A family member said, “Annette had recently started having difficulty breathing … and when she went to the doctor she learned that she had a cancerous tumor in one of her lungs.”
“They call me Cha Cha. Because I’m the best dancer at St. Bernadette’s.”
Lindsay Lohan will appear in the upcoming ‘Gotti: Three Generations’ movie.
After days of conflicting reports, it’s now confirmed that the actress will play mafia man John Gotti Jr.’s wife, Kim Gotti, in a two-movie deal. In addition to ‘Gotti,’ Lohan will also appear in ‘Mob Story.’
“We’re very pleased to have Lindsay on-board for both of these films,” executive producer Marc Fiore said in a statement. “She has been very enthusiastic about the Gotti project, and after resuming discussions with her, we were impressed by her commitment to the film and felt she would be a perfect Kim Gotti.”
Lohan was previously in discussions to play Victoria Gotti, but talks eventually broke down between her management team and the producers. Fiore even announced earlier in the day that negotiations with Lohan had ended and she would not be appearing in the film.
But Lohan patched things up and officially joined the cast. “I’m really excited to be back on set and clear up all the misinterpretations about me and show this is what I love to do,” Lohan told the Associated Press. “I think it’s such an iconic story. I’m honored to be working with John Travolta and Joe Pesci.”
Lindsay Lohan is reportedly close to landing the role of a lifetime-playing Victoria Gotti opposite John Travolta in the upcoming biopic, ‘Gotti: Three Generations.’ And after the actress’s appearance at a NYC press conference for the film, it seems she’s even closer to sealing the deal.
The 24-year-old certainly looks the part but will the producers be able to look past her shaky history? “Lindsay is a terrific actress,” Marc Fiore, the movie’s producer said. “Nothing has been finalized, but we are definitely in talks.”
Lohan has one VIP supporting her: Victoria Gotti herself! “I think she’s incredible,” Gotti said. “I think she’s a great actress. I think she can do … any role, really.”
“She had a little bit of a bumpy road recently,” she added. “I think she’s doing great; I think she’s going to continue to do great and she’s got a lot of people rooting for her.”
If finalized, Lohan would join Travolta, who has signed on to play John Gotti. “I know first hand that Lindsay Lohan happens to be a big fan of mine,” Travolta said at the press conference. “I’ve always thought she was gorgeous and talented and filled with a lot of depth. So, I think that whatever she would like to do would be great with me.”
If she nabs the part, ‘Gotti’ would be Lohan’s first role since completing a rehab stint at the Betty Ford Center. Her trial on charges of grand theft begins later this month, and if convicted, she may be spending the summer behind bars.
Looks like someone was taking his role in ‘Broken Arrow’ a bit too seriously.
Employees at Australia’s national airline, Qantas, are more than a bit miffed after actor John Travolta showed up on-screen in full pilot regalia to introduce their most recent in-flight safety video.
Travolta, who is a certified private pilot, tells passengers, “This is your captain speaking — well, maybe not today,” which Qantas employees have panned as “tacky” and “corny,” in addition to being insistent about having a “real” pilot make the announcement.
While Travolta’s experience has mainly involved flying small planes, in 2010, he famously piloted Oprah Winfrey’s entire studio audience to Australia as part of an all-expenses paid trip to celebrate her talk show’s final season.
Here’s a damning story in The National Enquirer, in which they report of a semi-secret ski and spa getaway John Travolta took with three male buddies right before Christmas.
We’ve heard that Travolta likes picking up men in spas, and Carrie Fisher recently claimed that his sexuality was an open secret in Hollywood.
Now the Enquirer reports that he left right before Christmas to meet up with three male friends at Stowe resort in Vermont, where they were seen enjoying an intimate dinner and indulging in spa treatments together.
Travolta has a one month-old baby at home, and his wife Kelly Preston is said to have pleaded with him not to take off right before Christmas.
Maybe John should add the National Enquirer to the list of lawsuits, with Gawker.
On the same day that John Travolta and his wife, Kelly Preston, welcomed their new son – his time fired off a legal letter to Gawker telling them to remove a post about his secret gay sex life.
Gawker interviewed author Robert Randolph about having seen Travolta giving blowjobs and having sex with other men in Los Angeles gay spas but the actors lawyers didn’t take this too lightly and sent off a five page legal letter demanding the post be removed.
Travolta’s lawyer, Marty Singer, says the post is “false and outrageous” and that the author himself admitted that he suffered permanent brain damage back in 2003. He also says the idea that Travolta “engaged in multiple adulterous sexual encounters in different public locations in Los Angeles (where he does not live), and that each time, the (nonexistent) events were coincidentally witnessed by [Randolph], is absolutely ridiculous.”
Gawker have yet to remove the post, or even comment on it. So they obviously aren’t too concerned with the letter, which you can read in the thumbnails below.
I kind of feel bad for John Travolta and his wife because there has always been rumors about him being gay, or at least bi. The reason I feel bad for him mostly because it must be awful having to live your whole life in the public eye and it being a lie.

Television Without Pity have come up with a list of characters that they think are the 12 funniest movie villains of all time, this is one list I think is pretty solid. Take a look and see if you agree…
Lex Luthor (Superman, Superman II)
What’s the sinister plan behind Lex’s theft of two nuclear missiles and his eventual team-up with an interplanetary despot? You’ll love this, it’s hysterical — real estate. The guy wants waterfront property, no matter how long the fallout from the sinking of California may last, and if that fails, well, he just wants Australia. Because land and money are worth millions of lives! Hi-larious! His hair may be fake, but his chutzpah is real.
Count Rugen (The Princess Bride)
It was a dry humor, but Rugen’s concern for Prince Humperdink’s well-being and charming bedside manner as he questioned Wesley after subjecting him to the wheel showed him to be a gentleman and a scholar, albeit one utterly immune to the pain of others. Of course, once Inigo Montoya discovered his whereabouts, Rugen stopped tossing off bon mots and started throwing knives.
Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare on Elm Street)
One thing that the Nightmare remake failed to count on was the appeal of Freddy the quintessential showman. The O.G. Freddy, as played by Robert Englund, loved puns, frequently employed costumes, would occasionally cross-dress and generally had a vim and verve not seen since the days of vaudeville.
The Joker (Batman)
“Never rub another man’s rhubarb.” That’s just a bit of the home-spun wisdom offered up by the thug turned hitman turned crime boss turned political aspirant known as Jack Napier. The smile may be permanently frozen on his face, but his love of Prince, funny old-man dances and low tolerance of goon failure have put semi-permanent smiles on our own faces, as well.
Betelgeuse (Beetlejuice)
He didn’t start off as the villain — he was just a freelancer, then an annoyance — but he quickly rose to villain status when he attempted to marry Lydia Deitz, ensorcelled her family, banished Mrs. Maitland to Saturn and turned Otho’s suit paisley. (Monstro!) But he did it all with a smile and a wink, right down to the old dead-woman’s-ring-finger gag. A classic.
Anton Chigurh (No Country for Old Men)
Yes, yes, the haircut is a laugh-riot, but what about the faces he makes when he kills people? The way he freaks people out with a coin toss? The word “friendo”? If his victims weren’t so worried about dying, they’d laugh, too.
Jacobim Mugatu (Zoolander)
Another Will Ferrell creation, the puffy-haired Mugatu is named after a Star Trek villain, employs Milla Jovovich as a henchwoman and designs expensive clothing based on homeless people when he’s not brainwashing models to assassinate world leaders. There is nothing about him that is not funny.
The Sheriff of Nottingham (Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves)
The Rodney Dangerfield of medieval England, the Sheriff got no respect, not from his heart’s desire Maid Marian and not from the backwards tree people living in the forest. Even his right-hand man didn’t get his jokes, asking why carving out someone’s heart with a spoon was preferable to a knife, when the Sheriff was obviously going for a gag. Heck, he even managed to find the comedy in a scene where he tries to rape Marian in front of his witch/mother, and that couldn’t have been easy.
Kaufman (Land of the Dead)
The funniest part of Dennis Hopper’s character accidentally shooting his own employee because he thought he was a zombie is that we’ve all been there. Am I right? We’re looking at you, Woody Harrelson.
Hans Landa (Inglourious Basterds)
Yes, the man is a Nazi, but he’s a whimsical one. Changing languages at will, gleefully describing what animal he most resembles, trying not to giggle as his intellect sees through disguises and brings a plan to fruition — all these things serve to endear him to us, much like we enjoy it when the cast of SNL tries hard not to crack up during a sketch. Of course, SNL isn’t responsible for the deaths of thousands of people, although there were some sketches in the 1980s that came close.
Mr. Freeze (Batman and Robin)
Another lover of puns, it seems like clever wordplay was the sole reason for Victor Fries’s villainy, aside from the whole curing-his-frozen-wife thing. And the elaborate Icecapades show he built to keep Batman and Robin at bay? With the killer hockey team? Hysterically camp! Only a villain as self-aware of his own ridiculousness could– Wait, he was serious about that? Yikes.
John Travolta (in anything)
Gabriel Shear, Swordfish. Castor Troy, Face/Off. Vic Deakins, Broken Arrow. Terl, Battlefield Earth. Howard Saint, The Punisher. Even now, there are tears in our eyes, and we’re just looking at the thumbnails on Travolta’s IMDb page. Oh, the hilarious memories.

Can you say that five times fast? According to reports, John Travolta has been engaging in a little backdoor action on the side. While his wife, Kelly Preston, is getting ready to have their baby, he’s having secret gay sex….or so they say…
Now we’re not saying it’s true, but the “National Enquirer” does come up with some doozies, doesn’t it?
According to the rag, John has been cheating on Kelly for years, mostly with men. Robert Randolph, who wrote “You’ll Never Spa In This Town Again”, said, “John Travolta has been cheating on Kelly for years! And when the details emerge, he’s gonna make Tiger Woods look like a boy scout.”
John is reportedly involved in a secret gay sex subculture in Hollywood, where he supposedly engaged in lewd sex acts with men.
Robert said, “I met John in 1998, after he married Kelly. I believe the marriage is a total fraud because John is totally into guys and has been having sex with them behind Kelly’s back for years. He came on to me a number of times. I always turned him down. But there was always some guy who was willing to have sex with him. And John didn’t stop cheating on Kelly after either of their children was born, John’s a cheating dog. It’s just been wrong, because his wife seems like such a sweet woman.”
The “National Enquirer” isn’t exactly the holy grail of journalism, so we’re going to take this story for pure entertainment value at this point.
