Apparently John Travolta likes to cruise the gym at 3 a.m., and an unwitting, very hot straight guy thought this was totally awesome and not creepy at all and decided to post a pic to Reddit to prove it.
This all happened at a 24-hour gym in Ocala, Florida, and young, strapping, handsome straight guy Justin Jones works out there in the middle of the night because he works late and sometimes he does that. And Travolta totally also does that, and because he was clearly so smitten with Jones — asking him if he was married, where he worked, etc. — he even let himself be photographed without his toupee.
It made it on BuzzFeed. It made it into the international press — partly because of the lack of hair piece — and even Good Morning America/ABC News reported the story.
Jones says Travolta “came up and introduced himself” and was “a pretty nice guy.” They talked for 15 full minutes.
Jones also seems oblivious to the fact that Travolta was obviously hitting on him, and if he hadn’t been quite so heterosexual there would have been an invitation back to the showers.
So funny. Here’s the full-size photo.
I think bald men are hot.
Looks like they both forgot their hairpieces.
Yeah, this Jones dude is a total hottie. Fuck, I’d be all over that. So wtf was Travolta doing in Ocala of all places? Not exactly a great part of FL. Very strange… And thank goodness he was photographed without the hairpiece. He still looks fine either way, and is still a good actor and a cool guy either way. It’s also weird that he would be at a public gym and not one at whatever hotel/resort/private home he was staying at. Maybe he was just cruising… but I highly doubt he’d jeopardize his career trying to hookup at a gym. Going and oogling and innocently flirting with hotties like this dude is probably about as far as he takes it…
Ew. who’d want to follow him to the showers? Dude looks gross now.
why is that white guys are easily to get bald?
Testosterone, you guys produce it less that’s why you have smaller dicks
I wasnt asking about genitals you know GOSH
That’s kinda sad he’s a great actor. What happened to his face and his hair.. He ageing so fast
Aging so fast? Compared to what? The photos of him with his hairpiece? The way he looked when he was young?
What happened to his face and hair is he got old. He’s 60.
Poor horny Travolta. Still much respect for him for doing things the hard way like the rest of us mortals instead of using his money and contacts
Much ado about nothing. This story only shows that they were talking. Does talking to someone always have to have sexual implications? And why are gays so interested when other gays get “outed.” So what is he’s gay. He’s a part of Hollywood’s elite with with many films to his credit.
He appears to have led a very decent life with a wife and children. He is kind, generous and friendly to all he meets.
Gossip queens/columnists need to find other stories that are not filled with unfounded inuendo and slander.
…and he had such a harrowing experience with Jett!
Exactly.
It’s not at all “apparent” that “Travolta likes to cruise the gym at 3 a.m.” Apparently a Hollywood celebrity goes to the gym at 3 a.m. to avoid the crowds and publicity seekers. And if you were going to the gym to cruise men, why would you go when the place is likely to be empty?
The statement that “Jones also seems oblivious to the fact that Travolta was obviously hitting on him” confuses innuendo with fact. It’s not at all obvious Travolta was hitting on Jones. The notion that “Travolta was obviously hitting on him” is conclusion, not a fact.
As for “young, strapping, handsome straight guy Justin Jones,” there’s no actual evidence that Jones is straight.
And the proper term is “hairpiece,” not “toupee.” A toupee is “a small wig that is worn by a man to cover a bald spot on his head.” No small wig could could cover Travolta’s extensive baldness.
I agree that it makes sense that celebrities would pick off hours to work out if they need to use a public gym. But Travolta wasn’t traveling in this case. This is a guy worth $165 million who owns five private jets and has an estate worth $4.9 million located in the same city where this took place. It’s possible he chose 3:00 a.m. for privacy, but if he really wanted to work out in private, I suspect he could afford a private gym at home.
“Apparently” cruising the gym at 3 AM? That’s not at all apparent. How many guys can you expect to pick up at that hour?
About 10 years ago, a guy I work with was attending a tradeshow in Orlando. Late one night he decided to relax in one of the hotel’s jacuzzis. Guess who joined him and started putting the moves on him? My co-worker said, “No thanks” and got up and left. Travolata is as gay as a $3 bill.
“Travolata is as gay as a $3 bill.” …which implies that you don’t think he’s gay.
Then what was the point of your anecdote about the trade show incident, suggesting that he is gay?
I would subscribe forever to the news organization that has the guts to tell this story with the headline, “John Travolta is a total power bottom.”, because we all know that’s practically true.
Nothing like those 3am workouts. Un-flattering to ALL involved. For what it is worth, Travolta should have never agreed to a shot without his hairpiece. Or any photo,in this venue.
Bad choices, all around.
Do really think Travolta has to give his consent before he can be photographed? The courts have held that anyone, including minors, can be photographed anywhere, without consent, where there is no reasonable expectation of privacy.
In this venue? The venue is a 24-hour gym where no one has any reasonable expectation of privacy.
If Travolta cared about being seen without his hairpiece, then why did he go the gym without it?
Hmmmm
Ah the days as Tony Manero are gone!!
