For a Hollywood star who has been so iconic over the years, John Travolta sure has put a lot of care into his looks especially when it came to his hair and facial hair. He has dyed it different colors and even added in a weave to give it more volume. Generally speaking, each new look is for a specific role he is going to play.
The same goes for his facial hair which has seen a number of different styles including goatee beards and handlebar mustaches. While each of these different looks has been for different roles he was playing, there is no denying that each one has been pretty jarring for the average spectator.
Major Pushover
It’s also important to be a team when it comes to parenting and to have a united front. This isn’t the case in the Travolta household as the kids know that John is a total pushover. You could say that John is a “Yes Dad.” It’s something you have to do says John, admitting to the Daily Mail that he will say yes to pretty much anything when it comes to their youngest son, Ben.
Kelly added that if Ben were to ask her for ice cream at midnight, she would, of course, tell him that it was too late and he needs to go to bed. Two minutes later he would ask his dad and John would tell him, “Sure! Do you want hot fudge on that?” How do we get an invite to the Travolta house for a midnight ice cream?
Ella Travolta Now
Many of those who are in show business would not encourage their children following in their footsteps. This is not the case in the Travolta household as their daughter Ella Bley is well on the way to becoming an actress in her own right. Now as a young adult, she is honing her craft just as her father did.
When John was asked at the 2017 SAG awards about whether he encouraged her acting career, he answered positively and said, “Yes, I want her to because she is so good at it. She is such a good performer.” Fathers are always their daughters' biggest fans, but in this case, he may have a point.
Dance With Princess Diana
One of the most iconic moments in John Travolta’s life was in 1985 when he danced with Princess Diana at the White House. It took place at a gala dinner hosted by the President at the time, Ronald Reagan. It was a surreal moment for both of them.
According to reports from the event, Nancy Raegan said that Diana wanted to dance with John Travolta, so he asked her, and she accepted. He says to this day it was one of the best moments of his life. Speaking of the moment, he said that they, “were off for 15 minutes of dancing. I’m so honored that I was able to experience it.”
You’re The One That I Want
When Travolta and the Australian actress/ singer Olivia Newton-John worked together when they starred as Danny Zuko, and Sandy Olsson in the on-screen musical "Grease" everyone could see the genuine chemistry between the two. The late great Newton-John was probably one of Travolta’s all-time crushes.
The rumors of a romance started spreading which were not silenced when they starred in other movies together. This included the flick “Two of a Kind.” The romance never went anywhere serious, and the two remained close friends right up until Olivia's untimely passing. You could often see them hanging out at Hollywood events reminiscing about the good old days.
