Look Who's Talking! John Travolta on Baby Ben's First Words

January 13, 2012 Candid Confessions

Actor John Travolta spoke with "Extra's" Renee Bargh at the Qantas Spirit of Australia party, and told her the latest on his 1-year-old baby boy, Benjamin. "He's walking, he's talking. He says, 'basketball.' If you ask him, 'Who did it, Benjamin?' he says, 'I did it.'"

Travolta said he and wife Kelly Preston play tennis every day, explaining who usually wins. "Well, I still have the edge. I play six games a day and I lift weights for about an hour."

He added, "I wanted to get fit for the movie ["Killing Season"] because I play an ex-Serbian soldier, so I wanted to be in somewhat good shape. Movies always help me get in shape." John's mob flick, "Gotti: In the Shadow of My Father" will begin shooting in the summer.

John reunited with his "Grease" co-star Olivia Newton John at the L.A. shindig. Olivia admitted she doesn't get to see John very often, but when she does, it's usually at events. The actress smiled, "It's always lovely to see him."

The event honored new Qantas ambassador, Miranda Kerr - a Victoria's Secret model and wife of Orlando Bloom.
