John Travolta and Kelly Preston will bury their son Jett this afternoon, according to new reports by the AP. Jett was just 16 years old when he died last Friday after striking his head on a bathroom fixture during a seizure. Us magazine says…
Jett will be buried in Ocala, Florida, where he lived with his family for several months out of the year. A time has not yet been announced.
The 16-year-old died from a seizure on Friday afternoon at his family's home in The Bahamas, according to autopsy results released Monday. His body was cremated on Monday, and his ashes were flown to the U.S.
"John is distraught," Travolta's attorney and confidant, Michael McDermott, and Michael Ossi, the family's lawyer, told Usmagazine.com Saturday during an interview in which they asked to be jointly quoted.
"This is the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to him, and he needs to go through a process of healing," the lawyers added. "John and Kelly are suffering total misery. They were so close to their son. This is hard to accept."
This really is sad. If I were there I would give Kelly Preston a big hug. Then rub her ass a little. Because, ya know, maybe.
The autopsy of Jett Travolta was complete within the past hour, and although the complete findings may never be officially released, reports indicate the cause of death was a blow to the head. It is said he hit his head on a bathtub or toilet, but it is unclear whether he was having a seizure and then hit his head, or hit his head during a seizure. To be fair to Jett, bathrooms are basically killing chambers, nothing but slick wet tile and sharp ceramic and metal corners, so I can definitely understand someone in his condition getting killed in there. More from TMZ:
We've spoken with John Travolta's lawyer and close friend, Michael McDermott, and family attorney Michael Ossi, both of whom are with John in the Bahamas … they say the intimation that Jett went undiscovered for hours is absolutely false. Police have said the last time anyone saw Jett was when he went to the bathroom on January 1. His body was discovered by nanny Jeff Kathrein the next day at 10 AM. In fact, McDermott and Ossi say it appears Jett went back and forth to his room and the fatal injury occurred "very shortly" before Jett was found on the bathroom floor — McDermott called it a "small window of time."
McDermott and Ossi tell us two nannies were present on the trip and Jeff was by his side 24/7. There was a baby monitor device by Jett's side and there was also a chimer in the bathroom when the door opened.
This whole thing is pretty awful. One can't help but wonder if the Travoltas laugh-out-loud-stupid religion prevented them from addressing Jetts very obvious illnesses, because Scientology believes that UFOs who wear belts exist but Autism does not. I'm also curious about this because this shit is depressing, and I start to wander off mentally as I'm reading these articles. About halfway through this one i checked out and started to hum "Winter Wonderland" and then thought that sledding seems like fun. But if you want to read all this, knock yourself out.
Jett Travolta, the 16-year-old son of John Travolta who has always been rumored to be autistic but never officially diagnosed, died today in the Bahamas. And not as in, "from laughter", I mean the real kind. TMZ says…
Rand Memorial Hospital in the Bahamas tells TMZ the son of John Travolta died today. We're told 16-year-old Jett was vacationing with Travolta and wife Kelly Preston. We do not know the circumstances of his death. There have been reports that Jett was autistic, though Travolta has denied it, saying he suffers from Kawasaki Syndrome, a condition which often leads to heart disease.
I assume this is sad, but the good news is I bet Scientology funerals are exciting. A big picture of L Ron Hubbard and they’ll gather around wearing white robes and drink some unnamed blue liquid and then shoot Jetts coffin into space like at the end of Star Trek 2 when Spock died. Is this the end of Jett, or merely the beginning!!!
John Travolta took off his wig shaved his head for a new movie called "From Paris With Love", and here he is filming in the aforementioned City of Light. They thought about calling it "Jocks-N-Cocks", but it was decided that was, "not gay enough."
Longtime Scientologist Nancy Cartwright — best known as the voice of Bart Simpson — gave the church of scientology $10 million last year, twice as much as even scientology superstar Tom Cruise, who gave just under 5 million. Page Six says:
It was all part of Scientology’s Global Salvage effort, which aims to “de-aberrate” Earth — meaning to rid mankind of psychology ills and other “aberrant” behavior.
Here are some of the celeb gifts from 2007: Nancy Cartwright: $10 million. Kirstie Alley: $5 million. John Travolta: $1 million. Kelly Preston: $1 million. Priscilla Presley: $50,000.
"De-aberate" isn't a real word of course, but if it were it would mean the exact opposite of "lust for money", because scientology likes that a whole lot. Tom Cruise, seen above with ATM's Katherine Bell and Kelly Preston, and here with easily duped lottery tickets Jason Lee and Erika Christensen, should be ashamed of himself. 5 million? They'll never find and stop the alien lord who invented aberating at this rate.
The Daily Mail has a picture of John Travolta making a move on 91-year-old Kirk Douglas while accepting a lifetime achievement award at the Santa Barbara Film Festival. Keep in mind it was Travolta accepting the award, not Douglas. And Douglas wasn't presenting the award, he was just standing there. And if you need any further evidence that Travolta is gay, read what the director of Hairspray said about life on the set with Travolta in drag:
"Crew members would come up and give a little goose to the butt or the (breasts) or something and I think that he enjoyed it because I think that it made him feel like he was accomplishing his goal, like he was really being sold as a woman. And I think that that was really important to him that he not be perceived as a guy doing this in drag - that he genuinely be perceived as a female on set and I think it totally made him giddy to think that the crew was sort of trned on in a weird way but it was really, really fun.”
I know I've said this a billion times but when I was bartending at hotels in Marina del Rey and Santa Monica, Travolta used to hit on me and invite me up to his room. That dude is gay. I feel bad for the straight guys on that set. If I saw Travolta coming at me dressed as a woman, free to be himself under the guise of "acting", I would cut a rope and drop a sandbag on his head. And if that missed I would fake my own death, just tip over a light and climb under it and then cut my head like they do in wrestling and hope that my ever expanding pool of blood would scare him off.
