John Travolta calls teen sensation Miley Cyrus the new Olivia Newton-John after working with her in the new movie Bolt.

The two also teamed up to record the theme for the new animated movie, and Travolta admits he hasn’t seen a star sparkle like Cyrus, 15, since he fell for Newton-John during their late 1970s movie musical Grease.

He said:

“The whole country is in love with her (Cyrus), as am I. She’s got the equivalent of what Olivia Newton-John was to Grease.”

You know, I can’t say this with any certainty, but I’d guess that Olivia wouldn’t find this as a compliment.
