn during the course of her successful career at the exhibit.

“Newbridge Silverware and the Museum of Style Icons, in partnership with Julien’s Auctions, is honored to present this pre-auction exhibition celebrating one of pop music’s greatest talents and treasured icons, Olivia Newton-John,” Newbridge said in a statement, according to Irish Central. “Newbridge will be the first stop on this exhibition tour, giving Irish fans the first glimpse of some of Olivia’s most iconic film costumes and memorabilia.”

Earlier this year, Olivia opened up about her most recent cancer battle and said she has been using medicinal cannabis to help her deal with the pain. “I was on quite high doses of morphine when I came out of hospital last year and I have been able to wean myself off morphine with cannabis,” she told the Daily Mail.

Medicinal cannabis has been helping Olivia deal with her pain in a healthy way too. “Opiates kill people,” she said. “Cannabis doesn’t; it does amazing things. It helps me with the pain, the anxiety, the sleeplessness and I believe it has properties for healing, too.”

Battling cancer for the third time has also made her want to find a cure more than ever. “I want to be part of finding the end of cancer. Is it truly within our grasp?” she asked. “You have to believe that.”

Olivia has been doing her best to keep a positive attitude too, but sometimes she can’t help but think about the chances of her dying. “When you have a cancer diagnosis it changes things,” she told The Herald Sun in May. “We all know we’re going to die one day. We don’t like to think about it, but one day we all will.”

Olivia added, “When you have a cancer diagnosis it just makes it more obvious that it could happen and it makes you much more aware of the present and that every day is a gift and that’s how I live.”

Olivia’s husband, John Easterling, has been helping her fight the disease too. “I have a wonderful husband who supports me,” she previously admitted to People. “I’m feeling good, just getting stronger.”
