SCIENTOLOGY IS WATCHING LEAH REMINI

It’s been well reported that Scientology can be ruthless in going after their perceived enemies and former member Leah Remini is currently in their line of fire. According to my source, the powers that be at Scientology are now trying to woo Leah’s estranged husband Angelo Pagan! Leah and Angelo recently announced they were divorcing and some Scientologists saw this as an opportunity to get Angelo on THEIR side. Angelo quit the group back in 2013 along with Leah, but now that he and Leah are kaput, the group wants to get dirt and ammunition FROM HIM in their ongoing quest to destroy Leah. My source says THAT is very unlikely, because Angelo was never fond of the organization, and only went along to please Leah.

LEAH REMINI’S BAD INVESTMENT

Leah Remini wants her money back! Through the years the former Scientologist has donated millions to the controversial organization, and now she’s hoping to get that money back. As we have been reporting, soon-to-be-single Leah recently sold her house in Studio City, California, and is looking to move into a gated community like Hidden Hills, California, where the Kardashians live. The homes she really likes are a tad out of her price range, so she’s exploring her legal options to get back the money she squandered on Scientology.

TOM CRUISE TAKES HIS SISTER FOR A RIDE

Tom Cruise and his lookalike sister Marion arrived in the UK by helicopter at the same time as his daughter Suri was getting acclimated to dorm life as a freshman and Carnegie Mellon University in Philadelphia. Marion, also a dedicated Scientologist, appears to lead a normal life as a successful realtor in Florida. We’re betting that she has many of the same Scientology celebrity “perks” that Tom has – since he is the “leader of the pack.”

WE TOLD YA SO!

Well we told ya so. Back in April we reported that Rebecca Minkoff was joining The Real Housewives of New York as a friend of the show and that she didn’t want to discuss her involvement in Scientology. We reported that although the producers asked the other cast members not to bring up the controversial cult, behind closed doors they expected the topic to be addressed once the drinking started. Well, our source was spot on, since although this season hasn’t even premiered yet, the trailer for the upcoming series shows a housewife bringing up Scientology. See link below. My source adds that producers are THRILLED and expect it to be a storyline for much of the season if not beyond.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Another whirlwind political week with the news that President Joe Biden was ending his campaign and all but anointed his successor, Vice President Kamala Harris. We are hearing that Hollywood was starting to abandon Joe after that scathing op-ed by George Clooney, but is now gearing up for the biggest star studded fundraiser EVER, to boost Kamala’s financial war chest. The details are still being sorted out, but according to my source it’s going to rival with Academy Awards with A-listers willing to contribute a minimum of $100,000 for an invite. We will share more details as we hear them.

Speaking of Joe Biden, now that he’s bowing out of the race and set to retire in January once his presidency is over, we just heard he’s planning a major change. Although Joe has called Delaware his home for most of his life, he wants to be closer to his California based son Hunter, so he’s already working with a top LA based realtor looking at suitable homes in the LA area. My source says that he wants to be on or near a beach and security is one of the concerns so he’s looking at gated waterfront properties from Orange County up through Santa Barbara.

Jennifer Aniston made headlines after she took to social media in a heartfelt post about women who can’t bear children after misogynistic comments from vice presidential candidate JD Vance recently resurfaced. Just heard from a well placed source that Jen, who usually stays away from the nastiness of politics, is now going all in for Kamala Harris and will soon appear alongside her at a political rally focusing on women’s reproductive rights.

Speaking of JD Vance, there are some rumblings that Donald Trump regrets listing to his son, Don Junior, who was pushing for Vance to be selected as the running mate. Our spot-on political source reports that there’s a plan being talked about to have Vance bow out of the campaign and claim a personal family matter is the reason. My source insists that Trump completely regrets choosing Vance, but if he decides not to replace him, you can expect to hear a lot less of JD on the campaign trial. As my source put it, Trump didn’t trust his instincts and was swayed by his son and now has serious second thoughts.

Enough politics -back to entertainment. Celine Dion made headlines for two things – performing at the Olympics and signing up for a residency at Resorts World in Las Vegas. What DIDN’T come out though, is what we just heard. She’s also recording a new album which will drop around the same time she kicks off her residency in Sin City.

And finally, as we exclusively reported, Leah Remini finally sold her Studio City, California home and we just heard she’s now looking for a new home in the LA Valley, but wants one in a guard gated community. Our source explains that Leah is still be hounded by her former pals in Scientology so that’s why she’s hypersensitive to make sure her new home has ample armed security guards.

LEAH REMINI WANTS NO REMINDERS OF SCIENTOLOGY

As we have been reporting, Leah Remini finally sold her Studio City, California estate for just under $10 million and she recently held a yard sale to unload some unwanted furniture and knickknacks from the estate. One thing Leah DIDN’T sell though was a reminder from her past as a Scientologist! Stuffed away in a spare closet was an E-meter, a Scientology contraption that supposedly acts as a lie detector test! Leah all but forgot she had the hunk of junk, and even though they sell online at sites like eBay for hundreds of dollars, thoughtful Leah didn’t want to sell anything that might promote Scientology. According to my source, she took a hammer to it, smashed it in pieces and tossed it right in the trash.

ARE SCIENTOLOGISTS MESSING WITH LEAH REMINI AGAIN?

We previously told you that Leah Remini was having a hard time unloading her Studio City home (which has been on the market for over a year) and that she SUSPECTS her former friends at Scientology are somehow involved. To refresh your memory, Leah keeps getting offers and entered escrow several times, but for one reason or another, the buyers backed out. Here’s an interesting update. Our well placed real estate source told me the home recently fell out of escrow yet AGAIN, so this time around Leah hired a private investigator to see if her hunch is correct. If she gets the proof that Scientology is behind these antics, my source says Leah will sue for damages. We’d like to see her WIN bigtime…

REBECCA MINKOFF HAS A SECRET

Before fashion designer Rebecca Minkoff agreed to join the upcoming season of Real Housewives of New York in the capacity as a friend, she had one demand – her involvement in Scientology is completely off limits unless SHE brings it up first. My Bravo source reveals that producers were eager to get Rebecca on the show so they agreed to the demand, but they have already told her if she brings it up then NOTHING is off-limits. Her RHONY cast mates have already been instructed not to mention Scientology, but once the drinking starts, who knows what will happen. The Housewives will no doubt have PLENTY to say on the subject- especially since a photo of Rebecca and convicted rapist (and fellow Scientologist) Danny Masterson, who is now in prison, popped up on Page Six!

HULK HOGAN: REAL-LIFE HERO OR SCIENTOLOGY HERO?

File this under things that make you go hmmm… We couldn’t help but be skeptical when we read that blast from the past, Hulk Hogan, was a real life hero when he spotted an overturned car in Clearwater,(!) Florida. (See link from TMZ below) Hulk recently married yoga instructor Sky Daily who is a second generation Scientologist. We aren’t SURE if Hulk has joined the controversial group, but it looks like it. Hulk and Tom Cruise were seen sharing a private box at a recent Tampa Bay Buccaneers game! We aren’t trying to take anything away from Hulk’s supposed good deed, we can’t help but think that something smells fishy. Scientology has allegedly been known to stage accidents and then have their members conveniently be there to save the day. Years ago it seemed like Tom Cruise was playing a real life hero on a regular basis. He got lots of publicity for rescuing people on a sinking boat, and also saving a woman injured in a car crash, and taking her to the hospital, where he paid her bill. We’ll let YOU decide!

CAN CHLOE FINEMAN BRING TOM CRUISE TO SNL?

We were recently SHOCKED to hear that the lovable and talented Chloe Fineman from SNL was born into a Scientology family! How devoted she is, we don’t know. But we DO know that SNL producers have for YEARS been trying to get Scientologist Tom Cruise to host or make a cameo appearance on the show and he has always turned them down. (Although two of his ex-wives HAVE hosted) Now the SNL top brass are urging Chloe to use her Scientology connection to persuade him to appear. Our inside source says Tom has avoided SNL because the show has poked fun at Scientology and HIM in the past. To her credit, Chloe has a sense of humor about it all, so she’s working to get Tom to bury the hatchet and make an appearance later this season.
