John Travolta: "I should have just gone all the way" with MTV VMAs Taylor Swift near-mistake

Entertainment Weekly

Travolta discussed nearly presenting Swift's award to RuPaul's Drag Race star Jade Jolie, telling Dallas-Fort Worth area’s Hot 93.3: “There’s so many people that bombarded the stage, that I was looking for (Swift). So the video has me trying to find her, and you know, I thought it was so funny the way it was interpreted. And it’s cool, I didn’t care. If I shave my head, it’s headlines. If I mispronounce something, that’s headlines, and I know that about me.” Travolta added: “Sometimes I fantasize, what if I had given it to (Jolie)? That would have been awesome. I should have just gone all the way with it. I have a sense of humor about all of that — I always have — because, look, we’re in pretty good shape on any given day that that kind of thing could make headlines.”
