Tire Business
So if his mother and sister pursued a career in arts, what about his father? Glad you asked. Salvatore Travolta was a former quarterback for a semi-pro football team. After retiring, he opened a tire shop called The Travolta Tire Exchange. He proudly watched his family pursue their own dreams. Sadly, he died in 1995.
Music Debut
As we said, it wasn’t just acting that Travolta pursued. In fact, at only 22 years old, he came out with his debut album called John Travolta. His single off the album called “Let Her In” instantly became a sensation. Indeed, it even reached 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, where it stayed for five months. Not to mention, the album made the top 20.
