John Travolta will be heading to court to defend himself against a lawsuit that claims the actor assaulted a Royal Caribbean employee.

A federal judge has thrown out a petition from Travolta's lawyer that requested the lawsuit be handled through private arbitration.

As a result of this ruling, the 58-year-old Pulp Fiction star will have to head to court and publicly face graphic accusations from Fabian Zanzi, who has accused Travolta of "forcefully embracing" him during a neck massage.

Zani says the actor engaged in contact that was "nonconsensual, inappropriate, extreme and outrageous" after disrobing during a June 2009 cruise. The lawsuit also claims Travolta offered the former cruise line employee $12,000 to stay quiet.

Travolta has denied all allegations.

John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John have teamed up for the holiday track "I Think You Might Like It."

The Grease co-stars seem to still enjoy each other's company after all these years, and John's kids and wife Kelly Preston are also featured in the video.

The song is part of the twosome's holiday album This Christmas. Time to light up the yuletide log and get into the spirit of the season!

He's had a rough couple months, but it appears John Travolta didn't let his sex scandal bring him down!

The A-list actor and the rest of the cast of The Savages took care of their promotional duties in Rome today, and we have to give it to the Grease actor for putting on a smile for the cameras. The 58-year-old looks amazing for his age, but we have to ask - what is with his hair? We all know you're bald, Johnny, so just rock it!

The famous Scientologist was just honored with a lifetime achievement award at the San Sebastian Film Festival, and the action star opened up about his outlook on the future and his contentment with his personal life.

"I don't believe in regrets. I believe your future's in your tomorrows, but I do believe you learn from the past. It's been a good life. It's been filled with ups and downs, and fascinating adventures. As long as it's the right wife and the right family, I think it's marvelous. I have the right one, and I'm very happy for it. I know we're kind of dinosaurs in Hollywood, being together so long. But it works," he said.

Maybe all those masseurs were lying? He sounds like a happily married man!

John Travolta and Kelly Preston struck a pose outside of the George V hotel in Paris with son Benjamin today, and the happy couple were later joined by their 12-year-old daughter Ella Bleu at Pizza Pino restaurant.

John and Kelly are in Paris to celebrate their 21st wedding anniversary, and they even flew out a small group of friends for the occasion. On September 5, 1991 the lovebirds had a ceremony at the Hotel de Crillon in Paris, but since their first nuptials were officiated by a French Scientology minister, they had to have a second "official" ceremony on September 12 in Daytona Beach, Florida.

No word on whether any masseuses were invited...

Could this cast be any sexier?

Blake Lively channeled old Hollywood glamour in a gorgeous Zuhair Murad Couture dress while walking the red carpet for the Savages premiere in Westwood.

John Travolta, who brought along wife Kelly Preston, enjoyed displaying some PDA for all the cameras to capture. So sweet!

Also hitting the star-studded premiere ... Salma Hayek, who sizzled in her green Gucci gown. Ay ya yay!

See all of the celebrities who attended the big event in our gallery below.

John Travolta and his lawyer Marty Singer are being sued by author Robert Randolph ... the man who wrote the book "You'll Never Spa In This Town Again."

Aside from writing the book, Randolph also contributed to a 2010 Gawker article called "The Secret Sex Life of John Travolta" which made allegations that Travolta had gay encounters in bath houses.

As a result, Singer sent a response to the website saying the allegations against his client were false. Randolph says the attorney also made "defamatory statements" against him ... alleging that the author had gone to a mental institution. Randolph's lawsuit says the following:

"Several of the statements made by Defendant Singer, on behalf of Defendant Travolta, are untrue and amount to defamatory statements sought to disparage the quality of [Randolph's] property and reputation and to induce members of the public to believe [Randolph] is an unreliable source and thus abstain from purchasing" his book."

In response, Travolta's rep released the following statement:

"The lawsuit filed by Robert Randolph is absurd. The suit is based on a privileged communication, and it will promptly be thrown out by the court. To evaluate the credibility of Robert Randolph and his ridiculous lawsuit one need look no further than his own statements published on his website stating that he sustained “permanent brain damage” and had to “retrain” his brain."

In the wake of John Travolta's masseuse scandal, the National Enquirer is now reporting that the Pulp Fiction actor and wife Kelly Preston are set to divorce.

The magazine revealed that their impending split is due to alleged pictures of Travolta cross-dressing, with pictures show the 58-year-old actor wearing a white dress, brown belt, earrings and blonde wig complete with make up. The photos were obtained by the magazine from a Los Angeles party in 1997 that John attended, six years after marrying Kelly Preston.

"She's put up with John's double life for decades while his behavior remained in the shadows," a source told the publication. "But all this coming out in public has humiliated her. Kelly is absolutely destroyed."

Many stories from the National Enquirer are usually taken with a grain of salt, and even with Travolta being in the news for sexual battery allegations, this can all be a falsified story in order to capitalize off the recent negative press.

They have been through their share of heartache and scandal, but this is one Hollywood couple that seems in it for the long haul!

Kelly Preston recently shared a touching video on Vimeo that her husband John Travolta made as a Mother's Day tribute, and let's just say it brought a tear to our eye. Sweet personal photos of the family are shown as Barbra Streisand "That Face" plays in the background.

"My husband, Johnny, made his directorial debut creating a special Mother's Day video for me. I was so moved and love it so much that we wanted to share it with all of you. Happy Mother's Day to anyone who mothers a child," the actress wrote as a caption.

The couple's eldest son Jett died from a seizure in 2009, and now they're facing more hardship as the Grease star's sexual harassment scandal heats up, so it's nice to see that through it all they still have such love and respect for each other!
