K
Kelly Preston (born Kelly Kamalelehua Palzis on
October 13, 1962) in Honolulu, Hawaii) is an
United States|American actress. 

Preston had a modeling career when she was a
teenager. At 16, she was discovered by a fashion
photographer who helped her get acting work in
commercials and other small parts, which
eventually developed into a successful movie
career. 

Preston has been married to John Travolta since
1991. Preston put her career on hold after the
wedding, opting to be a wife and mother when
Travolta's career took off again in the 1990s. The
couple have two children, a son and a daughter.
She doesn't use the name Travolta professionally.

Both Preston and Travolta are Scientologists, and
starred together in the Scientologist picture
Battlefield Earth (produced by Travolta).  

Recently, she has taken up the issue of
overmedication and children. In keeping with
Scientology precepts, Preston believes that
schools are forcing or pressuring students and
their families to medicate them for ADD
unnecessarily. She has testified before the
Florida state legislature encouraging the passage
of a bill to ban such practice. While there is
already a federal law to that effect, only schools
receiving federal funding are subject to its
terms. 

She also devotes much of her time to the
Children's Health Environmental Coalition (CHEC)
(of which she is a board member), a national
non-profit organization dedicated to educating
parents about environmental toxins and potential
health hazards for children with illnesses. She
joined after their son Jett was diagnosed with
Kawasaki's Syndrome, an illness that mostly
affects children and results in severe allergies
and asthma attacks.

==Trivia==
Preston's former boyfriends include George Clooney
and Charlie Sheen. After living with Sheen for one
year (and receiving a very large diamond ring from
him), Preston ended the relationship in 1990
shortly after an incident in which Sheen
accidentally shot her in the arm.

John Travolta married Kelly Preston twice. Their
first wedding (September 5, 1991) was performed by
a French scientologist minister, but was later
declared illegal. They married again within the
month.

In 2004, Kelly Preston was featured in the
chart-topping Maroon 5 video, "She Will Be Loved"
-- featuring a dangerous love triangle and some
steamy romantic scenes between Preston and Maroon
5 frontman Adam Levine.
