Travolta denies propositioning male masseuse

Tue 8 May 2012 In: International News

John Travolta denies the claims John Travolta is flat out denying a male masseuse’s claims the actor tried to have sex with him during a massage session at a Beverly Hills hotel. The lawsuit filed in Los Angeles claims Travolta tried to have sex with the male masseur, whom he had allegedly hired for a $200-an-hour massage in January. Travolta's statement said the actor wasn't even in Los Angeles. "This lawsuit is a complete fiction and fabrication. None of the events claimed in the suit ever occurred," Travolta's publicist said in the statement. "The plaintiff, who refuses to give their name, knows that the suit is a baseless lie. It is for that reason that the plaintiff hasn't been identified with a name even though it is required to do so." The legal document, which has been publicised by celebrity news site TMZ, says Travolta met the masseuse, “John Doe” in his black Lexus SUV on January 16. The actor allegedly took the masseur to a bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel, and was given a normal one-hour massage - but then Travolta offered to give a "reverse massage". The masseur told Travolta he did not have sex with clients. The 58-year-old actor called him a "loser," but paid him double the hourly rate and left, the document claimed.
