Photo

[edit]

Why is the main photo on this bio a picture of Ellen's brother, with Ellen practically hidden in the background? There HAS to be at least one headshot of Ellen that is more appropriate.24.187.134.112 (talk) 8:00, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Name

[edit]

My understanding from a high school friend who was John Travolta's roommate when he got his first break in New York is that Ellen Travolta isn't really his sister, but an actress named Ellen Rojas who was represented by the same agent who packaged them together as a brother sister duo.

first of all, it's doubtful that she is an unrelated actress called "ellen rojas." she has been using the name "ellen travolta" since at least nineteen sixty three, when JOHN travolta was little more than a child. second, ellen has been acting professionally since at least the early sixties. (she appeared in summer stock 1963.) her acting debut was NOT in a mid seventies episode of medical center. (it may have been her television debut, but not her professional acting debut.) apparently, ellen was the first "acting travolta" of the travolta family. she may not have made the impact that her brother did, but she got their FIRST. (and i doubt that she ever worked with john as part of a "brother and sister duo." at least not in the early years.........) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.233.206.70 (talk) 01:13, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
