Travolta Responds: "Scientology Is Not Homophobic In Any Way...It's One Of The More Tolerant Faiths"

Travolta Responds: "Scientology Is Not Homophobic In Any Way...It's One Of The More Tolerant Faiths"

So it has already proved, although perhaps not in the way that Travolta expected. Gay activists in the United States were quick to complain that Travolta, as a follower of Scientology, had no business taking on the role.

Travolta gives such opinions short shrift: "Those comments were from just one guy, and John Waters blew them right out of the water. There is nothing gay in this movie. I'm not playing a gay man.

"Scientology is not homophobic in any way, in fact it's one of the more tolerant faiths. Anyone's accepted." The subject closed, our conversation returns to musicals, which, says Travolta, "are in my blood. It is a shame that I've not done more, and I do slightly regret turning down Chicago."
