Kelly Kamalelehua Palzis Preston-Travolta (born October 13, 1962 in Honolulu, Hawaii) is an American actress. She is a 1980 graduate of the Punahou School.

Modeling

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. She currently appears in ads for Neutrogena.

Family

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, son Jett and daughter Ella Bleu.

Both Preston and Travolta are Scientologists, and Preston appeared in the film Battlefield Earth (produced by John Travolta, based on the novel by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard). Her role is sometimes incorrectly described as "starring" even though she only appears in one scene. She plays a Psychlo female encountered in a bar.

Recently, she has taken up the issue of overmedication and children. Preston has advocated 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. A federal law to that effect became law in July 2005, only schools receiving federal funding are subject to its terms.

She also devotes much of her time as a board member of the Children's Health Environmental Coalition (CHEC), a 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 syndrome, an illness that she suggests affects children and results in severe allergies and asthma attacks (but has not been found to be associated with Kawasaki's).

On April 10, 2006, Mark Ebner of Hollywood, Interrupted made a public plea to Travolta and Preston to have their son treated for autism, alleging five reliable sources—including representatives from Cure Autism Now and The Autism Perspective—who claim that Jett suffers from autism, and not from Kawasaki syndrome as stated by the parents. Her brother-in-law Joey Travolta recently produced a documentary about autism.

Trivia

* Her 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. She was married to Kevin Gage from 1986 to 1988.

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

* Was featured in the chart-topping Maroon 5 music video, "She Will Be Loved" in 2004. The video features a dangerous love triangle and some steamy romantic scenes between Preston and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine.

* Has spent time living in Iraq and Australia as a result of her father's position with an agricultural firm when she was a child. While living in Australia, she attended Pembroke School in Adelaide.

* Was a participant in a special celebrity edition of Fear Factor in 2001. She completed the final stunt, but ultimately lost to rapper Coolio. Her other competition included Brooke Burke, David Hasselhoff, Donny Osmond, and former WWE wrestler Joanie Laurer. Preston received $25,000 for her choice charity, which her husband John Travolta then matched.

* Is of English and Hawaiian descent.
