The American actors decided after a night of drinking together in Santa Barbara, California, they would join in with the celebrations next door to the bar they were at.

John said, “We were having fun, starting to relax, when we saw there was a wedding next door. We figured we’d crash it.”

At first, guests didn’t realize the actors, who were both TV stars in the late 70s, when the nuptials took place, were the real stars of shows ‘Welcome Back, Kotter’ and ‘Mork and Mindy’.

John, 55, added, “They figured out who we were. Some guy yelled out, ‘Hey, they really are Mork and Vinnie Barbarino!’ ”

The pair were reunited on the set of their latest film, comedy ’Old Dogs’, but their off-the-wall antics and on-set jokes proved too much for some of their co-stars to cope with.

John’s wife Kelly Preston, who plays Robin’s love interest in the movie, said, “The hardest part of being in a scene with any of these guys was not laughing and ruining every single take.

“And if you did laugh, the director just let us go with it, because they’re going to be goofy and try to make you laugh.”

‘Old Dogs’ – which is released next March – follows a pair of ageing sports stars played by John and Robin who are charged with looking after a pair of seven-year-old twins Robin’s character never realized he fathered.

The actor, whose eldest child Jett died after suffering a seizure on holiday in the Bahamas in January at aged 16, was astonished by the messages of support he, wife Kelly Preston and daughter Ella, nine, received from well-wishers after the tragedy.

He said, “I just want to take one moment to thank each and every one of you throughout this country, throughout the world for all your support and all your love for our family. Thank you very much.”

The ‘Pulp Fiction’ star is throwing himself into a new hobby to help cope with his grief – playing tennis late at night with his staff.

He explained to US talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, “I play at midnight. Kind of vampire style.

“The house manager and the house maintenance person, they both live my hours, so … at midnight we go to the local tennis court.”

Earlier this week, John revealed he and his family have been undergoing daily Scientology counseling to help cope with their grief.

He said, “We’ve been working very hard every day as a family to heal. We have our own way of doing it, and it has been helping.”

3. John Travolta Fights $20 Million Extortion Attempt

Tarino Lightbourne, who is accused of trying to extort money from the actor following the death of 16-year-old Jett, insists medical aid was called too late to help the boy, who had suffered a seizure in the bathroom of the family’s Bahamas holiday home on January 2.

Lightbourne said, “His pupils were fixed and dilated. He had flakey, dry bloodstains on his mouth, ears and nose.

“This boy was dead. No signs of life. Dead stiff. The veins were collapsed.”

According to the defendant, he was offered $14.3 million by Travolta’s lawyer Michael McDermott to dispose of a ‘Refusal of Transport/ Treatment’ document which the ‘Pulp Fiction’ star had signed because he and wife Kelly Preston wanted Jett to be flown back to the US for treatment.

Representatives for Travolta have admitted he signed the form, believing it to be standard procedure.

Jett was eventually taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

It is claimed that Lightbourne and his co-accused, former Senator Pleasant Bridgewater, demanded $29.25 million from Travolta and threatened to sell a story claiming the couple “intentionally killed” their son.

Both defendants deny the charges. The case continues.

3. John Travolta Fights $20 Million Extortion Attempt

John Travolta allegedly refused medical aid for his dying son, a court heard yesterday September 22.

The Hollywood star was blackmailed for $26 million after saying he didn’t want 16-year-old Jett, who had suffered a huge seizure, driven to a local hospital from the family’s home in the Bahamas but wanted him to be flown back to the US for treatment.

Eventually a paramedic at the scene asked a senior police officer to witness the signing of a “refusal of medical attention” form.

The court in Nassau, Bahamas, heard how paramedic Tarino Lightbourne allegedly threatened to make the actor’s decision public unless Travolta handed over the huge sum of money. Travolta also has a nine-year-old daughter, Ella, with wife Kelly Preston.

Police Inspector Andrew Wells says Travolta’s alleged request to take Jett to the island’s airport instead of hospital, was the first time in 27 years that he had encountered such a request.

He told the jury he signed the form and the ambulance sped away, but on the way the plan was changed and Jett was taken to the island’s Rand Memorial hospital instead of the airport.

Tragically, Jett was pronounced dead on arrival.

Speaking about the scenes at the Travolta family home on January 2, 2009, following Jett’s fatal seizure, Wells said, “Mr. Lightbourne told me Mr. Travolta wanted his son taken to the airport instead of Rand Memorial hospital. He then asked me to witness a refusal for medical attention form that he showed me. I signed that document.”

Lightbourne and his attorney Pleasant Bridgewater are jointly accused of attempting to extort and conspiring to extort by means of threats, charges they both deny.

Travolta, who is listed as one of 14 prosecution witnesses, will testify at the trial.

John Travolta was rumored to have grown disenchanted with the bizarre sci-fi religion after the death of his son Jett in January.

But his representative Paul Bloch claims the star’s faith is as strong as ever.

Bloch told People magazine: “There’s no change in the relationship between the Church of Scientology and John. He is a member and it’s as it was, now and forever.”

Jett was 16 years old when he died after suffering a seizure in the family’s Bahamian holiday home. He was autistic, a condition not recognised by the Church of Scientology.

Rick Ross, a US author and lecturer on Scientology, said: “There have been strong rumours coming out of Scientology that John Travolta is disappointed the religion was not able to help his son more.

“I think it would be very difficult for John Travolta at this stage to extricate himself from Scientology. It would be a huge move on his part because Scientology keeps files on its celebrity members containing embarrassing personal information about them.

“And Scientology has proven in the past that it has a penchant for releasing that information to embarrass people who have left and who have said things it doesn’t like. That’s why I think Travolta will want to keep his problems with the Church private.”

John and his wife Kelly – also a strict follower of Scientology – also have a daughter, Ella Bleu, nine.

The Bahamian police have confirmed the extortion attempt, TMZ claims:

“We’re told several people allegedly have demanded $20 million from John and cops are on the hunt. We now have confirmed that the alleged extortion attempt does not involve pictures of Jett as he was dying.”

The first extortion complaint came about a week ago and was supposedly placed by Travolta’s reps, according to a source close to the police. The investigation, the source claims, will conclude “very shortly.”

Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of Elvis and Scientologist has entered the discussion around death of Jett Travolta, saying that her religion isn’t to blame, despite its kooky beliefs

Now Is Not The Time.

I wished I could be writing you under happier circumstances but I cannot because Two of my very good friends, (John and Kelly Travolta ) the sweetest people in the world have just encountered the worst possible tragedy a parent could be forced to endure, the death of their son Jett.
My heart is crying and bleeding for them.
I personally would not have it in me to bury my own child.
I am writing this because I have noticed that for the most part, people and the media have been very sympathetic and respectful, but there are those certain ones that want to use this horrible tragedy as an opportunity to once again, blame and or attack Scientology?
Folks, as popular as it has been to discriminate and ridicule Scientology and Scientologist’s in the recent past , Now is NOT the time.
I realize that there is a lot of mis information out there about the subject which has caused a lot of stone throwing but we are not still in the dark ages and it is still an Unconstitutional Injustice to partake in and encourage such condemnation.
Among most of the crazy made up garbage that goes around about it , It is not true that Scientologist’s “Don’t believe in ” medical care , medicine or medical Doctors and that may have something to do with this terrible tragedy.
Just like anyone else, If one is sick , they go to the doctor, If a medication will make it better then they take it.
If they don’t then they are an idiot and you can’t blame their religion.
Whatever medical and or physical condition Jett had , I can tell you first hand that his parents were on a tireless, never ending quest to get and provide him with the absolute best care anyone could ever ask for and need, Medically, physically, emotionally, medicinally and spiritually.
I am not writing this to preach my beliefs, I am here to protect my friends.
To the few of you out there that this may apply to,
Let’s not use the tragic death of a child to facilitate your insatiable need to attack and destroy Scientology shall we?
John and Kelly have done nothing but spend their lives and their time helping others, making people happy and making peoples lives better.
Please let this family grieve in peace.

No, they just don’t believe in medical care for mental illness, but that mustn’t count I guess. Her full blog post here.

As we reported earlier, John Travolta’s only son Jett Travolta has died while the family was holidaying in the Bahamas.

What we know is that Jett Travolta has a long history with illness, and pictures of him taken recently so show him swollen around the neck, suggesting a serious medical condition.

Denial of Autism

John Travolta kept Jett Travolta out of the public eye, with media speculation since his birth that he suffered from Autism. John Travolta has regularly denied Jett suffered from autism. Pictures of Jett Travolta, although not clear, do not show classic signs of autism.

Kawasaki Disease

John Travolta stated that Jett Travolta suffered from Kawasaki Disease. Kawasaki disease affects organs, including the skin and mucous membranes, lymph nodes, blood vessel walls, and the heart. Jett Travolta is claimed to have died from heart failure that would sadly be inline with Kawasaki Disease; cardiac complications are cited as the most important aspect of the disease. His appearance would also suggest lymph node issues; Swollen lymph nodes (frequently only one lymph node is swollen), particularly in the neck area are common in Kawasaki Disease sufferers.

Long Life

80% of Kawasaki Disease sufferers die by the age of 5, so Jett’s survival to 16 while not rare, was fortunate. Reports say he shared his fathers love of flying, and took flying lessons.

A member of staff at the hotel– where Travolta owns a few oceanside homes– told Access Hollywood that she was “not allowed to talk about [the incident].” E! Online reports that a policeperson said “Jett apparently banged his head on a bathtub Friday morning,” which may have triggered the seizure.

John Travolta confirmed that his son suffered from Kawasaki Syndrome, although mentions that Jett was autistic have been denied. Travolta and his wife Kelly also have an eight-year-old daughter Ella Bleu.
