A song for mom!
Ella Bleu Travolta, 24, dedicated her new single “Little Bird” to her late mother, Kelly Preston.
Kelly Preston died in 2020.
Ella, the second child of Kelly and John Travolta, 70, released the song on Friday, September 6 — four years after the actress died of b------ cancer.
“Little bird, don’t cry/ Would you stay a while before I fly?” Ella sings. “Close your eyes, won’t you smile? / Sing a lullaby, it’ll be alright.”
Ella is close with her father, John Travolta.
On Wednesday, September 4, Ella wrote on Instagram, “‘Little bird’s a song about a beautiful time in my life.”
"I spent the last two years thinking about what I wanted this song to be, only for it to be written overnight. The song is about the celebration of life," she continued.
Ella’s childhood is on full display in the video, which also features her parents, younger brother, Benjamin, 13, and her late brother, Jett.

“Everyone wants him to be happy and fall in love again,” said an insider. “Ella and Benjamin want him to start dating, but John is always making excuses. He says they have to come first.”
