John Travolta, an ardent supporter of Scientology, has shocked fans at a fundraiser ball in West Sussex by getting up on stage with wife Kelly Preston to dance.
The actor is known as private, and his appearance on stage during the finale was not expected. He received a standing ovation when he appeared in the marquee.
Organisers said that he had flown in especially for the gala occasion, at which cheques were presented to many different UK charities, including the Royal Commonwealth Society and Age Concern.
Travolta also presented at the ceremony alongside concert host and actress Anne Archer, giving a £40,000 cheque to Harry Lee, who is the Sheriff of New Orleans.
