Pilot claims six year Gay affair with John Travolta

[Mookster]

John Travolta's former pilot has hit out at the Saturday Night Fever star for accusing him of 'wanting money' in a pending lawsuit between the pair.

Doug Gotterba - who claims he had a six-year gay affair with Travolta when he worked for him in the 1980s - released a statement to MailOnline refuting Travolta's comments.

In an interview with The Daily Beast this week Travolta, 60, was asked about the pending lawsuit with Gotterba, to which he replied: 'This is every celebrity's achilles heel. It's just about people wanting money. That's all. It happens on many levels.'

Responding to Travolta's comments, Gotterba said: 'What John Travolta said about me in a recent interview is an inaccurate description of what our court case is about.

'Our dispute is purely about declaratory relief and will be a non-monetary judgement. This is about the truth and my right for a court to decide who is telling the truth, not for Mr Travolta to make a judgement.'

I hope Gotterba wins.

FYI, Previous thread from mid July on an article by DailyMail about Gotterba, his lawsuit and the book he is writing.

Thanks. I hadn't seen that one. Much like the person who posted that thread, I couldn't care less who Travolta sleeps with. I also think this guy not asking for money doesn't say much at all as he stands to make quite a bit more from book sales and related events. I'm more interested in the legal rulings than anything.

Travolta will probably settle this one of of court, too. Rumors have it that Gloria Allred's clients (Travolta massage accusers) John Doe #1 & 2 were quietly paid off to go away quietly. When's the last time you heard about these cases? Gloria has long been in the business of taking on high profile clients (generally, actors), calling press conferences to embarrass them publicly, then eventually settling their cases quietly.

I doubt Travolta wants his former longtime secretary Joan Edwards to say any more than she already has.

Interesting. Gotterba asked for a "non-monetary" judgement, but offered to not write his tell-all book in return for $10 million. Hmmm...
