Marty Singer, counsel for embattled star John Travolta, denies allegations his team offered one of Trvaolta’s accusers $125,000 to drop his suit and disappear.Atlanta massage therapist John Truesdale, a.k.a. John Doe #2, claims the offer was made last week, after Truesdale fired his original lawyer and signed on with celebrity ambulance chaser Gloria Allred.
Truesdale, 40, claims the Saturday Night Fever star groped him, grabbed him between his legs and pleasured himself in his presence back in January. He withdrew his original $2 million lawsuit, filed while he was being represented by Okorie Okorocha, but has indicated he might refile in a new jurisdiction.
Singer doesn’t care if the lawsuit is filed on Mars, he’s not having it: Not one penny has been paid nor do we have any intention to pay any money for these ridiculous and false claims,” the attorney said in the statement.
Meanwhile, Radar Online dug up a source on Truesdale that says he was fired from a spa gig almost a decade ago for being “sexually inappropriate” with female clients.

Does anyone actually go to a masseur for a massage?

Though Travolta doesn’t look that great now, it still doesn’t seem like he would have a hard time getting a handy from a masseur… or at least you would think he would have made his intentions clear before he was naked in the room with somebody. What kind of guy just starts groping people randomly?? I dunno.. I think there’s definitely some truth to these allegations but not 100%.

@Roxorz:
I think you figured out the reasons why people are reporting him now, but not when he was younger. LOL
Additionally, I think that all around in the last few years sympathy for these older, very wealthy celeb closet cases has gone down.

This story involving JT is getting old, however I wonder how many massages he has gotten where happy endings were had by all and no one complained nor felt the need to file a lawsuit as compensation was generous and not like happy endings are so unusual, esp when the client is ‘generous’?

Methinks Mr. Truesdale is a bullshit artist.

Mr. Truesdale is a bullshit artist, methinks. Shakespearean fail.
