John Travolta gay rumors has been finally addressed. In an interview with Daily Beast, the "Pulp Fiction" actor spoke about work and his public persona, including allegations which he claims are all "just about people wanting money".
John Travolta gay allegations have resurfaced as the Hollywood star's alleged ex-lover, Doug Gotterba, announced that he will come out with a tell-all book by next year. According to the report from The Hollywood Gossip, the unauthorized author said it will include shocking details of his six-year romance with the now 60-year-old Hollywood star.
Doug Gotterba narrated to The Hollywood Gossip how John Travolta first seduced him during his interview to be the actor's pilot in September 1981. The 62-year-old claimed that said incident led to a relationship.
Four years after supposedly breaking up with Doug Gotterba in 1987, John Travolta married actress Kelly Preston in 1991. The two are currently maintaining a strong stand against the John Travolta gay scandal and have been appearing in public together amid the ongoing controversy.
John Travolta's attorney initially made a cease-and-desist order against Doug Gotterba, said Daily Mail.
When Daily Beast inquired about the issue, and John Travolta responded: "This is every celebrity's Achilles heel. It's just about people wanting money. That's all. It happens on many levels."
The actor told Daily Beast that he is aware of how his star status makes him a target for these types of allegations, so he "does not care that much about it".
John Travolta added: "Other people may attack it back more than I do, but I let all the media stuff go a long time ago because I can't control it. I think that's why it persists, to some degree."
When asked if he finds the John Travolta gay allegations offensive, he admitted to Daily Beast: "I found it most offensive with the loss of my son. I felt like that was the lowest I'd ever felt."
The actor explained: "Sex stuff is always going to be interesting to somebody, but you stay away from family. You really should. With that, I always felt like the media-not all of the media, but parts of it-went too low there."
When Daily Beast pried if he was not even given enough time to grieve following the death of his son years ago, John Travolta answered: "Exactly. That's the hardest part."
"The rest of the stuff I can deal with, but that one really made me question the whole thing," John Travolta added.
