Recent reports surfaced that two people are in custody for allegedly trying to extort money out of John Travolta and Kelly Preston. How exactly they were attempting to do it was a mystery. Until now.

According to The Daily Mail, a local politician from Grand Bahama where Jett Travolta died and a person thought to be connected with the ambulance service, demanded “millions of dollars” from John and Kelly in exchange for a picture they took of their son dying. If they didn’t follow through, they’d “sell the photo to the highest bidder.”

Out of all the things you could do, that’s one of the worst. Who goes around taking pictures of dead celebrity kids? Hot dead chicks with big tits I can maybe understand, but this is ridiculous. They should have also threatened to go to Jett’s funeral and rabbit punch him in the nads if they didn’t pay up. If you’re going to be doing something that awful, you might as well go all the way.

Update: TMZ says people tried to extort $20 million from Travolta and that a picture of a dying Jett may not be their bargaining chip although it does have something to do with the circumstances around his death. Us adds that there is only one person involved.

John Travolta and Kelly Preston may be still dealing with the fact that their son, Jett, died from a “seizure disorder,” but that hasn’t stopped two individuals from launching an extortion scheme against them. A Bahamian newspaper reported on Monday that two people are being questioned, one believed to be a politician, about a plot to fleece the grieving couple. Travolta’s lawyers issued this statement:

“Regrettably in a time of such terrible grief, there are often a few individuals who attempt to make false claims in hopes of making millions of dollars,” their statement read, according to the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union. “We will never let that happen.”

They probably took secret photos of Travolta doing things like prancing around in a speedo and having his male nanny apply sunscreen to his body at night. Well, guess what Mr. Criminal Masterminds. Everyone knows Travolta is gay. You fools!

The Travoltas bring their daughter Ella to the set of the upcoming Old Dogs, which is filming in NYC.

Those wacky Scientologists are so funny. One of their mouthpieces, Kelly Preston, is telling Starpulse that she knew she’d marry John Travolta after she saw a picture of him on a “Grease” poster. She didn’t exactly end up with Travolta right away – she was engaged to Charlie Sheen but broke up with him after he accidentally shot her in the arm, and was married to actor Kevin Gage from 1986 – 1988.

“Actress Kelly Preston knew she was destined to marry John Travolta after she saw her future husband on a poster for Grease as a teenage girl. The 44-year-old Twins star, who has been married to Travolta for 16 years, was leaving a cinema in the late 1970s when she was struck by the actor’s poster look.

“She says, ‘I did have sort of a flash. I came out of a film, saw the poster for Grease and I knew I’d be with him. I just knew. I was about 16 years old. I really knew it and it turned into, ‘I’m going to marry that man,’ and so he likes to tease me that I walked out and said, ‘I’m going to marry that man,’ and then did, ultimately.’”

Talk about the power of positive thought. I had a dream last night that I fell in love with Luke Wilson, and it was kind of flash-like, so I’m pretty sure I’m going to marry him now, based on the Kelly Preston theory of love. Travolta has recently stated that he and Kelly are going to try to have another child when they’re done filming their movie.

John Travolta and Kelly Preston are planning to extend their family – before it’s too late.

The couple are currently working on new movie Old Dogs, which they both star in. When that’s wrapped the pair will start trying for a sibling for son Jett, 15, and eight year old daughter Ella.

Travolta, 53, says, “Once we finish our new movie, we’re going to get cracking. Kelly is 44 now. The window for us to have a child, at least naturally, is closing.”

I hope he meant to say another child, not a child, since they already have two – though by most accounts, they mostly ignore their oldest child, Jett, who has autism. Apparently Scientology and autism don’t mix – our original article noted, “Autistics in Scientology are usually known as ‘degraded beings’ who brought the affliction on themselves. Kelly Preston has gone as far as saying in the past that Jett suffers from Kawasaki Syndrome like disease because of ‘environmental toxins’, with Jett reacting badly specifically to carpet cleaning chemicals.” But apparently Preston is an expert on how to treat other disorders – specifically addiction. She has opened a Scientology-based rehab facility in her native Hawaii.

“John Travolta’s wife Kelly Preston has opened a new Scientology rehab center on her native Hawaii. The new drug rehabilitation clinic, which follows the principals of Preston’s religion, will use tried and tested alternative methods to ween addicts off painkillers and hard drugs.

“Preston, who was born on and brought up in Honolulu, Oahu, says, ‘I’m convinced this rehab center works.’”

Well thank goodness we have Kelly Preston around to teach us all how to live better by denying out basic psychological makeup.

Okay, we’re doing this in several parts, because there are just too many fabulous photos from this event. We’ll start with John Travolta, walking the red carpet with the portion of his family that doesn’t have autism. He actually doesn’t look half bad, although my guess is that the list of plastic surgery procedures he’s had in the past year is about as long as the list of available treatments for his son’s autism, should he ever choose to acknowledge it. Kelly totally misread the invite and thought this was the Valley of the Dolls premiere. And I’m pretty sure Ella is sporting hair extensions.

A waitress in New York has written a book about her experiences with celebrities and their gratuity habits.

Katherine Taylor’s novel, ‘Rules for Saying Goodbye’ names some of the best and also some of the worst tippers in the entertainment industry.

Taylor lists Madonna, Tobey Maguire, Gwyneth Paltrow and Rupert Everett as the worst tippers.

Taylor worked as a West Village bartender and says that all stories in her book are legitimate.

One excerpt from the book describes her experience with actress Gwyneth Paltrow.

"Gwyneth Paltrow came in. I wanted to tell her that I had been making a list and she was on it, but Gwyneth was not stingy, only stupid. I thought she probably couldn’t calculate 15 per cent."

Who failed to leave a tip?  Everett and Madonna.  Who left a less than desirable gratuity?  Barbra Streisand and Kelly Preston.

Taylor also claims that "Paul McCartney was once too drunk to tip".

Check out these fabulous photos of different couples who were smoking hot together years ago…

Emilio Estevez and Demi Moore

Emilio and Demi were a great couple. They were both young, gorgeous and the envy of Hollywood in the mid eighties. They met in 1984 and in 1987 ended their three-year engagement.

Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed

Many cosmetic surgeries and two children later, Shannon and Gene are still together as boyfriend and girlfriend.

Did you know that George Clooney and Kelly Preston dated in the 1980’s?

It’s true.  Yep, Kelly must be kicking herself today.  She’s now married to a fat turkey who has to drag it up for movie roles..

Sean Penn and Madonna

Hot and heavy in the mid to late eighties, Sean and Madge were bound to butt heads.  They lasted longer than most expected, but after filming Shanghai Surprise their marriage went down the tubes.

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn

Another couple still around who surprisingly also never wed.  This boyfriend and girlfriend of many eons are still going strong.

Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman

Cruise and Kidman starred in the 1990 flick Days of Thunder and were soon after the hottest thing in Hollywood.  This of course was before Kidman overdosed on Botox and Cruise was rumored to be very, very gay.

Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne

Yes, that really is Sharon before the many surgeries.  Sharon and Ozzy met when Sharon’s father managed Black Sabbath.  Ozzy credits her with saving his life. They’ve been married over 20 years.  Definitely one of Hollywood’s oddest couples.

John Travolta and Kelly Preston have announced they want to try for a third child despite mounting pressure to publicly acknowledge their son’s autism. Travolta, a devout Scientologist, does not believe his son is autistic. Instead, he pretends everything is fine or claims his son has Kawasaki Syndrome, characterized by high fever, skin rash and swelling of the lymph nodes. According to Scientology, people with a mental illness are considered “degraded” and capable of curing themselves if they just work harder on the churches teachings.

That’s what I say to the terminally ill kids at the hospital. “You won’t die in 3 months if you just BELIEVE!” The kids and parents always start crying. They’re probably relieved like Travolta and Preston.

Here’s Kelly Preston in a bikini flying through the water and spreading her legs. She looks like a dolphin. A very provocative dolphin. One whose friends call slutty because they once caught her having unspeakable things done to her blowhole in the backseat of an Oldsmobile.
