Kelly drank ALL the Kool-Aid, so I'm sure the kids are deeply involved. And I'm sure that is probably what keeps him with Kelly - if he divorces her and/or comes out, she and the kids would disconnect from him and he'd never see them again.
But that has to be an incredibly shitty situation, and it is apparently leading to some really inappropriate behavior on his part (assuming the rumors are true - but there have been so many circulating for so long, I assume that they are true).

I find it so odd that he's still closeted. It's not like he ever traded on a heartthrob image. You didnt see Grease? I think most people who saw the movie at the time just chuckled a little under their breath. ONJ was the hot one and I always felt they thought Vinnie Barbarino Tried to look hot (when no one thought he was). Including ONJ

Saturday Night Disco Fever and Grease were huge, and he and his heartthrob status was part of that. They were record breakers at the time, and he was the lead in both. He was a HUGE deal in the late '70s. The entire club scene tried to emulate his SNDF look for years.
Personally, I think both movies are gross and horribly misogynistic. But they were massive movies and it's undeniable that he was a part of that.

Including ONJ I'm sorry, but I must post a very firm but polite "Please speak for yourself" in regards to this matter.

I don't get why Spacey's still in the closet either. Travolta, with the wife and kids and church, I understand what's at stake for him. But it seems like everyone already know about KS and he could just casually acknowledge it in an interview.

The general assumption is that it's because Spacey's sex life is very much not the sort of thing that would be palatable to the general public, regardless of being gay. He's not the kind of person who could do the PR-friendly "OK! magazine spread talking about how he loves to cook dinner with his boyfriend" form of coming out. Though it's a bit bizarre to be officially closeted when he's so extremely, aggressively out everywhere but the press. Maybe he just doesn't care to make a statement.

Sorry, I was referring to Mr. Spacey. Oh! I'm sorry, I thought you were talking about Travolta. Yeah, it's getting kind of dumb that the Spacey isn't out. Everyone knows. There are pics. Etc. The palatable thing is probably true. Apparently he's into young men; he's friends/parties with Bryan Singer, who is notorious for his young-guy sex parties (which sometimes includes underage guys, alledgedly, and casting-call sex).

Travolta was also sexy in Welcome Back Kotter. He was pretty hot then (although I had a crush on Horseshack myself.... )

I know, right? Literally almost every single person in London theatre has a 'Kevin Spacey being a perv' story. It's like almost an official rehearsal room bonding game, swapping Spacey Stories.
