John Travolta just described to the jury in the extortion trial how he desperately tried to save his son's life.
Travolta testified his nanny woke him up at around 10:15 AM on January 2 and told him his son was unconscious in the bathroom. Travolta says when he went downstairs, he saw Jett on the ground and one of the caretakers was doing chest compressions.
Travolta says he performed CPR on Jett, ultimately to no avail.
Kelly Preston was in the courtroom as John testified.
More updates as the testimony unfolds.
UPDATE: John and Kelly just walked out of the courthouse and got into an SUV. We're told the court is taking a lunch break. Travolta is expected to return later this afternoon.

The National Transportation Safety Board has issued a preliminary report on the jet crash in which DJ AM and Travis Barker survived. Four others were killed.

According to the report, the roll down the runway was normal at first, but sparks began flying (presumably after several tires blew out) and at 136 knots "the crew attempted to reject the takeoff, however they were unable to stop the airplane ..." The report goes on -- "... the left and right main gear tire rims scarred the runway surface."
In short, it looks like a blown tire triggered the emergency and the crew couldn't stop the plane. Some experts believe the pilot should have attempted to take off rather than abort, and that's the basis of lawsuit filed by DJ and Travis.

This Vegas scene this weekend was all kinds of wild; Eva Longoria partied it up at Pure nightclub at Ceasars, while Ne-Yo gave impromptu performances at Tryst at the Wynn, and Lil' Jon lived it up with a little help from a friend named Patron at JET nightclub at the Mirage. We also hear that Fed-ex's ex Shar Jackson and the former Mr. J.Lo Cris Judd partied it up at Blush in the Wynn- both requesting not Britney or Jennifer Lopez songs- of course.
Thanks to our friends at SpyOnVegas.com for several of the pics. Enjoy!
