Princess Leia has a bone to pick with Tony Manero. In a no-holds-barred interview published Friday on Advocate.com, the perpetually frank Carrie Fisher opined about her gay fans, what it was like to be married to a man who later came out of the closet — and those career-long rumors concerning John Travolta. “My feeling about John has always been that we know and we don’t care. Look, I’m sorry that he’s uncomfortable with it, and that’s all I can say.” But the former Danny Zuko cares — he cares a lot. The notoriously litigious actor/Scientologist most recently sent a stern warning to Gawker after it published “false and outrageous” claims regarding the star’s alleged long-standing bathhouse habits, a story Travolta’s team dismisses as “blatant defamatory lies.”
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts
