Well, the anonymous doctor decided to pay it forward, asking if Newton-John would put the jacket on display in her cancer center.
"The odds of beating a recurring cancer using the newest emerging therapies is 1,000-fold greater than someone appearing out of the blue, buying your most famous and cherished icon, and returning it to you, which is what i'm going to do," he said.
Newton-John replied in awe, asking, "Are you serious?" before hugging the buyer.
