The first masseur that wants to sue John Travolta for sexual battery is now admitting that he got a detail wrong in the story. Click below to find out the information that he got wrong.
The masseur suing John Travolta for sexual battery in a Beverly Hills hotel is admitting a major kink in his story – that the date he claimed the actor groped his crotch is wrong.
The anonymous masseur now says he screwed up the timeframe and that the alleged incident happened prior to the Jan. 16 date stated in his federal lawsuit, RadarOnline reported.
“It was a miscalculation,†a source close to the case told Radar.
The major misstep comes shortly after the “Pulp Fiction†star’s lawyer trashed the tale of a Caribbean cruise ship worker who claims the actor offered him cash to rock his boat behind closed cabin doors.
Fabian Zanzi — the first of three alleged victims to offer his name — said the actor accosted him in 2009 while he was working on a Royal Caribbean ship.
Zanzi told Chilean media that the actor offered him a cool $12,000 for sex, according to South American news website ABC.es.
“This individual is simply hopping on the bandwagon to get his 15 minutes of fame by coming up with a story for the first time with something that supposedly happened over three years ago,†Singer told the Daily News.
“Nobody has ever heard from this guy before. No lawyer has contacted us,” he added.
Zanzi, who is Chilean, reportedly was working on the liner as a director of VIP guests. Zanzi said he refused the actor’s advances.
“He said he had something on his neck,†ABC.es quoted Zanzi as saying. “I thought it was a fuzz. As I approached, he took off his white coat and was naked.â€
“He hugged me and asked me to do a massage,†Zanzi said.
The masseur claiming Travolta made unwanted sexual advances in California last January filed his lawsuit in federal court May 4. A second anonymous masseur claiming he was groped by the actor during a massage at an Atlanta resort Jan. 28 joined the legal action this week.
Both are represented by lawyer Okorie Okorocha.
Singer blasted the U.S. claims as “ridiculous,†saying: “It’s enough that anyone in America can sue anybody but even worse when someone thinks they can do it anonymously.”
He insisted he doesn’t know who the two John Does are, adding: “I have ESPN, but I don’t have ESP.”
The first masseur’s admission he got his date wrong followed after a pair of independent voices bolstered Travolta’s contention he was in New York on Jan. 16.
The Daily News learned Travolta’s luxury Gulfstream jet landed in Westchester County early that morning.
“It touched down here at 3:53 a.m.,†John Inserra, the noise abatement officer at the Westchester County Airport, said.
