John Travolta decided to skip the premier of “The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3.”

Travolta and his wife has still not talked directly to reporters since the death of their son, Jett, in January.

At an earlier press conference, Denzel Washington said, “I talked to John (recently). Needless to say, he’s struggling. He’s struggling. More than talking to him, I listened to him, for about two or three hours. It’s going to take time. What can you say but just be there as a friend? He’s such a sweet, sweet person.”

Travolta sent a message through “Pelham” producer Todd Black, who told the audience assembled in the Mann Village Theater that, “John sends his love and thanks to everyone in Hollywood for all the support you’ve given him at this difficult time.”

I pulled this picture from Perez Hilton’s website. It says this is Halle Berry. I can hardly believe it.

David Carradine

For those of you who do not know yet, David Carradine (72) , star of “Kung Fu” and “Kill Bill,” was found dead in Bangkok, Thailand.

He was in Thailand filming “Stretch” and was discovered last Thursday in his hotel room. Initial reports claimed the Carradine committed suicide, but now the possibility of Autoerotic Asphyxiation is in the forefront. This is because there are some reports that say he was found in the hotel closet with a cord wrapped around his genitals and even his hands tied behind his back.

Carradine’s family is now asking for the FBI to investigate.

I can’t say that I really like Zac Efron’s appearance on Saturday Night Live. I just don’t think it was funny, especially compared to Seth Rogen and especially Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s appearances. Nonetheless, this video is pretty good, but Zac really isn’t the main focus of it all. Thomas Lennon from Reno 911 is the one bringing this video to life, as well as Nicole Sullivan from Mad TV.

I was not a big fan of the Borat movie, but this definitely looks a step-up from that.
