John Travolta's Irish Heart...

He may be the star of such classic movies as Grease, Saturday Night Fever and Pulp Fiction but John Travolta puts down much of his acting ability to being Irish!

It seems everyone famous and their brother is either looking for property in Ireland or claiming to be Irish - if you believe everything you read in the newspapers.

But John Travolta has more of a claim than others being half Irish on his mother Helen's side and growing up in a predominantly Irish neighbourhood in New Jersey. His mother was also a drama coach.

Although the Italian side of his lineage is what he is most recognised for, Travolta himself sees it differently.

He told Plus Magazine recently, "The emotional, romantic, whimsical part of me is Irish. Spiritually, I probably feel more like an Irishman - that's where my heart is."

He went on, "The feelings I have for food and dance is probably the Italian side of me. I have the sexuality of an Italian but I think the Irish are very sexy too. I grew up in an all-Irish neighbourhood and it was as sexual as anything."
