John Travolta Reveals Baby Name

John Travolta and Kelly Preston's baby boy will arrive in about three weeks, and they will name him Benjamin, John tells Star magazine.

John, 56, and Kelly, 48, announced they were expecting in May.

"It's impossible to keep a secret ... especially one as wonderful as this," they said in a statement. "We want to be the first to share this great news with everyone that we are expecting a new addition to our family."

They have a daughter, Ella Bleu, 10, and lost their son Jett at the age of 16 last year.

It's not like they don't have the means to care for him....to each their own.

I didn't explain. I have a friend whose parents passed away before he hit 30. They had him later in life like John and Kelly. I was just remembering how he said he felt cheated on time.

I am so happy for them. Though nothing can replace their first boy, Jet, I think it's very sweet that they will have a second chance with another little boy.

What's weird is that one of my friends is also expecting a 2nd baby, yet somehow this is not news in HP..

You didn't read the article. John Travolta is in fact the first pregnant man in America. Have you seen pictures lately? So ... that's kind of a big deal.

Replacement Travolta? Yes, I understand that was mean.

Will this be a suitable replacement for the son they lost a couple of years ago? I understand John was devastated when his son, Jet, died, but.......

"suitable replacement"? Seriously, if you knew what losing a son/daughter is like you wouldn't be saying that.

How can you replace a loved one? No such thing.

LOL@ Scientologists naming their kid after a $50 bill!

Kinda like the Cruises, naming their kid the Japanese word for "pickpocket."

Let's hope the Travoltas don't try to play doctor with this one!

Benjamin franklin is on the $100 bill

Grant is on the $50

LOL...reckon you can tell I don't use paper money! Well, $100 bill is twice as good as a $50!

Now that you mention it, I remember seeing a $50 where some wit had drawn shades and a bandana on Grant. He makes a great biker, lol!
