John Travolta Has Done Something Embarrassing Again

Oh man — John Travolta, right? Remember when he was this guy?

And this guy?

And this guy?

…And then all of a sudden he was this guy?

And this guy?

And then, inexplicably, he became this guy?

He’s had a pretty hard few years, I guess. There haven’t been a lot of roles for him, and the ones that have come along have, for the most part, flopped. Not only that, but his headlines have revolved around scandals and tragedies: the cross-dressing, the masseuse abuse, and the death of his autistic son, Jett, in 2009.

So you know what, everyone? Let’s give John Travolta a break.

If he wants to grow a goatie, let him do it.

If he wants to pretend he’s not 59 any more, so be it.

And if he wants to be paid a whole heap of money to sequentially take off his clothes and dance with topless guys on the beach in perhaps the cheesiest/worst commercial for a Brazilian cachaça ever, that is okay! He deserves it!

Stop laughing at him. He has had a tough time, and he is doing what he can.
