GREASE: LIVE'S Keke Palmer was deeply moved by her co-star's valiant efforts in Sunday night's show, telling ET: "To see her grace -- that's the kind of thing that ended up bringing a lot of tears to our eyes."

In this live television adaptation of the musical classic, the beginning of senior year means the end of Danny and Sandy's summer romance - until Sandy unexpectedly transfers to Danny's high school. With their friends pulling them in different directions, it's up to Danny and Sandy to stay hopelessly devoted as they make their way from Rydell High to a new frontier.
