The former co-stars will sing along on a Christmas album along with some famous voices ranging from Barbra Streisand to Tony Bennett to James Taylor.

Actually, the idea was spawned from a single text message. According to USA Today, Olivia sent her pal a text over the holidays last year and mentioned their smash hit became the best-selling duet in pop music history!
John explained, "From the moment we decided to do this, magic happened. Everyone we contacted agreed to do it....I wanted people to be able to play it around the house or in the car during the holidays, and make us part of your celebration."

Proceeds from their new album will be donated to the Jett Travolta Foundation to fight children's disabilities and to the Olivia newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre in Melbourne.
