A Malibu estate with decades of Hollywood ties and six degrees of separation between the film “Grease” and the social network Myspace is on the market in Malibu at $7.9 million.
Among previous owners of the two-story ranch-style home is actress-singer Olivia Newton-John, who sold the property to television producer Neal Martens and his wife, producer/writer Carol Black, in 1994.
A decade later, Oscar-winning actress Sally Field acquired the property from Marlens and Black for about $4.8 million. She would sell the house to the current owners, former CEO of Myspace Mike Jones and his wife, Jennifer, in 2011 for $5.65 million.
