JOHN Travolta has an unlikely pal in 50 Cent – but the pair are so close that the actor stormed the stage during the rapper’s performance.
The Candy Shop hitmaker was in the middle of his performance when John, 64, joined him onstage and started showing off his best dad dancing.
Fiddy was singing his hit Just A Lil Bit when John decided to join him and pop a few moves.
It was a far cry from his Saturday Night Fever smoothness in the Seventies.
But he appeared not to be embarrassed at all as he grooved along to the music.
And the crowd obviously approved.
The Hollywood actor, 64, was celebrated by the Cannes Film Festival at a party honouring his three-decade career and his new gangster flick Gotti, where he plays New York gangster John Gotti.
Travolta’s hip hop favourite 50 Cent was called in by the star last minute to perform at the exclusive Eden Rock at Hotel Du Cap.
The rapper told the audience it didn’t feel like a work gig because he was performing to one of his idols.
Travolta attended his party with his wife Kelly Preston, their son Benjamin and Travolta’s older sister Iris.
An onlooker said: “John was having the time of his life. He was whooping and dancing. He stayed up partying until 1am.

“Pitbull was meant to perform but he pulled out and 50 Cent was more than happy to perform.
“He admires John and it’s vice versa for both of them. There is a lot of mutual appreciation.”
Throughout the night the likes of Olivia Newton John, Robert De Niro and Forrest Whittaker gave recorded tributes to the star.
