This page describes the disguise Newton-John wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Modest, unobtrusive, and often rather quiet or shy, she is a person who is content to stay in the background or to serve as an assistant, in the supporting role rather than in the lead. She is quite humble in her own assessment of herself; she seeks perfection, with a tendency to be overly self-critical. No matter how well she does something, Olivia Newton-John always sees the flaws in it and how it could be improved. Often Newton-John will simply refuse to attempt something because she feels she cannot meet her own high standards.

She is the person others might go to for technical advice or an unbiased opinion, but not for emotional support.
