Did Tom Cruise try to recruit Scarlett Johansson to Scientology?
The “Lost in Translation” star was expected to co-star with Cruise in “Mission: Impossible III” but was dropped because of “scheduling conflicts.” But it seems that there may have been other conflicts as well. Cruise invited Johansson to a Scientology center where he showed her literature about joining his controversial church, according to a report. “After two hours of proselytizing,” according to RadarMagazine.com, “Cruise opened a door to reveal a second room full of upper-level Scientologists who had been waiting to dine with the pair, at which point the cool-headed ingénue politely excused herself.”
The Scoop called Johansson’s mother/manager for comment and she declined, referring us to Johansson’s publicist, who didn’t return calls or emails. Cruise’s rep didn’t respond to requests for comment, but Rick Ross of CultNews.com told the Scoop: “Is this Tom Cruise’s version of a first date? It’s becoming increasingly difficult to make distinctions between his personal, professional and religious life. Tom Cruise and Scientology seem intent on recruiting a hot young star. Apparently, Scarlett Johansson flunked her test, but Katie Holmes passed.”
Nah..she was binge drinking on kaballah water..
O'Reilly actually said that? People don't have a clue what Scientology is unless they've read the book or heard about it on the net. He backed off. That's unusual for Bill. Wonder what's up.
Can't find the Cathy Seipp piece--do you have a link or can you give more specific directions?
CREEPY!!!!!!!!
2)Greta Van Susteren is a Scientologist.
NRO.com..it's at the top of the page..
Not buying #1 but #2 makes sense.
Good Gracious! You're right. Obviously, the Scientologists and the Mormons are in on this together. Watch for Tom Cruise to appear in an Osmond hairdo.
I think the little ancient aliens inside him told him to
Matthew McConaughey (wacky but rugged)....Sean Connery (older but still "manly")....Tom Selleck (conservative & "manly"). FeliciaCat, I never did "get" the Tom Cruise popularity factor either....seems totally manufactured and contrived....similar to Rock Hudson...Tab Hunter..et.al. Thanks for an "entertaining" thread...even though I think that Scientology is a serious money laundering cult that should be placed under the microscope....similar to the scrutiny given to the Mafia back in the 70's and 80's.
How long does a sex change operation take?
LOL!
Hey, Fierce,
If you pay me 5 millin dollars - I'll promise not to have sex with you for 5 years. Maybe even six...
;^)
There are probably lots of powerful people who are Sci's...maybe that why they can continue to operate.
That is my general thought, as well...they are probably layered from the bottom to the top of the entertainment industry. And there are probably those who are involved; that get the most lucrative deals and contracts based on their Scientology.
