Scientology in Hollywood

Despite being a very small religion, the Church of Scientology has a disproportionate amount of celebrity members. Back in 2005, celebrity Scientologists were constantly promoting the church, literally jumping on couches and having viral blowout fights, all in the name of Scientology. But by 2006, something had changed and celebrity scientologists suddenly went quiet. Over the last 20 years, more and more celebrity scientologists stopped promoting their involvement with the religion. And today, many refuse to discuss their membership at all. This has led to the general public being unaware of just how many famous Scientologists are scattered throughout Hollywood. And while many celebrities outright deny being members, there are even more that downplay their involvement despite being incredibly dedicated and loyal members. And on top of the many hidden celebrity scientologists and the secret ones, there are also even more Hollywood stars entangled with the church despite not being members. So that's what we're going to be talking about today. the many celebrity scientologists. We'll be talking a little about the ones you do know and a lot about the ones you don't. We'll also be exposing many behind-the-scenes stories about these celebrity members that have never been discussed publicly before, disclosed by onset sources, and unearthed by longforgotten social media posts. We'll also be discussing the members given permission to downplay their involvement with the church, why Scientology pivoted its celebrity plans in the mid 2000s, and the many Hollywood stars the church allegedly poured millions of dollars into recruiting. So, sit back, relax, grab a drink and a snack, and let's dive in to the twisted, hidden, and secret world of celebrity scientologists. the ones you know and the ones you don't. In 1953, Elron Hubard founded the Church of Scientology. Hubard was a science fiction writer who was quoted as saying, "If you want to get rich, you start a religion." He holds the record for the most published works by one author at 1,084 pieces of original work. But of course today he is much better known as the founder and leader of Scientology. Scientology is extremely controversial with the general public and you don't need me to tell you that. But up until 2005, most people didn't really know much about the religion. They knew a lot of celebrities were in it pretty much. But in 2005, there was a lot of information that came out about Scientology, none of which was good. But interestingly, this information came from two very unlikely places. The first was a Today Show interview with Tom Cruz. And Today Show interviews are usually very light and fluffy PR, so celebrities can usually relax when they're being interviewed on the Today Show. and they know they're not going to get very hard-hitting questions. But in this interview between Tom Cruz and Matt Lowour, it actually went into a huge argument and people very much saw a different side to Tom Cruz and he talked a lot about Scientology and Scientologists sort of hatred for medication psychiatrists and getting treatment for any sort of mental health disorders that people might have. He attacked Brooke Shields over her postpartum depression and this interview did a lot of damage to the public's opinion of both Scientology and Tom Cruz. The second way in 2005 that people found out a lot of information about Scientology was even more unusual than a Today Show interview, and that was an episode of South Park. The South Park creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, really, really get a lot of credit as being the first people to put out mainstream information about Scientology, about its principles, its beliefs, and what its members spend millions of dollars and thousands of hours a year working towards. South Park really was the first place that most people were able to get a foundational understanding of what Scientologists believe. And these beliefs are, in my personal opinion, quite funny. But what's quite wild about it is that when this South Park episode came out, viewers when they watched it knew more about Scientology's belief than Scientologists who had spent a lot of money and time trying to move up in the church. Because Scientology operates kind of like a secret membership club where you are only given certain information as you move up the ladder. And they call these levels operating fat and levels and there's eight of them. So you have to spend a lot of money and a lot of time studying to move up the levels. So those people that spend their whole lives in Scientology and never get to the level where they learn about the aliens. Leah Remeny has spoken about the millions of dollars that she gave to the church and she also has talked in detail about the day she reached the level where she could be given the sacred Scientology information. And when Leah Remany was allowed to get this information, special allowances were made for her because she was a highranking celebrity. And that's one thing you'll hear a lot in this video, that Scientology celebrities are treated very differently. They are seen as the absolute top of the top in Scientology. And there's a lot of things that are done very differently to not only appease them, but treat them as even higher than a celebrity. Like rolling out the red carpet doesn't even begin to cover how these people are treated in the church. In a nutshell, Scientologists believe that we are all fatans. these immortal spiritual beings that are considered to be the true essence of an individual. They believe that each person is essentially one of these Satans. And there's a whole thing about volcanoes and these Satans being aliens that came 10,000 years ago. And these Satans are living within us and have been through all our past lives. And they also continue to exist beyond us after we die. And essentially these things accumulate traumatic memories over all of these lifetimes. And that the whole idea of Scientology is that you try and clear yourself through auditing. And most people have probably seen the auditing e-meter. It's a type of counseling and they use this device called an E-meter where it has a little dial on it and you hold on to what looks like two tin cans and it's supposed to be able to read something that you hold on to this and just spill all your deepest darkest secrets, all your bad thoughts, everything that you can think of. And they also record these sessions. So they become basically pretty perfect blackmail material and to know all the things that you wouldn't really want anyone knowing. And that's why it is so difficult for people like celebrities to get out of Scientology because the church ends up having a lot of dirt on them. Over the years, while Hubard was forming and leading Scientology, he constantly changed things. Some would even say he was making things up as he went along. And he certainly had a set of rules for himself, celebrities, and highranking members, and then another set of rules for everyone else. Hubard always saw celebrities as a way to bring people into the church. And in 1955, just 2 years after he started Scientology, he launched Project Celebrity, which is very much alive and well in Scientology today. And Tom Cruz is the person at the heart of this project celebrity. And that's not because he is the biggest celebrity in the church, but because he is the one attempting to recruit other celebrities to Scientology and also holding meetings with current celebrity scientologists and chastising them for not bringing in more celebrities and celebrities with bigger name recognition. Celebrities serve as spokespeople, helping Scientology to appear more credible and appealing. But one of the biggest things Scientology offers people who either want to get into Hollywood or who want to become a bigger name is connections. And I would definitely say there are a lot of people in Hollywood, not just actors, but writers and directors that at one point did think about joining Scientology purely for the connections, the acting classes, anything like that or even just being around other celebrities because a lot of the time that is something that you really can't buy. But Scientology kind of flaunts itself as this great way to get connections in the industry. And it obviously doesn't really happen anymore because people are quite savvy about Scientology now. But I know a lot of people I I even just spoke to someone the other day who prior to 2005 said there was even a moment I thought about joining just because of the connections. But obviously after the mid-200s, people started learning a lot more about what it was because it wasn't just, oh, this quirky celebrity religion anymore. There was serious serious issues going on and horrendous things coming out in the 2000s and 2010s. We really started to learn about these horrible things going on behind the scenes. Scientology has always tried to recruit many young actors before they are known. People like John Travolta and Kirsty Ally. Scientology, as I said, has many connections in Hollywood. So, they can help these people with their careers. They put on these acting classes and get a lot of people signed up that way before they have their big break. And that's also why there are a high percentage of successful actors that were raised in Scientology and whose whole family is in Scientology because they are always trying to make the perfect Scientology celebrity. So from very young ages, these Scientologists and Scientology families get access to connections to acting classes to certain Scientology schools that specialize in art programs. And it's why out of a very small religion, you have people like Elizabeth Moss, Juliet Lewis, Giovani Ravvesi, and Danny and Chris Masterson. And all of those people that I just mentioned were all born into Scientology or their families joined when they were very young. And their entire family are Scientologists still. If you've watched my channel before, you probably know that I've spoken a lot about Danny Mastersonson and That7s Show cast. And I think that this is an important topic that isn't covered too much. And there also is going to be even more stuff coming out because in September of this year, there's going to be the civil lawsuit with Scientology, Danny Masterson, and Danny Masterson's victims. And I will do a video on that closer to the time. But a big factor that I wanted to do this video today is Danny Mastersonson's brother, Chris Masterson, who slides under the radar a lot, but has a lot of allegations surrounding him, too. He is allegedly involved with Brian Singer and a lot of that crowd of people. And as we speak, there is a revival of Malcolm in the Middle going into production. So, Chris Masterson is going to be getting an enormous amount of attention soon. I've always heard that Brian Cranston made sure that there wasn't any Scientology recruiting on the set, but there's even going to be a lot of the public watching this show who probably haven't stayed up to date with what's going on, or even younger people who don't know he's a Scientologist, don't know about the horrendous situation with his brother and Chris's alleged involvement with people like Brian Singer. I will touch on the whole Masterson family a little bit later as the other siblings also have entanglements with a lot of very famous people like Hillary Duff for example. So that family we'll discuss in a little bit. We'll discuss the 70s show cast a little bit too as there's some information that I haven't previously covered and a lovely subscriber reached out to me with some tidbits of information as one of her close friends who's also a celebrity used to date to Grace whenever he was on that 70 show. So there was some bits of information I hadn't heard before. But we are also going to cover people like Juliet Lewis who, as I mentioned, I think it was in my last video that I'm working on a video similar to my WB one that's going to be about a bunch of Showtime shows. And I had another lovely subscriber reach out who worked on a bunch of Showtime shows. So, we're going to cover a lot of information in Yellow Jacket, Shameless, Dexter, The L Word, that hasn't been discussed publicly, but we will go over a little bit of some Yellow Jacket stuff in this video whenever we talk about Juliet Lewis. But I first want to talk about someone who is getting a lot of attention right now because of the final season of their show. And that is Elizabeth Moss, who whenever people hear that she is a Scientologist, it really stops them in their tracks because of the nature of the show that she's on right now and the character that she plays. Elizabeth Moss is currently an active Scientologist and she was raised in the church, too. and both her parents are Scientologists as well. She worked steadily throughout Hollywood in her teens and 20s and then she got her big break when she was cast as Peggy Olen on the show Madmen. Elizabeth Moss's character was seen as quite the feminist icon on the show. Whenever Madmen started, she was a secretary and the show is set in the very misogynistic 1960s. She works in an ad agency as a secretary and then by the end of the show, spoiler alert, she has become a copy editor. So, it was quite the feat for the character to rise up the ranks that way. This role sparked a lot of discussion about Moss's involvement with Scientology. Some people were thinking, "Oh, she's taking on this role and she took on a lot of other roles that seemed very different from Scientology." and people started thinking maybe she's not in the church anymore or maybe she's a casual member, which by the end of this video you'll see there's not really such a thing as a casual Scientologist, but many celebrity Scientologists try and portray themselves as a casual member to the press and oh, I just do some classes or it just helps me with this one thing because that makes it much more palatable to the public. People don't want to think that someone they're supporting and watching on TV is doing these horrendous things or involved with an organization that is doing horrendous things. So, it is now much more likely that Scientologists either don't talk about it or they distance themselves. Whereas, as I was saying in the beginning, in the early 2000s and the '9s, they were all literally jumping on couches screaming about it. While she was on Madmen, Elizabeth Moss never really addressed being a Scientologist, but in 2022, The New Yorker did a profile on her where she very much did say she remained a committed Scientologist. Her next big role did put an even bigger spotlight on her and her Scientology ties because of the themes of this show, too, and the character she was portraying. In 2016, Elizabeth Moss was cast in The Handmaid's Tale, and the show premiered the following year in 2017. The Handmaid's Tale is currently airing its sixth and final season, and the show is a dystopian drama based on the 1985 novel by Margaret Atwood. The show's set in the near future and the story takes place in Gilead, which is basically a new country when the US has been taken over by totalitarian theocracy. This is a group of men that are called the Sons of Jacobs and they overthrow the US government. In the show's universe, there's widespread infertility, and Gilead has enforced extremely misogynistic and backwards roles where women are only allowed to serve men. It's illegal for them to have a job, have a bank account, or even read or write. The new regime forces the few remaining fertile women, called handmaids, into reproductive servitude for the ruling elite. Usually these handmmaids will go and live with a high-ranking commander and his wife. And the goal is for the commander to get the handmmaid pregnant through this ritual. And they just keep having a handmmaid even after they've got pregnant. It's just like have as many children as possible. And they move the handmaids around too because even if the handmmaid doesn't get pregnant, it's never anything to do with the man. It's the handmaid's fault. Of course. Elizabeth Moss plays the lead character, a handmmaid named June Osborne. I feel like I've said handmaidad 10 times. She gets renamed Offred in Gilead as they all take the man's name with Off in the front. And after hearing the synopsis, or if you're familiar with the show, you can probably see why this sparked a lot of discussion about Elizabeth Moss being in the show and also being a highranking celebrity member of Scientology. Because just like with Mad Men, there were some people that were thinking maybe she's not active or maybe, you know, she grew up in it, but she's not really involved. But again, there's no casual members. The Handmaid's Tale was a success pretty much out of the gate. And each of its six seasons, it's gotten more and more popular. Although the show has been being made for 10 years because each season only has 10 episodes, but they started developing it all the way back in 2015. And actually, one of the people who helped develop the show was the creator of the Lord, Eileen Chaken, for all of my OG OG subscribers from my original channel. and she was credited as a producer during the first season, but she did leave early on in the development period. So, she wasn't even really still with the show when it actually came to air in 2017. Because of how controversial Scientology is right now, celebrity Scientologists when speaking about WOGs, which is what they call non-Scientologists or like the real world out of Scientology. That is a lot of celebrities will downplay their involvement in the church. And this is what Elizabeth Moss does. They make it sound like it's something they do on occasion here and there. kind of like if you just do yoga or pilates. It's just something that you, you know, do once in a while. But Scientology isn't like that at all. Scientologists as a whole, but especially the celebrities are trained extensively with what they are supposed to say and how they are supposed to say it. And to go back to the 2022 piece in the New Yorker where Elizabeth Moss spoke extensively about Scientology, really the only time she's spoke a lot about Scientology, she says things like, "Oh, it's totally an open religion and you know, it taught me how to communicate." And in the piece later they speak to the late Mike Render who obviously did a lot for people in the ex Scientology community and people trying to leave Scientology. And Mike was very high up in the organization too. So he knows a lot. and he ended up giving the journalists an example of some of the stuff Scientologists are taught to say that is kind of hard to argue with but vague enough that you can't really combat it. And one of the examples he gave was that a celebrity might say something like, "Oh, it taught me how to communicate well." Because obviously if you're a famous actor, you're going to be a good communicator. And I just thought that was really funny that he gave the example and that was one of the exact things that she said in the article. Leah Remeny has spoken about an incident that happened at an award show with her and Elizabeth Moss, although it wasn't like face to face. And this was when Leah and Mike won their Emmy for their show Scientology in the Aftermath. And Elizabeth Moss was there. She was nominated for The Handmaid's Tale. This was in 2017. And Elizabeth Moss previously had been nominated like every single year for Madmen, but she hadn't won. And that year in 2017, she was pretty much a lockin because a lot of the time if the Scientologists know, the celebrity Scientologists know that they're going to have to go to an event and there's going to be someone like Leah Remeny there that is a suppressive person and is very outspoken about Scientology that they just won't go because they know if there was video clips or pictures taken of them being within in like the same vicinity, Scientology wouldn't be happy. And then if there's some sort of confrontation, which most of the time obviously there's not going to be a confrontation, but then the tabloids and the media would pick it up and it would go crazy and draw more attention to it. So they just end up not going or trying to not have events that they're attending where the ex Scientologists are going. And at this same Emmys, Leah actually has spoken about when she asked Brian Cranson where Giovani Ravisi was. And Brian Cranston said to her, "Oh, well, he's not here." Basically, cuz they thought that you were going to win. And that is usually what they do. But, and this was when Brian Cranson and Giovani Reesei were there because they were doing Sneaky Pete. But Elizabeth Moss was there because, as I said, she was pretty much a shoein for winning. and she did win. So whenever Leah and Mike accepted their award, even when their category was just announced, Elizabeth Moss left the room because there's not really a situation she can win there because if she stays in the room and she applauds, then Scientology is going to be down her throat about it. But then if she sits in the room and doesn't applaud when they win, then all of the media is obviously going to, you know, they're filming all the time. So, they're going to see her not applauding and that's going to go around like crazy. So, she took the third option of let me just leave the room. And she did address this in this New Yorker profile, but she said she had to go to the bathroom. But I don't know if I knew that people I was a celebrity and people were following me having this sort of I'm a Scientologist and this really well-known and big ex Scientologist is nominated for their TV show about Scientology and I didn't want anyone to get the wrong impression. I I would wait for the next category before I would leave the room to go to the bathroom. So, I don't buy that personally, but I'll leave it up to you to decide whether you buy it. As I said, Leah Ramy details in her book all about these little rules and the kind of guides that they have to follow. And it is fascinating how choreographed everything is and how even the most casual little comments are not really casual at all and that they're all basically kind of following a script or like a manual. And Elizabeth Moss definitely seems to follow these guides based on this New Yorker profile and the few other times that she's spoken about Scientology. I think because Elizabeth Moss doesn't speak about Scientology too often and really I don't know a ton of people who've read this New Yorker profile that is really where she goes into most of the details and it is like halfway through the article too. But I think because of that, a lot of people think maybe she is just like a casual Scientologist or maybe it's kind of like casual Christians who go to church at Christmas just that it's not very involved for her and that it's not something that's in her day-to-day life and something that she's living her life under the principles of. But it is that I mean as far as I can tell anyway and from what a lot of other people have said and ex Scientologists have spoken about because as we said there's no such thing as a casual scientologist. According to these Scientology records that I was able to access through a request. Moss took the Hubard key to life course when she was only 8 years old and achieved the state of clear when she was only 11. Although Moss does majorly downplay her religious affiliation publicly, she is part of this small set of secondgeneration Hollywood Scientologists and her religious network has played a big role in her career. The vast majority of these second generation celebrity scientologists, especially the ones that were born in the church or their families joined when they were very young, they all have connections to one another through both marriages and a lot of friendships and business relationships. Elizabeth Moss was born into Scientology as both her parents joined long before she was born and she very much is in this group of second generation that is Giovani Ravi all of the Masterson siblings Juliet Lewis and all eight of her siblings and they're all interconnected to one another. They all have gone on to be friends with one another, but also there's marriages between the families and they all have many, many business relationships together. Elizabeth Moss's manager since she was 10 years old has been Gay Raisi, who's the mother to the actors Giovani Ravisi and Marissa Rabiesi. When Elizabeth Moss was working on an earlier project called Her Smell, she needed to do some research on punk rock. And so she called Beck who at the time was married to Marissa Rabisi. Beck is someone who was also born into this second generation of celebrity Scientologists and his whole family is in the church too. He has claimed since 2019 that he is not involved with the church anymore, but there are multiple multiple sources and exientologists who have claimed he is still an active member. In other records that I found, Elizabeth Moss had also achieved service completions, which is basically the purification rundown, a type of detox treatment that Scientologists do that they think kind of cleanses all of the bad things that we ingest and are exposed to. And what they basically do is they ingest large quantities of niacin. Niacin is a type of B3. So, it's found in things like meat and fish and cheese and eggs. And it is something that you need. Like, it is a healthy fat. But the amount that scientologists ingest is insane, like thousands and thousands above what you need as a human being to survive. And so they take all of this niacin and they also will then run on a treadmill and then get in a sauna and that is supposed to cleanse your system. And this purification rundown is what Danny Mastersonson and Tom Cruz pitched to their 911 firefighters and first responders clinic. And if you remember in Ashton Kutcher's letter that he wrote for leniency for Danny Masterson after he had been convicted of multiple violent Ashton Kutcher talked about Danny Masterson being this amazing person who wanted to help firefighters after 9/11. This is what he was referring to. They did this big event. They got loads of celebrities. is Leah Remedy has spoken about this and how much she regrets being involved with it because of how many people it hurt. Specifically again 911 first responders. There are a lot of celebrities like Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis who aren't Scientologists but they are in my opinion and allegedly involved with the organization. Be it they've taken help in boosting their careers or help covering up their messes, which is how Ashton Kutcher allegedly first got involved with all of the Scientology mess. This was through his relationship with his close friend and mentor, as he calls him, Danny Masterson. Ava Longoria is another person who isn't a Scientologist but seems to be involved with a lot of Scientology events and people. And I have actually had a lovely subscriber who reached out to me who worked on Desperate Housewives and they were telling me that during one of the early seasons when they were filming Desperate Housewives, they were working on the same lot as War of the Worlds and they were filming at the same time. And as I mentioned in my Tom Cruz other video about celebrity Scientology, Tom Cruz was trying to recruit Steven Spielberg at the time that they were filming this movie and they had a big falling out while they were making War of the World. But it got even worse this falling out through the promotion of the film as it turned into this huge thing when Tom Cruz did all those crazy interviews like jumping on Oprah's couch. He was actually supposed to be promoting War of the Worlds at the time, but nobody remembers that because all they remember is him jumping on the couch about Katie Holmes. Things did escalate through filming of the movie because Steven Spielberg had no interest in being recruited. And when he just casually started talking about family members who'd been helped through psychiatrists, this made a lot of tension between him and Tom Cruz. Spielberg also saw the kind of bizarre relationship that was happening at the time between Cruz and Nazin Bonardi, who was someone who was selected for Cruz prior to him dating and marrying Katie Holmes. And Nazanine and Cruz dated throughout the filming and allegedly Cruz and Scientology put her through some really horrendous things. And there's a lot of details in an article I've linked below. And I do go into a lot more detail in the other Scientology video, but Spielberg saw some of these things and just coupled with everything that I just mentioned. It made things really difficult. But Spielberg had also made a lot of accommodations for Cruz on that set. He allowed him to have this Scientology tent at the time and anyone who wanted to come in and learn about Scientology through the whole filming of War of the World could do so in this tent. And obviously given that the tent was on the set, they wanted to try and get as many people interested as they could. Now, why did I mention Desperate Housewives whenever I'm talking about this? I do have ADHD, but this is going somewhere. So, the whole reason that I was mentioning the subscriber that reached out is because when they were working on Desperate Housewives, they had this Scientology tent basically outside of Desperate Housewives. And there were a lot of perks offered to coming into the tent and hearing about Scientology. They offered people free massages and like other little treats. things like Tom Cruz has his own personal barista that goes with him everywhere. And when he's not serving Tom, he was in the Scientology tent making super fancy coffees. And you know, if it's Tom Cruz's personal barista, that's got to be some good coffee. So my subscriber was joking that after crazy days, sometimes the staff would joke that, "Oh, a massage and a coffee sounds like really great right now." But the deal was you had to listen to the Scientology spiel to receive those things. So that put them off. And from what they told me about working on Desperate Housewives, they more than earned it. And it was really interesting because a lot of the stuff that I talked about in the Desperate Housewives video that I wasn't able to like 100% confirm, but was saying, "Oh, this is what's alleged." A lot of that stuff was confirmed. It's certainly possible that this tent in War of the Worlds next to Desperate Housewives is how Eva Longoria met Tom Cruz or met some of the Scientology staff. My subscriber didn't say anything like that. That's just my own interpretation. It's also possible that it was at some other Hollywood event, but they were filming next to each other for a long time. And from that time period on, there was a lot of EA Longoria going to Scientology events and also Eve Longoria being around Tom Cruz. She especially was spending a lot of time around Cruz when he was trying to recruit the Beckhams into Scientology. Eva Longoria did promote the firefighter treatment center that I just talked about. And as I have mentioned in other videos, it just I know I've mentioned this firefighter thing before, but it really really annoys me. One of my mom's cousins actually passed away in 9/11, and it's just like the scummiest scummiest thing. I also think it's such a clear example of Scientology doing harm. How dangerous it is to have these Scientology celebrities promoting things and these fringe people also promoting it like the That7s Show cast that aren't Scientologists but certainly operate within the Scientology world. if for two seconds they had looked into it and obviously the Scientology celebrities are going to take the word of Scientology that this is right because they're all doing it too. But even if people like Ashton Kutcher and Eva Angoria took two seconds to look into it and saw, okay, the plan is take these firefighters that have all serious health conditions because of what happened on 9/11. We're going to take them off all of their medication. We're going to pump them full of niacin and then we're going to put them on a treadmill and then we're going to put them in a sauna and that's the treatment. I mean, I'm not going to even insult Miss Gloria by saying like she would know that that is not a good course of treatment. And these people just either didn't care, didn't look into it, or just took the word of Danny Masterson and Tom Cruz and the other Scientologists. And what's even more frustrating is that 20 years later, Ashton Kutcher is still promoting this as a positive thing and putting it in a letter where he is asking for leniency for a rapist. This center did not help anyone. It harmed a lot of people. So Ashton Kutcher either didn't look into anything and just blindly believed it. did look into it and didn't care or Scientology is the one telling him what to include in these letters because Scientology is never going to see anything wrong with the purification rundown. As we've talked about a lot on this channel, the That7s Show cast is very wrapped up in Scientology. Going to all their events, performing in their Christmas play every year. I mean, that is a pretty big deal. going and being in the play of a religion you are not a part of year after year. Many people have alleged over the years that Scientology has cleaned things up for Kutcher and other cast members and he and Milunis also surround themselves with Scientologists. It's not just the Mastersons and Laura Preon. It's many other Scientologists. A large majority of their staff are Scientologists and many many of their friends are too. When Danny Mastersonson was out on bail for his trial, he was constantly at events and weddings of Scientologists and Ashton Amela were always there, too. Now, I spoke to someone recently, another lovely subscriber whose close friend who's also a celebrity herself, dated Toeer Grace when he was on That 70 Show. And so, this celebrity friend, like you would absolutely know them, spent a lot of time around the That 70 Show cast. The subscriber told me some like little silly anecdotes like Ashton Cutcher and Toeer Grace were at the same Lakers game and Toeer Grace saw Kutcher across the court and called him to say oh I'm across from you and he watched Kutcher take out the phone look at it and put it back in his pocket without answering it. And they also talked about oh the cast of that 70s show was just this constant like trying to one up each other. one would come in with this super fancy expensive Range Rover and the next day someone else would come in with an even fancier and even more expensive Range Rover and it just went back and forth like that. And she did say that Toeer Grace and Ashton Kutcher had this massive back and forth and rivalry. It wasn't just Toeer and Danny Masterson. When That 70s Show was on, a lot of people had a poor opinion of Toeer and thought he was stuck up or smug because all the other That70 Show cast got on and were friends and were in Danny Masterson's little click. But now that people have seen Danny Masterson's true colors, it seems that people are a lot more forgiving and just saying, "Oh, Toeer saw Masterson for who he was." which could also be true. But it seems according to the person I spoke to that again spent a lot of time with Toeer and whose friend dated him for quite a significant amount of time that two things can be true at once. And I'll leave it at that. But that 70s show cast, the reason I was bringing up the relationship with Toeer that one of my subscribers friends had is because they were telling me that Ashton Kutcher is a lot smarter than people think. I'm sure a lot of people do think he's smart like because he has made a lot of money. He has done a lot of investing and he does speak about things that it just does seem like he has a lot of knowledge in business and certain things that come along that he sees value in like Uber and Airbnb. But of course, he did get ridiculously lucky with that 70 show. He made a fortune and then other shows because he was cast on a show as a no one. He'd done really no acting experience. And let's be honest, Ashton Kutcher isn't exactly the best actor. I think that situation was he's a good-looking guy and he got a [ __ ] ton of luck and was cast on a show that gave him access to enormous paychecks that allowed him to have money to put into Uber and Airbnb and make I don't fly commercial crazy money. Ashton Kutcher and Maunis also have a really slick PR team. And so all of that, him being smart, him having a great team behind him, I find it really hard to believe that he would just throw this story about 9/11 firefighters in there without fully knowing what it was about. So, is it possible that Ashton just didn't care and put it in there because he thought it would make his friend look good? Yeah, it's possible. But I think it's probably more likely that Scientology had at least something to do with those letters. I am really interested to hear what other people think though in the comments. I know it's also been alleged by quite a number of sources that Scientology has helped Ashton Kutcher cover up a lot with the first being the horrible situation with Ashley Ellerin. I'm sure a lot of people have heard this story as it was talked about when the letters went viral, but Ashley Ellerin was a beautiful 22year-old model and in February 2001, she was supposed to go on a date with Ashton Kutcher. Kutcher was late to pick her up and when he knocked on the door, Ashley didn't answer. Ashton claims he looked in the window and just saw a red wine stain on the floor that he thought was from the party they had the night before. He couldn't see Ashley. She didn't answer the door. So, he alleges he left and went straight to the event that he was supposed to go with her to. Unfortunately, Ashley was inside as she had been killed by the Hollywood Ripper, a man called Michael Garulio. When everything came out about Ashton and Mila's letters two years ago, there were allegations that Kutcher had entered the house that night and had seen that Ashley had been killed. In September 2023, when Ashton Amma's letters went viral, one of Danny Mastersonson's victims and his ex-girlfriend who dated him through the first 5 years of that 70s show, Chrissy Bixler, posted on Instagram that there was more to the story that night. She alleged that Ashton had actually called Dany because he was panicking. Other people have made allegations that Kutcher also called his team. She claims that Ashton Kutcher called Danny Masterson. And there have also been other people who claim that Kutcher called his team because he did enter the house and see Ashley. Obviously, these are allegations, but Chrissy detailed that Cutcher and Masterson made a plan that night. And then other people have alleged that Kutcher was concerned about what would happen to his career if he was the person to call this in. So he called Mastersonson and his team to seek advice and they were the ones who told him to go to the event and pretend like he'd seen nothing. Chrissy said that Mastersonson had the phone on speaker phone and she heard everything and she said that there was a lot more to the phone call, but nothing else has been said about it at this point. Kutcher and Kunis are still frequently seen with Masterson's siblings who are of course still active scientologists and they still have a large number of their staff and friends who are practicing scientologists as well. So keeping in line with Scientologists aversion to health care and medication is their aversion to vaccinations. And this came up with Juliet Lewis in particular when there were requirements through Showtime and her show Yellow Jackets that they had to be vaccinated to be on the set. The Hollywood productions around CO had to go through a lot to be able to shoot and Showtime especially had a lot of guidelines that had to be followed in order to even go on set. And I can actually give you firsthand experience of this because I was actually the first ever set visitor on the Lord set after COVID. They didn't have anyone on the set during season 2 and I went on set for the penultimate episodes filming episode 9 of season 3 and then I was also there. They were doing the table read for the series finale of the Elward Generation Q. In the summer of 2022, when the discussion started about whether I'd be able to go on set, I was told like, don't get your hopes up because we haven't had anyone on set for 2 years. And they still had like heavy heavy restrictions. You had to wear masks the entire time unless you were like outside like walking between trailers and you had to test if you were going to set. Like I had to do a test the day before I went and you had to also do a test when you arrived and checked into set. But when I was doing the test the day before, it might have been two days before, one of the two, whenever that was being organized, Showtime actually organized and they paid for it for me, too, which was very nice. And that was a very different experience to any other test that I had for CO, especially because I was working in healthcare and things. And it was usually a brain swab that I was getting and it was a very quick done and dirty test like just shove that Q-tip up to your brain, swab it and you're done. Whereas place Showtime sent me was super super fancy. It had like water features. They were playing music. There was just everybody, you know, very nice and calm and everybody was really beautiful and in like really nice scrubs and there was, you know, cucumber water and all that. And when I sat in this massage chair to get the swab, it was just like they very lightly were like around your nostril just like and I remember saying to I was like, "Is that it?" And they're like, "Oh, yes, yes, you're done now. Thanks for coming." And that was it was just the way it was. So, like it was such a contradiction between the the brain swab. The place that I went, it's like a chain. I just went to the one in Culver City because that was where the Lord set was in like this. It was kind It's kind of a weird set cuz it's like in a residential area, but that was it. They then like called me and sent me the email saying, "Yeah, yeah, you're good." And I was able to go. But when I got to set, there's there's always like a check-in on a set, but there was even more kind of going through the whole process and there, you know, the the wristbands and stuff. So, if it's Tuesday, they give you a Tuesday wristband and you would have to do a test, like an instant one then and there when you got there. It's funny, I picked up this pen. This actually the pen they gave me from the the Lord set. They gave me like a little uh gift bag with like some really nice stuff in it from the show. So, it it's some of the stuff that I have on the the bottom back there for any of my OG people know. But when I got to the set, it was very very like a lot a lot of restrictions as I said, you know, we had to wear the mask the whole time and stuff and you had to like sign things saying, "Yeah, I'm going to like follow all these protocols and blah blah blah blah." But with Yellow Jackets, they actually did season 1 like before the pandemic obviously and they had a massive chunk of time between season 1 and two. There's almost two years because of the situation with the pandemic and then there was two years between two and three because of the writers and the actor strike. But with yellow jackets, there was not just the situation with the vaccinations and healthcare and everything that caused issues. As I vaguely vaguely hinted at in my last video, Yellow Jackets has a lot lot of issues going on on the set. And also in my last video I mentioned that I'm working on a big video about not just Yellow Jackets but Dexter, Shameless, The Lord, a ton of Showtime shows. And there is crazy good information in that that I am a tiny bit scared of posting it. But we are going to go over some little details here that are extremely interesting. And this is going to be a little bit of spoil. Well, it will be spoilers for Yellow Jackets because I am going to talk about some things that it doesn't really make sense unless I reference the story line. So, when and I'll I'll put a time stamp on the screen for when I'm not talking about storyline stuff, but as anyone who watches the show knows, Juliet's character was one of the main characters and she was killed off in season 2 in the season 2 finale. And there has been speculation in the fandom that that was not supposed to happen. And according to my source who is also a subscriber and was a really really lovely person and we had such a great chat where she was telling me all of this crazy information and my subscriber who worked on various Showtime shows for years, worked on Yellow Jackets for its entire run, although she did leave before season 3 finished airing. She told me that death in season two where Nat is killed off is 100% something that was not supposed to happen. That was due to the issues between cast members. And Juliet ended up asking to be let out of her contract at the end of season 2. And with Showtime, and I've talked about this in a lot of videos, how they signed people for contracts with TV shows, you know, 10, 20 years ago, like maybe they'd sign people for sometimes even just a season, and they'd see how the show did, but that gave people a lot of negotiating power, actors, because then they could ask for more money if the show is a success. They will usually sign people to a five season contract. And usually it's five. This doesn't apply to Showtime, but usually it's five because five seasons, 100 episodes you get into syndication. And that is the always the goal for shows because it is just so much more money that you will get if it goes into syndication. But with Showtime and Yellow Jackets in particular, the creators had a fiveyear plan. They had five seasons. They knew the big beats of the show, like this is going to happen. Like things like, oh, this season that just ended, they had these frog scientists show up. They knew that was going to happen. That's, you know, towards the end of season 3. You don't watch Yellow Jackets in an absolute nutshell. The show takes place in two timelines. There's a 1996 timeline where teen girls are from New Jersey. They are flying to the national soccer tournament and their plane crashes in the Canadian wilderness. They survive out there for 19 months. Well, some of them survive. And the ones that make it back, the other half of the show we see in well in present day in season 1, so it's like 2021. And they are all obviously now in their 40s. And we see like half the show is the teens out in the wilderness and half the show is the adults kind of living in present day with all of the effects and dealing with the consequences of what they did out in the wilderness. And you you have like an amazing amazing cast like Melanie Linsky, Christina Richie, and there's even been people join the cast now like o wait till I tell you guys about the Hillary Swank stuff. And so Juliet Lewis's character is like one of the main main lead characters. And so it really really affected I mean any of those characters being killed off early would affect it. But literally the entire show is supposed to build and I think if you watch the show this makes sense that the whole show is supposed to build to a confrontation between Juliet Lewis's character Nat and Mel Linsk's character Shauna. That's what the whole show is leading towards. So, whenever they agree to let Juliet break her contract in season 2 and she's killed off, they had to go back and rewrite a ton of season 2. And originally, they had two new adult survivors come in the second season. One was Lauren Ambrose, who was playing the adult version of the character Van, and then Simone Castle, who is playing the adult version of Lahi. When they hired both of them, Lauren Ambrose signed a contract for the remaining five seasons. She was signed on as a regular and was signed to do the whole run of the show. Simone Kessle wasn't signed for the remaining of the five seasons. And in the original season 2, she did not have as many episodes as she ended up with. And that was because in season 2, she wasn't supposed to have this huge storyline and all of these things. They had to build that in in order to build in Nat Juliet Lewis's character's death. And so this season, in season 3, when Simone Castle's character Lahie is killed off in the first couple of episodes, a lot of people were like, "What the [ __ ] Why did we spend all of season 2 going indepth into this big storyline and all of this stuff? And it's because that was never supposed to happen. It was really like a tool to get to Nat being killed at Lah's compound. She was still supposed to have a compound and a cult and everything, but it wasn't supposed to be as much as it was. One thing that we'll get much more into in the Showtime video, but just to give you a little taste for now is the marketing and also just the priorities of Showtime and Paramount. And they seemingly have the same priorities for all of their shows. And there is a lot of stuff that we'll discuss about the L- Word and other ones, but right now it seems that all Showtime allegedly cares about is getting big name guest stars that even if they're only able to get them for a few episodes or only able to afford them for a few episodes that they secure them and then they absolutely put them in all of the marketing materials no matter how small their role is. no matter how few episodes they're in, no matter how few minutes of episodes they're in. And you can see this with Dexter. They had Sarah Michelle Geller and Patrick Dempsey, even though like Sarah Michelle Geller was in like 5 minutes of each episode, and they were on the poster and at like Comic- Con and stuff. And I love Sarah Michelle Geller, but it makes no sense. But it's the same thing that happened this season with Hillary Swank. According to the person I spoke to, Showtime even wanted the, you know, like all the promotional material was done with Melanie Linsky, Christina Richie, and they wanted to have Lauren Ambrose, and Hillary Swank. If you've seen the show, that makes no sense. Hi guys, me again. just to be clear on what I'm saying about the marketing materials here because it is hard to explain without the other half an hour of context, but we are talking about Juliet Lewis here and I want to of course give some good details. So, just to say there was originally marketing material created by the marketing and PR team and they, you know, come up with a ton of ideas, put it all together and then show it to the higherups. They ended up then nixing all of the stuff that my sources told me, you know, was really well thought out and really nice stuff. And then they wanted to do this focus on Hillary Swank. And you see that in the trailers and stuff, I'm talking about the still promo material. What they ended up going with is that like hot pink eat your heart out promo material. And the reason that kind of looks like not the greatest is because that is what they kind of had to rush out because they didn't use the original stuff the marketing team came up with. They didn't use the Christina Richie, Melanie Linsky, and Hillary Swank focused stuff. And so they ended up going with a secret third option which was kind of like a slap together thing. And Hillary Swank wasn't even the first, second, third, or fourth choice for that role of Melissa. And I'll get much more into that and who the original first choice was in the video that I'm making along with what happens in the bonus episode, what the symbol means, the cabin guy, scenes they had to remove from episodes from season 2 because those scenes were supposed to relate to what we saw in the bonus episode. and lots of things with the cast, all the dynamics, how it affected the show, and what is really going on behind the scenes. And we're going to discuss how it is allegedly one individual that is holding up the season 4 renewal because we still haven't heard about that. And this is despite the fact that Yellow Jackets is the most popular show on Showtime except for Dexter Original Sin. We will get into all of that very soon. And I feel okay about putting the bonus episode stuff out there because to quote my source, they said, "There is no way on earth that Paramount Showtime are ever going to let that bonus episode see the light of day." So stay tuned for the video next month. And I know, I know I'm horrible, but we're building suspense here. So now we're gonna get into how related all these celebrity scientologists are because it's not just like they're all friends and they all know each other because they're all Scientologists. There is a lot more going on like business-wise and familywise, too. So just like the Mastersons and the Rabies, Juliet Lewis's family, she has eight siblings. They're all interconnected to other celebrity Scientologists, too. Juliet Lewis's sister, Brandy, she is actually married to Ethan Sup, who played Randy on My Name is Earl. Juliet actually guest starred on several episodes of My Name is Earl. And that show had My Name is Earl had a ton of other celebrity Scientologist guest star on it as well, but Ethan Supley played the second lead on the show. The brother Randy, and the main character was Earl, played by Jason Lee. And Jason Lee was a celebrity scientologist as well. He seemingly has distanced himself from the church right around the same time that Laura Preon started saying she wasn't practicing Scientology anymore. He hasn't really like addressed it or anything like that, but again, I think it's a very similar situation to Laura Preon because Jason Lee was very very close friends with Danny Masterson. He was in his little crouch along with Giovani Ravisi and Jason Lee became a Scientologist around 1990 and he hadn't done acting or anything like that and so he also is another Scientologist who became a celebrity and got a big acting career after joining the church. Ethan SPY of course himself is really good friends with Danny Mastersonson and Ashton Kutcher and was even on their show The Ranch. Juliet's family is very close with the Ravis too. And Juliet has done a lot of projects with Giovani Ravi and his mother who has Ravi Entertainment Group and manages a lot of the celebrity scientologists. Juliet has done productions that she has produced and financed as well. So you have the Mastersons and the Raves. Both mothers in those families represent all of their children as actors and other celebrity scientologists like again Gay Ravi represents Elizabeth Moss and Gay Ravi has also produced a huge amount of productions that have celebrity scientologists in them. And of course all these people that I'm mentioning throughout Danny Masterson, Chris Masterson, Giovanni Reci, Ethan Subley, Eric Balffor, Michael Pena, Jason Lee, Laura Preppon, they all were very close friends from their late teens, early 20s. Most of them way before that, the ones that were raised in Scientology. And then people like Jason Lee and Laura Preon joined them in their late teens when they joined the church. I also mention Michael Pena because another connection is Michael Pena's wife. She is best best friends with Danny Masterson and originally was his personal assistant for years and years all through that 70s show. And she was actually mentioned several times throughout the trial as one of the victims told her what happened. And then there were other allegations of her being involved with covering for Dany. And around the time of the trial, Danny Masterson transferred large properties and other assets into the name of Michael Pena's wife, Brie Schaefer. And most people believe that this was done purposely because, as I mentioned before, there is the civil lawsuit coming up with Danny Masterson's victims who are seeking damages against Scientology and Danny Masterson for specifically what they had to endure during the trial. All of the harassment and all of the horrible things that they did. Most people, if they've heard anything about this, probably heard about their pets being killed and just like horrible, horrible situations because those three victims and their families were absolutely tortured throughout that trial. And I really hope that Scientology has to pay them a fuckload of money when this trial happens. And I'm sure a lot more what they had to go through is going to come out in the trial. And as I said, I will be covering that when it happens in September. And this core group of all these Scientology second generation celebrity friends, they obviously have like a dating history together and everything like that. I mentioned in my last video like Laura Preon and and Ben Foster, even though Ben Foster claims he's not a Scientologist, but along with all the other dating history, there is like the marriages to like Ethan Sup and Juliet's sister. And another one that I mentioned in passing earlier is Marissa Rabisi who is married or sorry was married to the singer Beck who is another born into Scientology raised in Scientology but he now also does claim as of 2019 as well that he is no longer a member. Although there are a lot of people who especially like ex Scientologists and people that are in the know much more than like regular people. They have all said that they do not believe that he has left the church. It's just again this kind of distancing as a public Scientologist. And another person who was in this friendship group was Emily Armstrong who is the new lead singer of Lincoln Park. She was chosen to replace the late Chester Bennington. And there was pretty much immediate controversy with Emily because Cedric Bixler ended up posting on Instagram that he was disappointed by Emily being chosen as the replacement because of Emily's actions when it came to Danny Mastersonson. Emily had attended one of the pre-trial hearings for Danny Masterson. And whenever this came out, obviously people were very, very angry about it. And there also started to be a lot of discussion about Emily being a Scientologist because I don't think a ton of people knew that. People then started asking, "Why are you still in this religion when they hate gay people?" And then people were really, rightfully so, fired up about the Danny Masterson situation. And she tried to again like all of them do tried to downplay Scientology, her involvement, her family, all of this stuff. And then she tried to be like, "Oh, I just went to one pre-trial hearing. It was just the one." And said that she had been misinformed. And it was the way that the statement was put together. If you read it and you knew nothing about the situation, you might be like, "Oh, she regrets going to this pre-trial hearing. She's not a Scientologist anymore or she's like a ve at most like a casual member." But if you're someone who follows Scientology, knows how Scientology speak kind of works, knows that this is their pattern, they downplay stuff, they use very selective language, and they say things like, "I only went to one rapist pre-trial to support them." Like, "Hasn't everybody done that?" It was very in line with how Asha addressed their letters. The way that things were phrased in Ashton Amela's letters, they would say things like, "Oh, in general, we support victims." But they don't say the names or anything about the actual victims that they should have been concerned about. In this instance where they were writing letters for leniency for Danny Masterson, they don't address his victims. They just say in general because that obviously their apology was just like in my opinion garbage. But with Emily Armstrong, it was this vague general stuff and then saying, "Oh, I went to one pre-trial hearing and I was misinformed." The same with Asha. It isn't actually saying what people want to hear, which is Danny Masterson is a monster and did horrendous things. Hi guys, editing Ash cutting in here with some interesting information that I actually didn't know until a few days ago when I found this out when I was editing because as you know I'm always still like continuing the research until I post which is why you get these clips frequently. But when I was doing the original Danny Masterson video, I did know that he had a band called Grandpa verse Prowler. And I'd come across it before, like it way before I even did YouTube, because the guy from Buffy who plays Warren in the trio, Adam Bush, he's in it with him. I must have just saw him passing or something one day because I just remember having the thought of, "Oh, that's the guy from Buffy and the guy from That 70s Show." and Michael Pena's in it as well, but I never thought anything more of it. And when I was doing the Masterson video, it just didn't seem relevant to put it in because I talked about him being a DJ, DJ Donkey Punch, and DJ Mom jeans. So, I never it put it into the video. I've not put it in any other That7s Show stuff because again, there's like all that other stuff to talk about. But I just found out that the Grandpa Verse Prowler band actually opened for Emily Armstrong's band, Dead Sarah, in the summer of 2016. There is hardly any information out there about this. I had to really really dig to find even an it's not even an article, it's just like a a Instagram post on a completely separate Instagram that has like barely any followers. And I only happened to even know about this opening cuz I saw it referenced in a Reddit comment and there's like no articles. There's no coverage even if you try and Google the bands together. So I don't know if there's been an attempt to like scrub or something because there's not even any pictures or anything at all. There's not even a picture of Emily Armstrong and Danny Mastersonson that will come up if you Google them together or specifically dig and dig and dig and look for a picture of them together. And yet, there are plenty on this Instagram account. And there are plenty of other clips and interviews and flyers and references and everything all over this Instagram account that has Danny Masterson and Emily Armstrong spending a lot of time together right when the LAPD launched the investigation into Masterson. And there's even things like members of Dead Sarah, borrowing members of Masterson's band and Masterson's band, borrowing members of Dead Sarah. There's one that they reference quite a lot where a member of Dead Sarah called Shan Friday subs in for Michael Pena a lot. And Shan Friday actually used to date Demi Moore, which of course is another link in with Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher. And I don't think I've ever mentioned this before. I think a lot of people might not know this, but Demi Moore's mother was a Scientologist and she has allegedly always dabbled, especially of course when she was with Kutcher and that was when he was doing the Scientology Christmas thing every year too. And honestly, I want to do a whole video on the Scientology Christmas thing and the crazy amount of celebrities that have been involved with that over the years. And the Grandpa verse Prowler Instagram account seems to be run by Masters or someone in his team or was because a lot of the posts focus on him. So I assume that's like one of the only things that still exists. So I did just think that was relevant and and worth mentioning even just for the fact that like I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere. And believe me, I've spent too many hours of my life talking about that 70s show and and well, the cast and researching the cast. But one other thing that I just want to add in since since we're here is I have never really talked about Emily Armstrong. So, again, I've never brought this up before, but Emily Armstrong, she very much in any time she's talked about this in the story that I've shown on the screen, she tries to basically say, you know, I went to one pre-trial hearing and then that was it. We had, you know, no other association and I didn't support him anymore or anything like this. If you go back, there's there's a few people that have put together timelines. She was still like liking Danny Mastersonson's Instagram posts and following him and everything like that significantly longer than she's making it seem and for months and months and months like all the way up to when he was on trial. So, it definitely doesn't seem like the relationship ended when it did. Because if you really stopped being friends with someone because you heard the truth about what they done, you wouldn't still be liking their Instagram posts. Honestly, Instagram gets celebrities into so much trouble because five, even 10 years ago, a lot of celebrities didn't handle their own social media. They had teams. But now most celebrities do or they have maybe teams that help them, but they do have it on their phone and they'll be people posting a lot of the time. And especially someone like Emily Armstrong that's not like a huge huge celebrity. I'm always taken aback by how many of them let these like little truths come out through stupid things like who they're following, who they unfollow, and all of that. Because as I've mentioned before, the unfollow follow and the liking of posts is like one of the last sort of holds that celebrities have because a lot of the time when they're doing like movies or shows, they have parameters and things that they have to do. Even stuff like, oh, you're on a new season of this. They send you the post and like, okay, you need to post this on the 1st of May at 12 noon and blah blah blah. post the trailer and by being able to still have like hold of their own Instagram accounts and being able to go on and unfollow someone that they're having a back and forth with or having a fight with. They know that that is going to send a message to their followers or people that are watching. They know that there's going to be articles about it sometimes. It is just one of those things that they use as a weapon themselves because they know they can send a message that way. But that sounds like conspiracy, but they also get themselves into trouble with it sometimes, too. That is just another case of it. So, back to past me. And I believe Emily Armstrong's mother used to work in PR for Scientology. Then she was the editor for the Freedom magazine. And then she got into trouble and ended up being sent to the Hull, which is Scientology's prison basically. And then when she got out of the hole, she was then promoted to be David Msgavage speech writer. So again, all connected, higher ranking person, like she's literally the speech writer for the leader of Scientology. And so when they try and downplay, oh yeah, I'm just a casual Scientologist, or when they don't explicitly say like, I have left Scientology is terrible, that they leave it open hoping that people will like fill in the blanks like all the other people that we've mentioned. And there is actually speculation that some of the other members of Lincoln Park are now Scientologists. I don't really know like all the details on that, but I have continually heard that about them. And even Emily's previous band, Dead Sarah, they were Scientologists. And even one of the members, Shan Friday, dated Demi Moore, which links them all back together because they're all I need like a big like conspiracy string board to link them all up. But Emily Armstrong, her statement again, it was just classic Scientology with trying to throw in uh oh yeah, I support victims in general, just not these ones. And oh yeah, I just went to one rapist trial to support him and I'm vaguely just involved with the church. is more my family's thing, but I'll leave it up to you to decide whether you think she's involved or not. And it isn't just celebrity connections that Scientologists build. They also build connections with people in power, especially the police. And I think there's a detail from the Danny Masterson case that perfectly illustrates how and why Scientology builds these relationships with people like the police. And it also gives a perfect example of why it is so dangerous. And I do think that this detail might come up in the civil trial because it is in my opinion pretty important. One thing that there's a lot of misreporting around in the Masterson case is the reporting of the attacks. All three of Danny Masterson's victims were Scientologists. And Scientologists are told, "You are not ever, ever to report another Scientologist to the [ __ ] authorities, which is like the real world authorities. You are supposed to deal with it internally in Scientology. You report anything. the worst crimes imaginable, you are supposed to report it not to the police, but to Scientology. I know it's easy for us who are not in a cult to sit here and say like, well, I would have done this or I would have done that and oh, this is a dumb Scientology rule. But obviously, we are not in their situation. We haven't gone through a horrendous attack. We haven't been brainwashed and and in a cult. And also the victims knew if they did go to the police, they would lose everything. They would lose their families, their friends, their jobs, their livelihoods, everything because most of them were lifelong Scientologists or, you know, like Chrissy Bixler, she'd joined Scientology and she'd been with Danny Masterson for years. Their whole lives and everyone they loved were Scientologists. And if they reported Masterson to the police, that was like the highest of crimes, especially because he was a celebrity on a super popular TV show. So, they knew if we do this, we're completely screwed. But even saying that, one of the victims did go to the police. And that is often left out a lot of the time when people are talking about this because the three of them did all go obviously separately. These all happened at different times to Scientology and reported it and obviously that all came out in the trial everything that cuz Scientology document everything and one of the victims went to the LAPD back then to report what happened. So when the Jane Doe went up to report the incident to the LAPD, at first the LAPD did not take her into an interview room and again she was reporting a violent R. They tried to take her information at a desk in a crowded bull ring with dozens of people around and phones ringing. I can't imagine having to do that one, but in that situation that's horrible. And this next part, I haven't been able to get clarification if this happened on the same day or the next day when returning. But later, the Jane Doe then went to try and report it again. And this time she was taken into an interview room to give a statement. And when she was taken into the interview room, on the wall was a giant picture of the police officers in the LAPD smiling with Michael Pena, the celebrity Scientologist and very close friend of Danny Masterson, the attacker. And as I also referenced a minute ago, celebrity Scientologists are seen as the highest of high of gods within Scientology. So, not only did she know when she went into that room, Michael Pena is really good friends with Danny Masterson and his wife is Danny Masterson's best friend and assistant who's like constantly cleaning up his messes. And Michael Pena's wife, Brie Schaefer, isn't just Masterson's former assistant. Isn't just one of his best friends. She got her star in Hollywood, the start of her career through Masterson. And most important of all, Brie Schaefer is the first person that one of the Jane Does victim B named and the first person listed on the report when the LAPD asked her to provide names of cooperating witnesses. And on top of that, when the victim walked into the room, she doesn't know what the connection between Scientology, the LAPD, and Michael Pena is. Was this just a random picture? Of course, she's not going to think that because Scientology donates a lot of money to the police. And they also will kind of suck up to them a bit because Scientology records everything like writes down everything in a record, but also they have cameras everywhere. And so one thing that Leah Remendy and Mike Grinder have said, and I think Claire Hedley said this too, that because they have like cameras everywhere, if they see something like somebody breaks into a car and they catch it on the Scientology CCTV, they will then take it and go and give it to the LAPD like just off their own back because they are constantly trying to do these things to get in good with the police. And then they also donate huge amounts of money to the police. Leah Remany actually found out that the detective who closed her missing person's case about Shelley Muscavage going missing was the same detective that was a paid speaker at multiple multiple Scientology events. So he was being paid a bucket of money multiple times a year to go and speak at the Scientology events and Scientology center and then he is the one in charge of investigating the missing wife of the leader of Scientology. I don't know about you but to me that sounds like a huge conflict of interest. And so I cannot imagine you are going to try and report this terrible thing that's happened to you. And you already know that you shouldn't be there because you should be dealing with this not in the WG world but in the Scientology world. And then you try and report it once and they're not even taking you into a private room. And then when they do take you into a private room, there's a picture on the wall of one of the best friends of the person who attacked you. All smiles with the police officers. So those are the main hidden Scientologists, the people that I mention in a video in passing and people are always surprised that they are a Scientologist and they're also people that choose to fly under the radar. But there are also celebrities who allegedly are Scientologists but outright claim that they're not. Leah Remeny has spoken a lot about Will and Jada Smith being Scientologists. And Jada Smith and Leah Remany even got into a back and forth on the red table talk because Jada would not admit she was a Scientologist and said she was just an explorer and a student and studies many religions. It's my own personal opinion that I think it's pretty clear that they are Scientologists. They even started a Scientology school. Of course, Tom Cruz is top of the pyramid, but Will and Jada are pretty high up with them being both huge stars and them being a couple because Scientology, if there's anything they love more than a celebrity Scientologist, it's a celebrity Scientology couple. And that's why when Tom Cruz was trying to recruit David and Victoria Beckham, he enlisted Will and Jada to help him. Tom Cruz was determined to get David and Victoria to join. And allegedly, there were millions of taxexempt money spent trying to recruit the Beckhams. This was when the Beckhams moved to Los Angeles when David started playing for the LA Galaxy in 2007. And the Beckhams did become good friends with Tom Cruz and Katie Holmes. I remember this at the time because I was excited about him playing in the US. And I do remember lots of content in the media about them being friends. Scientology really had their sights set on them because I just remember it being such a big thing that they were coming to the US. And I remember at the time there was like a big push to get more eyes on US soccer and because the Beckhams were such big stars, they saw that as an opportunity. Scientology owns a ton of property, especially in downtown Clear Water. That's why downtown Clear Water is pretty quiet. Scientology and Tom Cruz and his sisters own like tons of real estate down there. Tom Cruz. I remember once he was talking about his apartment when he came into my AMC and it's like a gorgeous, gorgeous apartment and his sisters have apartments in the same block and they own so much property. But one of the biggest places that Scientology owns is this compound called Gold Coast. And this is where the worst Scientology [ __ ] goes down. This is allegedly where they keep the troublemakers and they actually allegedly hold people there against their will. Mike Reindder has spoken about being kept at Gold Coast in the Hull, which is where Emily Armstrong's mother allegedly was too. And this is where you are sent to be punished. A lot of the people who've escaped Scientology have escaped from this facility, but it is very, very difficult because apparently there's a fence that goes around the whole thing and every inch is covered with cameras. And there's also tons of security and like barbed wire and spikes. And Scientology claim these measures are to keep out bears. But if that was true, why would the spikes be inside? If you look at the way things are set up, it is clear that they're trying to keep something in, not to stop something getting in. Most Scientologists aren't even allowed to know where this Gold Coast is. And whenever Tom Cruz comes to Gold Coast, all of the staff of this facility stop what they're doing as he drives in. And they all like stand along the road where he's coming in and they all salute him as he's coming in and they walk him around and like show him, oh this new room and all of this. And if he comes in the room, everybody has to like stand up and stand to attention and salute him and call him sir. And this is what Leah Remeny talks about when she says, you know, celebrities get used to this like level of being amazing and everybody's running around doing everything for you and you're just treated like a god and that sort of treatment is addicting and there's not really much higher you can go than that. Enter Scientology. And so Leah Remany has said that this absolutely like is one of the biggest factors in why she thinks Tom Cruz stays in Scientology because of all of the way he's treated and you know people like that is crazy that people are you know saluting Tom Cruz and it it's just I mean there's so many wild things but there was an actual professionalgrade soccer pitch installed at Gold Coast in anticipation of David and Victoria visiting the facility. Not even that like, oh, they're definitely coming or oh, they're going to be members. This was just hoping that they would come and they really wanted to wow them. When Tom Cruz was trying to win over Nicole Kidman, he did something very similar. Again, thanks to the US taxpayers and taxexempt money, he had this other Scientology facility spend all this money and make all these enhancements and do all this crazy stuff in hopes that, you know, it would score some points. Thankfully, the Beckhams were smart enough to keep their distance from Scientology, and they never even set foot at the Gold Coast. Hi guys, editing Ash here again. Just two quick things that I forgot to mention about Will Smith and Tom Cruz's relationship and that's that one they do collaborate on each other's projects all of the time and this goes uncredited or you know they it's not something like official that they do but this has been going on for years and years and years all the way back I think the first time that they ever spoke about it was when Will Smith spoke about Tom Cruz being very involved with I legend, especially with the script and whenever they were in pre-production and kind of ironing out like what they wanted the movie to be and what direction and the drafts and everything like that. And I also heard that Tom Cruz was one of the people who really was staunchly against the other ending and he wanted the ending that they ended up putting at the end of I am Legend. But a lot of people who've seen both endings, the other ending is on the DVD, and you can find it on YouTube, too. I'll I'll link it in the sources, but most people, including myself, think that they should have gone with the other ending. So, take that for what you will. But the second thing is not to do with work. It's a bit more personal. And this was actually mentioned, or some of the details were mentioned in Leah Remeny's book, Troublemaker. This was when she was invited to one of Tom Cruz's like very very exclusive exclusive gatherings and only the top of the top celebrity scientologists get invited to this. Allegedly Will and Jada Smith are always present at these events. And according to Leo Remany, they ended up playing hide and seek and Leah did not want to partake. So Tom and David Muscavage weren't very happy with her. When you read this in Leah's book, it sounds very PG and very just kind of weird that they're playing hide-and-seek, but just they're playing hide-and-seek, but I have heard that it was a bit more rated R hideand seek and allegedly rated R hide-and-seek. So I think either way it's it's kind of weird. Jada Smith did try and come up with an excuse about why they were playing hide-and-seek and she was saying, "Oh, well, Tom loves kids and he was playing with kids." Even though this was a celebrity scientologist event at night that no kids were present at. And I just always think it's it's funny when celebrities try and come up with these excuses that if you think for like one second that they make no sense. Anyway, those were two relevant, pertinent little bits of information that we can all picture Tom Cruz and Will Smith playing hideand- seek. And I don't know, maybe this was what South Park was referencing, amongst other things, when they did the episode where they had Tom Cruz in a closet. Maybe they'd heard about the hideand-seek, too. There are so many celebrities Scientology has tried to recruit over the years using their biggest celebrities. They wanted Juliet Lewis to bring in Brad Pitt and so many others as usually they will use whoever the celebrity Scientologist is dating or projects that they're working on. They see it as just an opportunity for Scientology like Laura Preon and Chris Masterson. Danny introduced her and brought her in and then they were able to use them as a couple. There are also celebrities who get in and get out like John Stamos. He didn't last long at all. Then there's people like John Travolta and Kirsty Ally. They're in it and make the mistake of telling Scientology their deepest darkest secrets. They also get all wrapped up in finances. Like John Travolta has two massive jets sitting at his house. But Scientology will also do a lot of their dirty work and clean up a lot of their messes. But then they have that blackmail material on them. And with John Travolta in particular, he had a string of accusations surrounding him after many massers complained about his inappropriate touching and groping. And of course, look at Danny Masterson. Scientology did literally bury and hide his horrendous crimes for decades. And thankfully that has all now come to light. And I'm hoping through the civil trial in September that even more comes out and Scientology has to pay for at least monetarily what they've done. And the fact that Danny Masterson is still not being declared a suppressive person, that he is still a Scientologist in good standing, just shows you how Scientology cares about nothing else but celebrities. They don't want the other Mastersons to leave. His brother Chris Masterson, who Malcolm in the Middle is going to be returning soon. His sister Alana Mastersonson was in The Walking Dead and she's also best friends with Hillary Duff. Hillary Duff also dated Danny Mastersonson's other brother Jordan Masterson. And Jordan Masterson is frequently seen still to this day with Ashton Kutcher and Maunis. people that have a lot of name recognition, a lot of power, a lot of money, and is another celebrity relationship that Scientology wants to foster. Many of these celebrities, be it they are actual members or just entangled with Scientology, remain loyal to Scientology. And they absolutely all try to downplay their involvement and also try to make Scientology look as appealing as possible. Look like this cool open relaxed church with celebrity connections. Oh, people will think maybe I'll check out a meeting. Look, all these celebrities are there. Oh, I wonder if it could help me. What do I have to lose? when really Scientology has done horrendous horrendous things in my opinion and I just hope that these celebrities are not able to lure anyone in. Please let me know all your opinions on these celebrities Scientology and especially let me know what you think Elizabeth Moss has going on with Handmaid's Tale and Scientology. Very curious to hear what people think about that. If you made it to the end of this video, thank you so much for watching. Leave MVP below so I can personally thank you.
