Katie holmes has to be brainwashed,there is no other explanation. Tom Cruise is an upper level Thetan in the Scientology church. Therefore he believes that he is a God himself.
Here is just part of an interview.

Quote:
"We are the authorities on getting people off drugs, we are the authorities on the mind, we are the authorities on improving conditions... we can rehabilitate criminals.

"Traveling the world and meeting the people that I’ve met, talking with these leaders in various fields, they want help and they are depending on people who know and who can be effective and do it and that’s us. That is our responsibility to do that.



That "religion " also shuns homosexuals and believes women are second class citizens. They have no qualms about taking tons of your money and having you basically sign your life over. He is batshit. When he made that statement dismissing PPD I could have rattled him . Just how many kids has he had or ever will have?

Wow !! That is really something Shocked I don't follow his career or him at all. I have only seen a few of his movies. I never got why he was "like the biggest movie star in the world" or why Rosie loved him so. I have seen him at events were he is so gracious with his fans and spends a lot of time with them, which I think is really nice. I know he has said a few crazy things. John Travolta also seems like a very sweet man. I do not know all that much about Scientology. Sounds pretty strange. I don't know if Katie has been brainwashed. Tom was her childhood celebrity crush and she dreamed of marrying him. I think it is possible she truly loves him. It is unfortunate that their beliefs are anti-gay. I wouldn't think this would be a popular sentiment in Hollywood, and yet there are many stars that are Scientologists. I would think others would not be pleased about that. I am surprised that several strong women in Hollywood would be a part of a religion that considers them second class. The ones I know of that are seem extremely strong, outspoken, independent, and driven.


Next year's season may be messed up too Crying or Very sad

Quote:
Four major studios have canceled dozens of writers' contracts in a possible concession that the current television season cannot be saved, the Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday.

The move means the 2-month old writers strike may also endanger next season's new shows, the Times said.

January is usually the beginning of pilot season, when networks order new scripted shows. But the strike leaves networks without a pool of comedy and drama scripts from which to choose.

20th Century Fox Television, CBS Paramount Network Television, NBC Universal and Warner Bros. Television told the Times they have terminated development and production agreements.
Studios typically pay $500,000 to $2 million a year per writer for them and their staffs to develop new show concepts.

"I didn't see it coming," Barbara Hall, a writer and producer whose credits include former CBS series "Joan of Arcadia" and "Judging Amy," told the Times, which said ABC executives gave her the news Friday. "I am not entirely sure what their strategy is, all I know was that I was a casualty of it."

The newspaper said more than 65 deals with writers have been eliminated since Friday.

I just read on ONTD that the writers plan to picket The Grammys (not sure why, I mean does somebody actually write that crappy banter Razz ) in hopes that they can do to the Grammys what they did to The Globes Crying or Very sad That would be a shame. The Grammys can be a lot of fun!

Well yes, highly paid writers write that crap. ANd i do agree it is crap.

BUT, the writers are really not looking to do to them what they did to the globes, the writers are trying to get a contract that pays them for the shows we watch for free on the web, that are funded by advertising we have to watch.

Oh, I know they are looking to get their contract (and I hope they do soon) I just mean if they know they can get the show shut down it will help their cause. I would think at some point the networks would be tired of losing these award shows that bring in good ad $$.

I knew writers really wrote the banter, but for the most part it is awful and awkward for the celebs. The jokes almost always bomb. Not sure why. I almost think ad-libbing would be better. Almost Razz

That is nice that they are not going to picket the SAGs because the actors have been very supportive of the writers situation!

On the list of people exhibiting bizarre behavior, Alec's phone call to his kid can be considered minor. When I first heard it, I was steaming mad, but when I realized that Kim (whom I love) probably leaked it and that it was a PRIVATE phone call and he was just pushed to the limit, then I understand some more. I agree with Frazz that his politics, along with Clooney and Babs are garden-variety democrat.

Vince Vaughn, Kurt Russell and Gary Sinise? Republicans? Sigh. Still, like Frazz says, I'll still watch their movies and TV shows. You can also heap Bruce Willis onto that pile.

I also agree with Frazz about Tom Cruise. His "religion" is a legitimized cult. By "legitimized" I mean that stars who are a part of the "religion" have thrown stacks of money at it. That's a damn shame.

I am glad that at least one awards show will be shown. I'm sure it'll get a good turnout due to the more prominent ones being canceled.

That video with Tom C made me sick. And its sad for me to think of John Travolta being a part of this "religion" too. I've never been a real fan of TC; I always wondered how he made it as big as he did. His ego seems so large and it really comes across in that vid.

I actually like JT . I think Tom Cruise is brainwashed in addition to being delusional. But I am sure he has thrown so much money at that church they reinforce what he thinks of himself.

Travolta doesn't try to convince the entire universe that he knows all and that anybody who thinks otherwise is just plain wrong.

Plus Travolta has turned out to be a very fun and ambitious actor, from pulp Fiction to Primary Colors to Hairspray.
