Evidence of a pattern or just someone jumping on the bandwagon? We reported yesterday that an LA masseur had filed a $2 million lawsuit against John Travolta for sexual assault saying the actor touched his penis, asked for sex and masturbated in his presence. Now a second masseur has come forward making similar allegations and launching another lawsuit.
Once more the plaintiff is remaining anonymous, but according to the complaint (as reported by Radar Online), ‘“Travolta… indicated that he likes a lot of ‘glutes’ work, meaning a massage on his buttocks…While [the plantiff] was massaging near Travolta’s buttocks area, Travolta would open his legs and spread his butt cheeks open and had a full erection and would maneuver in a way to try to force Doe Plaintiff No. 2 to touch his anus.’
Radar says that the first complainant has commented that, “Having a second person come forward and say that he went through the same thing makes me feel vindicated.”
Although it’s still difficult to judge the truth of all this, with one complaint Travolta had a good chance of getting rid of it quickly and hoping everyone would forget it ever happened (adding it to the long list of allegations about his sexuality over the years), but two of them are more difficult to ignore.
There’s also the chance more complaints will now emerge, especially if this does turn out to be evidence of a pattern. At the moment though it’s impossible to tell what’s true and what’s not, although it should be added that the actor categorically denies all the allegations and says he can prove he wasn’t even in California when the first assault is said to have taken place.
