It was an emotional evening for the attendees at the GDay USA: Australia Week 2008 event at Lincoln Center last night in light of fellow Aussie Heath Ledgers passing. While many were simply at a loss for words, John Travolta, who knew Heath, offered a touching tribute to the fallen star.
“I would give back all my awards to have him back. This whole evening has been really hard for me. This is a bad situation,” John told PageSix.com. When asked if there were any signs that Heath was troubled, John said, “As far as I know, he was on top of the world. This craft can make life harsher on you.”
