Olivia nervous about anthem at Cup
A NERVOUS Olivia Newton-John has arrived at Flemington racecourse ahead of the Melbourne Cup.
The singer, with her husband John Easterling by her side, said she was a tad nervous but also excited about singing the national anthem later in the day.
"It's a first, and I love firsts," she told reporters as she posed for photographs in the Myer marquee.
Newton-John, who has only attended one other Melbourne Cup, posed with Myer models Jennifer Hawkins and Rebecca Twigley.
In the Emirates' India-themed marquee, royal Zara Phillips, the daughter of Princess Anne, and an experienced horsewoman in her own right, mingled with guests.
Earlier, as the action in the exclusive Birdcage enclosure heated up, crowds jostled for position on the lawn in front of the race track as others filed into the stands.

Olivia Neutron Bomb, you cannot be married to 2 people at the same time.
What's so nervous about singing the national anthem, even I could do it, out of key but with undestinguished pride.
Get a tip from LCurryK if this is only a publicity deal, cause it's poor.
