John Travolta revealed for the first time Wednesday that his son Jett was autistic.

The revelation came during dramatic testimony in a extortion trial that detailed his son's final moments. Travolta was testifying at Nassau Supreme Court against two men who are charged with trying to extort $25 million from the actor.

The defendants -- an ambulance driver and a former Bahamas senator — allegedly demanded the cash and threatened to reveal details about Jett's death.

Travolta testified that he had desperately tried to save his 16-year-old son's life, performing mouth-to-mouth resuscitation while a nanny performed CPR.

Travolta described how he and his wife Kelly Preston were awakened by the nanny at 10:15 a.m. on Jan. 2 after Jett collapsed in a bathroom.

"I ran downstairs with my wife to help my son," Travolta told the jury.

Travolta said Jett was autistic and suffered seizures every five to 10 days. "He was autistic. He suffered from a seizure disorder." Jett would typically sleep for 12 hours after a seizure, the actor said.

John Travolta's faith in Scientology remains firm.

A July 25 report in Britain's Daily Mail newspaper claiming that Travolta had grown disenchanted with his longtime religion in the wake of his son Jett's death in January is "totally false," his rep Paul Bloch tells PEOPLE.

"There's no change in the relationship between the Church of Scientology and John," says Bloch. "He is a member and it's as it was, now and forever."

Jett Travolta's body showed no sign of head trauma despite a police statement that he hit his head on a bathtub, and the death certificate says he was killed by a seizure, an undertaker said Monday.

The 16-year-old son of actors John Travolta and Kelly Preston had a history of seizures and was found unconscious in a bathroom Friday at a family vacation home on Grand Bahama Island.

Authorities didn't release the results of an autopsy performed Monday, but Glen Campbell, assistant director of the Bahamian funeral home handling the remains, saw the body and the death certificate based on the autopsy findings.

"The only cause of death that was listed was 'seizure,' " he said.

Above is John Travolta on the set of his new movie, From Paris with Love. The film, co-written by Luc Besson and Adi Hasak, stars Travolta as an American spy, while Jonathan Rhys Meyers co-stars as an embassy employee.

Travolta doesn't look too bad with a bald noggin, and now I've got visions of the actor teaming up with Bruce Willis for a baldie buddy cop film.

The buzz - John Travolta in Musical Hairspray as a woman! Who better to pull off such a role, but Travolta! He has two hit musical movies under his belt already: Saturday Night Fever and Grease.

"John Travolta is our generation's greatest musical star," says Hairspray producer Neil Meron. "With those two movies, he became an icon of movie musicals. And there aren't many left." Reported USA Today.

Filmmakers for Hairspray needed the right man who could pull off acting, singing and being the perfect woman. Director Adam Shankman, knew Travolta could definitely pull off drag; he plays Edna Turnblad, whose daughter Tracy (new Nikki Blonsky) confronts racism in '60s Baltimore. Travolta inherits the role from Divine in the original 1988 film and Harvey Fierstein in the Broadway show.

South Park aired a hilarious episode this fall about Mr Cruise refusing to come out of the closet. His fellow Scientoligist buddy, John Travolta, tries to convince him but ends up joining him. R Kelly appears and adds another chapter to his soap opera song and overall it’s a great laugh.

This episode has caused quite a commotion. Tom actually sued over the episode and it will not be aired in the UK. You can click here to watch the clip from the show....Click here
