Reshooting Xanadu scenes
She got a POOR DEAL: The producers of the movie Xanadu
asked Olivia Newton-John to come back and do some additional shooting after the picture was supposed to be finished. Olivia's manager demanded $300,000 sic for the additional two weeks work. The producers turned the offer down saying they'd just add the additional scenes without her. Olivia changed her mind and agreed that she would rather be in the scenes than out of them. The price she accepted was $30,000.
Olivia drops one digit in her demands.
