60 Minutes

A lovely interview that crams a lot into just 12 minutes. I think Olivia and the interviewer, Karl Stefanovic, have a little flirtation going on here! Karl tells Olivia he's completely fan girlying, Olivia laughs telling him no you are not! It's all very innocent of course, not least as Olivia's husband John joins them later for dinner.

Olivia shows Karl around her Cancer Wellness Centre and meets some of the patients there. Olivia doesn't offer the patients false reassurances but that they'll get the best treatment whilst listening to their worries and concerns. You can see the affect it has on Olivia afterwards as she talks to Karl and slightly tears up.

This is a great advertisement for Olivia's Gaia Retreat and Spa as Olivia takes Karl around the gorgeous grounds. They also have a quick game of tennis during which Olivia sings tell me more tell me more how much tennis do you play?

Karl finishes the day having dinner with Olivia and John. He points out that the Australian public are very protective of Olivia and who she goes out with jokingly asking John who the hell are you?

The interview ends with Olivia expressing her wish to find a cure for cancer within her lifetime. You have to believe in the magic and egged on by Karl starts singing her hit Magic.

Ed - there's an unofficial part 2 to this interview a year later.
