LEAH REMINI : COULD BECOME A TAXPAYER’S HERO!

We love Leah Remini for creating her anti-Scientology series to expose the so-called “church” for what it really is. She is ending the series with coverage of the Danny Masterson rape accusations and how the church threatened the accusers. We were especially happy when Leah stated that her goal is to have the IRS reconsider the church of Scientology’s exemption from paying taxes – including property taxes – (they own half of Hollywood and much more.) Also whatever church members claim they spend on “training” is apparently not taxable! Leah Remini has an admirable and long overdue goal!

SUSPICIOUS MINDS WANT TO KNOW: WILL LISA MARIE PRESLEY TELL ALL?

We can’t stop thinking about Lisa Marie Presley’s new book – she’s writing her autobiography (“to set the record straight”) which will cover her childhood with her father Elvis, as well as her four marriages. She was married to Michael Jackson for two years, Nicolas Cage after that, as well as two Scientologists. She obviously has some hot scoop to spill about Elvis and Michael Jackson, because the publisher gave her over three million dollars up front. Timing couldn’t be better after the Finding Neverland documentary. Lisa has insisted she and Michael had a “normal” sex life, but she did allude to his drug abuse and flakey “entourage.” Lisa has always seemed rather spoiled and ill-tempered, but we were impressed when she left Scientology in 2016. Will she have the courage to criticize the cult? Sadly, her daughter, actress Riley Keough, above, is still a Scientologist.

KIRSTIE ALLEY DITCHES JENNY CRAIG FOR A CAFTAN

For now it appears that Kirstie Alley has thrown in the towel when it comes to dieting. She just finished a turn on Celebrity Big Brother UK and as usual she was highly opinionated and entertaining on the show, but refused to talk about Scientology and ESPECIALLY Tom Cruise. We were surprised when Kirstie ended her friendship with Maksim Chmerkovskiy, her partner on Dancing with the Stars, because HE was friendly with Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer is a close friend of FORMER Scientologist and declared enemy of the church, Leah Remini. That’s quite a grudge. Maybe Kirstie and Jenny Craig are on the outs too.

EVEN SCIENTOLOGISTS COULDN’T SAVE JOHN TRAVOLTA’S GOTTI MOVIE

But oh, how they TRIED! It took YEARS and many changes for John Travolta to finally get his Gotti movie finished and he hoped it was his role of a lifetime. But it turned out to be a disaster – critics lambasted everything about the film (including Travolta’s “gallery of wigs”) and Rotten Tomatoes gave it a rare score of ZERO %! Scientologists remember the embarrassing failure of Battlefield Earth, the film they produced starring Travolta, and they vowed to do whatever they could to save Gotti. They advertised the movie with a Scientology inspired philosophy “Audiences love Gotti, but critics don’t want you to see it – judge for yourself.” Suddenly, numerous positive reviews appeared online praising Gotti – suspiciously written by people with new email accounts who had never written reviews before. It didn’t help – once again, crime didn’t pay.

AS IF TOM CRUISE DIDN’T HATE LEAH REMINI ENOUGH

We have no plans to see it, but the fact that Tom Cruise’s latest Mission Impossible epic is a huge success will no doubt bolster public interest in Scientology and boost ratings for Leah Remini’s A&E series Scientology and the Aftermath. Coincidentally or not, we hear that Leah plans to focus on Cruise for the third season of the series. (The church started up its own TV network in March, which has been described as an “extended church infomercial” pointing out the church’s generosity and good deeds.) Because of the Tom Cruise scrutiny, our hero Remini admits she expects the church’s harassment of her will increase accordingly and she’s taking appropriate security measures.

WHO’S MOST THRILLED BY JUSTIN BIEBER’S ENGAGEMENT? HILLSONG CHURCH, THAT’S WHO!

Both Justin Bieber, 25, and Hailey Baldwin, 21, credit “divine intervention” for bringing them together, which translates to: Hillsong Church. Both are members and this windfall for the megachurch can be compared to Tom Cruise’s Scientology marriage to Katie Holmes. Both Scientology and Hillsong actively recruit the young and famous to attract millenials. Plus, Hillsong churchgoers wear t -shirts and jeans and services are often held in large music venues with pop music. The 10% tithe from celebrities is nothing to scoff at. Hillsong Church is very wealthy, but lacks transparency – they don’t reveal pastors’ salaries and are criticized for opposing gay marriage, abortion, and birth control. Nevertheless, we imagine Justin and Hailey will be filling up those church venues to the max.

WILL SURI CRUISE EVER SEE HER FATHER AGAIN?

Katie Holmes is giving her daughter Suri a taste of culture in Paris – they spent the afternoon at the Louvre looking at art. Later Katie and Suri went to the Fendi couture show. We can’t help but mention that Tom Cruise is not that far away in London. Will there be a secret meeting with Suri? It HAS to be a secret because Tom lives at Scientology headquarters in London like the one John Travolta lives at in Florida. Six years ago Tom sued In Touch magazine for reporting that he had abandoned his daughter, but in his deposition he admitted he hadn’t seen her in 110 days and ended up dropping the suit.

EAT YOUR HEART OUT, TOM CRUISE!

Suri Cruise is 12 now and she’s growing up to be a cute and happy pre-teen. As far as anyone knows, (and there are plenty of watchers) Tom Cruise has not seen Suri since she was seven years old because Scientology wants him to “disconnect.” Recently Star magazine claimed that Tom is planning a reunion, which might or might not happen – we doubt that they have any inside information. Tabloids are free to write anything they want about celebrities as long as it isn’t litigious or career damaging. Since Tom has obviously chosen Scientology over his own daughter, a reunion might not be such a good thing, anyway.

LEAH REMINI HAS MORE INVESTIGATING UP HER SLEEVE

While we’re on the subject of Scientology, we’re not sure how long Leah Remini’s Emmy-winning series, Scientology and the Aftermath, will continue (hopefully a LONG time) but she already has her eye on another religion she wants to scrutinize. The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Leah will produce a special for A&E focusing on Jehovah’s Witnesses. Remini aims to put an end to abuse in religions. She wants people to “have a negative feeling about church abuse and people taking away their money and families.” The special will air after season 3 of Aftermath, which, by the way, is expected to really agitate the Scientologists.

BEN FOSTER AND LAURA PREPON: SCIENTOLOGISTS ARE MULTIPLYING

It looks like accused three-time rapist Danny Masterson has masterminded another Scientology coupling. TMZ reported that Hell or High Water star Ben Foster, 37, and Orange is the New Black star Laura Prepon, 38, applied for a marriage license at City Hall. (They already have a child together.) Masterson and Laura costarred on That 70’s Show and Ben Foster has been his best friend for years. You KNOW how Scientologists must marry within the “church” or bad things happen. Ben is an undercover Scientologist while Laura is OUT. It all makes you WONDER if Danny’s other close friends (and 70’s Show costars) Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are undercover Scientologists too!
