Julianne Hough Will Be 'Doing Her Own Thing' With Grease's Sandy

Julianne Hough keeps it chic and simple while leaving the SiriusXM studios in New York City on Tuesday afternoon (January 19).

The 27-year-old actress spoke to People briefly about taking on the iconic role of Sandy Olson for Grease: Live!

“It’s huge that I got her blessing,” Julianne dished about the movie’s portrayer, Olivia Newton-John. “She’s exactly who you hope she would be � so awesome and supportive.”

She added about getting everything right: “[Like the] ‘Tell me about it, stud,’ where I know people will be disappointed if I don’t say it like she did with her inflection, but for the most part, I am doing my own thing.”

Carlos PenaVega is also pictured below, leaving the ABC studios the day before.

FYI: Julianne wore a Paule Ka blazer, Maje pants, Vince shirt, Kurt Geiger shoes and jewelry from Melinda Maria.
