Olivia Newton-John Is Xanadu-ing a New Guy

Two years after her deadbeat dad lover, Patrick McDermott, went "missing" on the high seas (well, from a fishing boat off San Pedro, California), Olivia Newton-John was "found" on the red carpet with a new man on her arm -- natural health guru "Amazon" John Easterling. The happy couple made their debut at the Helen Hayes Theatre for the opening night of "Xanadu" on Broadway, the critically acclaimed stage adaptation of her stinker 1980 film of the same name that's already breaking box office records.

The cast celebrated opening night with a gala afterparty at Providence on West 57th Street:

Kerry Butler and Cheyenne Jackson; Olivia Newton-John.


Cheyenne and Olivia bond; An injured James Carpinello, whom Cheyenne is temporarily replacing. (Let's see if that switcharoo still goes into effect now that tickets sales are on fire.)

I always thought ONT was gay. Wasn't she married to Matt Latanzi, a handsome guy who is gay?

Meanwhile, Cheyenne Jackson is one HOT man! It was his birthday yesterday. I think he's "one of the boys". :-)

What a strangely awkward photo op for James and Cheyenne to have to do. Maybe it would help if James were forced to kiss Cheyenne's royal belly. On ONT & gayness...I doubt seriously that Matt Lattanzi is OPENLY gay. But those rumors have been around since ONJ was just a slip of a muse. I've always wondered. But ONJ keeps a good poker face on the subject. She keeps it in her medicine cabinet alongside her previous faces...Random ONJ Worship Comment Of The Day: Her best nobody-knows-it song is the uptempo version of "I Need Love."
