Kelly Preston Born: October 13, 1962 in Honolulu, HI
Biography:Actress "Kelly Preston" was first seen on a national basis in the last-billed role of a general's daughter on the weekly 1983 TV drama "For Love and Honor". She established herself as an agreeable comedienne in such films as "Mischief" (1985) and "Secret Admirer" (1985), then became lost in the turgid melodramatics of "52 Pick-Up" (1986). Her big movie break was supposed to have been her co-starring stint with "Arnold Schwarzenegger" and "Danny De Vito" in "Twins" (1988), but the role was too nondescript to engender any enthusiasm. Nonetheless, Preston persevered, delivering great performances in such offbeat fare as the 1993 made-for-cable movie "Arthur Miller's The American Clock". In the latter half of the 1990s, Preston's perseverance began to pay off, first with a substantial role in "Cameron Crowe"'s widely acclaimed "Jerry Maguire". She continued to do comedy, appearing in "Nothing to Lose". See more.....
John Travolta Born: February 18, 1954 in Englewood, NJ
Biography:During the last few years of the 1970s, "John Travolta" reigned as one of the most towering stars in Hollywood, second, perhaps, only to Burt Reynolds and Robert Redford as a top male box office draw. After a string of hits in films, on television, and on the radio, Travolta emerged as a seemingly unstoppable cultural phenomenon, defining tastes in music and fashion while dominating innumerable columns of newspapers and tabloids. Like so many other celebrities, Travolta's initial fame proved short-lived, however, and by the mid-1980s the media and the public alike began to regard him as an outmoded relic of his era.
