I don't go to the movies much anymore I only see maybe two to three movies a year and no I did not see any of his movies in the movies I do have one of his recent movies recently on DVD but I haven't watched it yet so not sure when I will
I cannot feel sympathy for someone that signed a billion year contract and therefore has to call Tom Cruise “Sir” and do what he says. 😅 I’d still watch his movies if I liked them.
@@carbine090909 …..ahem …… umm , are you aware of Nichole’s background? Who her father was? The rumors surrounding her father? You’ll see there is some very “gray” area in there …….
As a dad to a daughter myself, once I heard Cruise ditched his kid for his cult I'd heard all I need to. I will never understand how a dad could turn his back on his little girl.
I can't help myself but to have a little belly laugh when Nicole Kidman was asked ''so what's life like after Tom Cruise?' She replied ''well I can wear my high heels again now''
A person should never judge an actor by the character they play. Tom Cruises is definitely no top gun when it comes to character, integrity and personality and intelligence.
People don't care that he's an awful employer or person. Just like the cult, it's mostly an American problem. If only he paid what he really owed. the taxes on his income are paid, the free services delivered by slaves of the church aren't. Hiding and selling his niece aren't exactly what a good man does. His cutie cutie wife knew that. More to the point, her father knew.
Cruise is imo a genuine psycho,, that little demonstration with Matt Lauer was really indicative of his state of mind... The Slop Gun acting like he's the first person to discover that Ritalin actually has a street value... THE MAN'S A GENIUS, slap a cap with a tassel on his head and slip that PhD into his back pocket the man's a master of the obvious, which wouldn't be so bad but Cruise is acting like he's educating the whole world or something.... This happens all the time with people who got a lot of money while not actually doing anything for it.. and that absolutely idiotic challenging stare he was giving Matt during his whole instructional monologue,, the only other person I've seen do that kind of psycho stuff with interviewers is Steven Seagull...
@@micnorton9487 the movie is rather laughable for those who served in the Navy in California. Cruise would have been kicked out of the military when the movie was made,for being under the suspicion of being gay. He is so weak and weird as a person, the movie Top Gun inflated his ego and turned him into a cult monster. His narcissism is on full display everywhere he goes along with his stupidity and weirdness.
He's the guy that tells you,you're a total assh*le..and,legit,expects you to stop and say "Oh my,THANK YOU,you are absolutely right 💯 thanks for letting me know"!!
@@katmack4215 Trump and his cult followers are without a country and are despised by the majority of Americans. You must take their aggressive multitude of weaknesses as strength. They’re cowards.
RU serious ? Any kid in Europe since the early 80s has been warned away from this cult, that's been condemned over and over. Americans can't give a shit.They cared more about nutjobs than minorities.. appeal in european court way later. Check their record. For real. Or brag about how your ways are the only laws that count. deal with the consequences. Those lovely people sit on 3.5 Billions and for sure intend to good. Obviously. tom cruise will open the pacific sea or something if needed..Or not.
@@bridobrien7483 They make her life a nightmare. Anyone around her is a target. She doesn't want that, even if some want to help and are ready for hell on wheels..They need to stay strong on the outside of that big fart problem.
Yeah Leah is okay for getting out and her concern for David Miscarriage's absent wife imo was genuine HOWEVER she's still actually a scientologist... She said it's taught her a lot of good life lessons and I can understand that HOWEVER,, the whole thing was invented by a lunatic who wrote bad science fiction stories and never had an honest job in his life and focused his whole being on scamming people... I also believe that in a way psychiatry as a profession is more about making money and expanding their business by basically making stuff up,, social anxiety disorder? I would call it just another dimension of uncomfortable normalcy,, but these people want to fill people with drugs for all kinds of things that ordinarily would be treated with counseling .. The sort of a thing is kind of like the prison industrial complex, trying different ways of making more money on a sector of society that one generally does not want to see growing.... A lobbying group named ALEC,, American legal exchange council,, for instance, lobby lawmakers for stiff sentences for drugs and just about everything else, "necessitating" long prison terms in for-profit prisons that is of course all paid for by the taxpayer while still sleazing profit off of commercial enterprises that operate inside the prison itself,, usually some sort of small industry or even customer service for online and telephone...
Leah did a fantastic job, but I knew they used brain washing techniques. They tried to brainwash my 14 year old daughter who was taken to an orientation by a friend. Being of average intelligence, when my daughter told me they wouldn't let her go to the bathroom, eat or even drink water for four hours of orientation, I forbid her to return. I explained they were using brainwashing techniques. and she understood, so that was that. Easy peasy. Then I did research L. Ron Hubbard, and it was an eye opener. Tom Cruz is an absolute idiot!!!
I honestly don't even understand at all why Tom Cruise has been regarded as highly as he has been/is in Hollywood. He's primarily a one note actor, even in his "golden" acting years. Not terrible in any sense, but not at all as legendary as he's made out to be. Put him in a film (or literally just one scene) with Daniel Day Lewis, Anthony Hopkins, Leonardo DiCaprio, ADRIEN BRODY... he couldn't hold a candle
Absolutely ! he was promising, not groudbreaking when he was young. He stopped "acting" long ago. Became an action figure in blockbusters, The only good franchise he can cherish is Mission-Impossible, no thanks to him..just wait 10 years and Simon Pegg will be hilar ious as ever at narrating the experience with a step back. if HE can't, Ricky Gervais will..you gotta love the British spirit. They make room for all kinds of humour and "all public" shows. they don't care about PC because they're not nasty to begin with..They cuddle little sociopaths too ever since they stopped beating their buttocks..(late 90s) but the English education provided generations of gentlemen.. Not that the king himself was too happy about it.. Somehow OO7, will always be the measure in most hearts. as will be the acclaimed actors of the series mission impossible. They made us believe in crazy plots with very little budget.
@@nichellepeters5195 none of us are. He's become a one -trick pony as acting goes and scum as person long ago. Do I want to see the end of his Mission Impossible, yes. Do I want him to pay for reparations for illegal work, YES I DO ! The whole nine yards, top to bottom, car love included. I don't know about the US, but employing people without lawful contracts equals to a full job with full benefits in Europe. Okay if the Church clocked the hours, and vaporized taxes..let's check their status..and ask their people their tax return
When I heard all the crap spewed from Cruise mouth about Brooke Shields and her postpartum symptoms aren’t a real thing, angered me deeply! That says all I needed to know about his character!
After Tom attempted to smear Brooke Shields, she was preforming in a play. She invited tom publicly to come and see the show, and to bring a date. She said, "just ask for two tickets at the door, for one adult and one child. I loved it. She is so much more intelligent then tom with his crazy ramblings.
He didn't say she wasn't depressed, he said we are overmedicated and that the meds do not work. It has now been proven those meds do not work for depression.
I watched Leah Remini’s shows on TV with her guests-all those stories of people who have left and how they were treated-unbelievable. She did a great job.
But she didn't prove anything. She just talks about other people's business. No proof. You were in this too.what did they hide for you. And your money helped them to be able to do what they did.
Leah also talked about how awful Tom treats his staff in that cult. The story she told, that she actually witnessed, was terrible. I don't understand how people can worship him like they do just because he's in movies.
Claire Headley is so poised and articulate in this interview. She comes across as direct and honest. It is too bad that she went through so many years of nonsense with this destructive cult. But she is so fortunate to have escaped from it, and I think it is her intelligence that helped her do that. I am very impressed.
I had a cousin that lived in the center in Los Angeles, she was sent to Toms home to refinish some type of woodwork. She refused to go back after the 2nd day, Tom had her sent to the Reformation center in Florida. She was there for 13 days and was forced to do labor with only 1 meal per day and was not allowed to speak to anyone, not allowed to bathe and had to sleep on a concrete floor with no pillow or blanket. She told me this info when I pick her up for her fathers funeral. I was followed to my home and for the 3 days she stayed at my home there was a car parked down the road. The car went away after I returned her to LA. She apparently married a guy that was security in the center. They apparently fled to the East Coast and are still living under different identities to this day. That cult is scary.
@@catlady6938 Hi there.Well 'from what i've heard and seen' Keanu is a rather grounded compassionate human being which kinda makes him seem disarmingly loveable . How can i ignore this?it's rare in the egocentric world of celebrities.The really great and balanced people are usually simple and have a 'friendly ability' (as my cousin Chris once noted)
@@alexioverdo5225 Yes we need more Canadian actors like Keanu, Ryan for example. to step up and be the role models we need.....not bieber as he's in a cult but real good people to drown out the narcissists and abusers.
I’ve met two men who claimed to have had sex with….let’s call him “Todd” Cruise. The first is a very normal guy I hung out with socially many times over the 32 years I’ve lived in Chicago. He’s well liked and regarded as honest. He also doesn’t draw attention to himself or tell outlandish stories. The second person I only met twice for short periods of time, therefore, I don’t know much about his reputation or honesty. The two men don’t know each other, and have never met to my knowledge. But here is what is interesting to me. Their short stories about the sexual encounters with TC were nearly identical. For example, he was looking for a specific physical trait in his sex partners. You don’t need your imagination hat to figure this one out. Also, the settings were the same. The first was at a large fundraising type cocktail event. And the second was also a cocktail event, but it was one that the second guy was working at as part of the catering team. Both said that he took the same position sexually and insisted on safety. Both indicated that he was extremely short in stature in person and wore a baseball cap pulled low to conceal his identity. And finally, it was a very one and done thing with little or no exchange of info or conversation. The reason I bring it up is that I just found it very interesting how the church of Scientology conceals the sexual orientation of several of its megastar members and I’m guessing is the selling point for some of these people to get involved with the church in the first place. Also, Amazing is the elaborate way that they create these marriage relationships for these men and carefully craft their public image as that of a straight hunk. The one that I always found hysterical is when Rosie O’Donnell would publicly swoon over Tom Cruise and make a big deal out of her huge attraction to him especially on her TV show before she ever came out. What a bunch of horse s***. The only interest Rosie O’Donnell ever had in Tom Cruise was maybe to arm wrestle him. Finally, I will say that coming out is an extremely difficult thing to do no matter how old a person is and no matter how self confident they appear. It is also supposed to be a very private decision and left up to the person that is dealing with it, so I didn’t want to make fun of that issue, but deciding not to come out and deliberately constructing the opposite message, always struck me as being extremely hypocritical.
I read Rob Lowe's book, and although he didn't say anything overtly bad about working with Tom Cruise, he did recount a story about him being laser focused on his role, and being in character at all times during filming. I'm completely paraphrasing, and it's been a long time since I read it. Basically, he said he couldn't hang out while they were filming different movies in the same city because he was "Joe" or whatever character he was playing, not Tom. From all of the different comments about Cruise by various people, he sounds like a narcissistic control freak. I'm also guessing that his exes had to sign ironclad non disclosure agreements when they divorced because none of them ever say anything about him. He gives me a bad feeling because he looks similar to my ex who was a major control freak and nearly destroyed me.
I remember that part of the book… something about Cruise phoning his agent wanting a separate room to the others or to be moved to a different hotel. Basically special treatment when he was still an unknown.
Alot of actors are reported to stay in character to bring realism to the screen some study real life characters being portrayed in films and stay in character also while not on set every one uses the tools they need to pull off the expected no big deals...
Hello from the South of France, At the beginning of the 90s, while I was working in Paris (I was born there), the "Scientologists" tried to establish themselves in France. Their method of recruiting was quite vicious since they distributed flyers at the exit of the subway entrances in the form of an IQ test where it was mentioned nowhere that it was Scientology. Once it was completed, it was enough to contact a telephone number to obtain the test results. I remember at the time I called that number for the results. I was then given an appointment the same evening at an address in Batignolles (in the 9ᵉ arrondissement of Paris). I had gone there without suspecting more than that because I had been confirmed by telephone that everything was free. When I arrived at the address, I realized there was a problem. The building where I had an appointment seemed to be an old restored church, and more importantly, was inscribed in full, "Church of Scientology." I immediately understood that there was a problem. However, I went to the appointment anyway because I was curious and amused to see how they would try to sell me sales pitches. I did not wait once I entered the premises. A person immediately brought me to an office where a man took care of me. He told me that my tests were excellent but wanted me to pass others. Before that, he offered to watch a movie and took me to a room specially equipped for this purpose. A large screen and row of seats were identical to those in a movie theater. The film told the life of the aviator Ron Hubbard who later became a science fiction author and developed a revolutionary method to surpass himself humanly. After the film, I returned to my interlocutor, accompanied by a young woman who had looked after me before and after the screening. Everything seemed to be settled like clockwork. There, I was made to retake tests which, after analysis, showed my strengths and weaknesses. I listened to all this with great amusement. Until someone offered to sell me Ron Hubbard's book. I declined the offer despite the insistence of my interlocutor, who wanted to be persuasive. From there, the phone calls multiplied. They kept calling to invite me to come back and buy the book. I got angry and threatened to file a harassment complaint if they kept calling me. So, they finally gave up. A few years later, the Church of Scientology found itself in court (1995), was condemned for fraud in an organized gang, and declared an undesirable sect with a ban on practicing on the territory by the French authorities. Peace, folks. ☮😉
Very similar in Australia. I was very young then. And I was super busy looking for work, and therefore I did not have time to follow up. I guess I was lucky.
hahahahaha I had forgotten about that part, YES you are ASSIGNED someone to follow you and be with you at all times. my brother was a contractor and he said even to do his work on site, they "ASSIGNED YOU SOMEONE" TO BE WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES. probably because they fear investigations and anyone talking inside the cult to you or any outsider. I swear this is true.
Watching, reading and living near Clearwater Florida it truly amazes me how so many intelligent individuals can think that this cult makes sense. It’s as if the part of the brain that holds any type of common sense is totally removed. I’m so glad these folks are exposing their experiences with the world and how corrupt city officials and law enforcements are because of the Scientology payoffs…
Exactly - the scientology thing is enough for me, he disgusts me. And yes, he is such a narcissist. I really don't care one bit about his age. Would never go watch one of his movies.
Mainstream media will never ask him anything about scientology. He wont do interviews otherwise. He is a cashcow for them and Hollywood hes so protected . I respect all that have escaped you guys bring me hope that we can all free ourselves. The truth will out..just not with him too many systems sheltering him
My sister listened in to a phone call Tom made to paramount publicity dept. Rudest man, disrespectful too. Ungrateful,conceted, delusional abandoned his own daughter for a cult.
I worked in Paramount’s Motion Picture Distribution 1986 to 1997. I was ordered to report to the commissary to be part of a pandering studio clack as (midget - no more than 5’5” in heels) Cruise was given a $300,000 Mercedes by Sherry Lansing, then head of production. Quite a bizarre photo op fiasco. Production couldn’t find anyone who cared about him. We had nothing to do with the guy but we had to pretend we deified him. I did have to cope with his sister, tho. The entitlement was appalling. I had to blind call some tiny theater in the Midwest to have six seats for the premiere of Mission Impossible roped off for her. Imagine me calling some poor ticket taker and convincing them I was calling from Paramount in Hollywood to demand that they lose the profit of those seats on opening night for the benefit of egotists - who never even showed up. I did it but I lost all respect for Hollywood by working in it for 30 years. God bless Far West TX! 🤣
@@amybarlow3045 Seriously. All these people saying he abandoned his daughter should stop and think how people raised by narcissistic, sociopathic, abusive parents turn out. The girl has a chance to be a decent human being and not a zombie.
I literally have a feeling of loathing when I see a picture of him. I am sure he is a true narcissist. Not a big surprise how powerful he is in Scientology.
even tarot readers and star sign analysts agree he is pure evil and born with all the luck of a devil. bet he can play a fiddle till it catches fire too. when i squint my eyes and look at his image i swear i can see some horns and a trident in the back. never watched any of his movies, just the first time he appeared in his first blockbuster I disliked that face so much that I turned it off. the unicorn was more convincing to be real than that slob actor with his carpet face and evil eyes.
Pray? If you mean just hope then fine but if you're saying pray to the god of one of the abrahamic cults then you need to consider deconversion therapy.
I haven’t watched a Tom Cruise movie since Lawrence Wright’s book Going Clear was published. Before the documentary, before Leah and her shows. The book detailed how Scientology traffics humans and many work on TC properties or vehicles. He participated in the abuse as Leah detailed what she saw first hand at his home. Also in Leah’s fantastic book, when she found Suri who was an infant crying on the bathroom floor at Tom and Katie’s wedding reception and Tom’s sister and other Scientologists were standing around doing nothing. Leah stormed into the kitchen and got her a bottle and demanded that they feed her. They treat babies as adults in babies’ bodies, their thetan isn’t a baby. It’s child abuse! I was so happy when Katie got away. She saw what happened to Nicole and her kids and luckily has a father who is a family law attorney. I was ecstatic when they blindsided TC and Scientology!
I remember back in the 80's when that movie of his can't remember the name, he was a fighter pilot. I started to watch it never saw any movie of his before, but when I started watching I had to stop, he gave me the creeps. There was something bad that I saw in him znd could not stand him now I can't even look at a picture of him, he is Satanic.
@@aliiljah8224 My Dad was a pilot, I love flying so I went to see it. I didn't like Cruise at all, just something that put me off. I liked Val Kilmer way better in that movie. Never paid a penny for or watched anything he was in since. I've misjudged people in my life, but I was right that time.
To be honest I used to like Tom cruise and understood sometimes how they acted due to always being under the line light although that’s the spot they put themself in. I loved movies and actors for their talent but as I can honestly say I was blinded all these years as many were/are not knowing that it’s not the spotlight but the evil and he desire of fame that is within them and that stems from them giving it all for satan and not their own merit! Love it while you have it Tom Cruise cause God is coming to judge and put you all in their rightful place!! Praise God🙏🏽😂
I was done with Tom Cruise when he attacked Brooke Shields comments about postpartum depression. Then completely done when he jumped on the couch over Katie.
@@Peekaboo-KittyI think she must be thinking "Derpfake" is Tom Cruise when it's an impersonator who does all these crazy stunts. He's actually hilarious to me!
I have to agree, I liked the movie, The Firm in lots of ways due to many of the other actors in it but TC had some scenes and he is so fake with being a loving person in scenes with his movie wife. fake emotions. other than TC, I liked the movie a lot!
Back in 1988 in Oslo, Norway(I was only 18),- Me & Bente,- my bf at the time,- where walking down Carl Johans street(The Main Street in Oslo) when we met this guy whom asked us to joinhim back at this office to do some "personality tests". They separate us, took me in to a space on the ground floor. After an hour or so, discussing me and the "test",- I exploded in anger. This didn't make any sense to me at all. I stood up, found the door LOCKED, unlocked it and started shouting for my friend. I ran around and up to the second floor where I did find her in another Locked office space. She was heartbroken in TEARS!!! I grabbed her and dragged her out of there. Shouted back to them: " Leave us alone you guys are insane. They tried halfheartedly to stop me, but my mind was made up. We was on our way out of there and we never looked back. She thanked me,- cause they had broken her in ONE hour. OMG. I'm so thankful to this day and keep warning everyone I meet about this. Puh... Thanks for reading my story.
I understand this is about Tom as a powerful celebrity, however I'm disgusted that more hasn't been done to this organization by authorities. Glad his daughter is away from the cult.
MysticStealth • I think Katy Holmes, his ex, his daughter's mother, left Scientology right after their divorce? So I don't think her daughter is in it. Nicole Kidman comes from a family of very powerful witches and warlocks. Well known for their occult practices. She also joined Scientology. I don't know if she still practices it or not. But clearly CULT was in her genes.
This cult use to pay taxes. They harrassed and threatened the government to a point that they were cosidered a church and have paid no taxes since. They threaten monetary and physical damage to get their way!
seems they were called in to investigate the "leaders" missing wife and left after a few hours, closing the investigation......uh, can you say, "pay off"?
the cult is KNOWN for having authorities (lapd), politicians (to many to list) in their pocket... paid off and/or blackmailed (like the irs for example)...
@@JustMe-uu3bh the lieutenant Dawson in charge of the "case' in his spare time actually gave speeches about scientology! When Leah Remini who started the missing persons charge asked to see the information of the "investigation" she was told it was private. Then she was told the paperwork would take a few weeks and she would then be able to have it. Turns out this has been years now and Remini never did get any information/paperwork on the case, she was only told they met Shelley, the wife, and she's fine. She has not been seen in public for over 16 years and counting! Yeah, quite normal for the wife of a "religion's leader" who was anywhere and everywhere to (the lie that is told) suddenly doesn't want to go out in public EVER for ANY event for their "religion" and is happy happy happy working working working KSW (keep scientology working) 24/7! Yeah, sounds totally plausible and normal! It is highly suspected that she is being held at their very private compound in Lake Arrowhead, California. And Cruise presumably friends with her since you know she is the wife of his "best friend" the leader, seemingly doesn't care or question this? REALLY??? Imagine being "best friends" with a person and you haven't seen that person's wife in years and years, wouldn't any sane normal person wonder what the you know what is going on?? So Cruise is also guilty for this as well along with the other enabling of the abuse...
Thank you very much for this very interesting episode! I have never seen a movie with Tom Cruise, have always seen him as creepy and weird. Now it emerged here that he is also malicious.
A few years ago I read an interview with someone who’s known Cruise since the early years, but has grown distant over the past couple of decades. He was asked which of Cruise’s movie roles most accurately reflects the real Cruise, and he said Frank TJ Mackey, from the movie Magnolia. That alone is pretty damning.
I’ve never really cared for Tom Cruise and we’re the same age, there are so many more interesting leading men in celebrity world that far surpasses Toms acting ability as well as his so called good looks. So, so, thankful that Nicole and Katy got away from this toxic manipulative man.
I am the same age as him as well and never liked him. He is like a brainwashed robot. Give me Matthew McConaughey any day. Now that's a handsome, charming, sexy, real man.
He is the least interesting, for want of a better word, man, that I have ever had the unfortunate task of hunting frenziedly for my remote control to get rid of him. I would not want my pleasant little cottage contaminated by him.
When I saw him in Interview With A Vampire, especially the fake piano-playing scene, I realized he had no talent whatsoever; and SO full of himself. Nauseating.
I so totally agree. It is the same with Travolta. He is a scumbag and his looks distract from his evil self centered personality...there are and were more talented down to earth actors from that period...like the dude from the die hard movies...
I can’t believe the issue of where is Shelley Miscavage did not come up in your interview. She was the high priestess of Scientology, and has totally disappeared so I would like to know what happened to her.
About 20-25 years ago, our family went to Disney … not sure why, but we chose to stay in Clearwater, FL … while the beach was absolutely gorgeous, the town itself seemed like a movie set .. I can’t recall a specific example because the overall vibe was off … it was immaculate and super orderly but in a prefabricated kind of way …. years later I found out Clearwater is the headquarters for Scientology and that trip immediately came to mind … it all made so much sense .. you’d think the enormous foreboding blue building would’ve been a clue lol 😂
My mom thinks I'm crazy for boycotting the Newest Mission Impossible. I told her I'll never watch another Tom Cruise movie in my life. Not until Scientology is no longer a thing.
I stopped watching anything he was involved in after learning about his affiliation with Scientology. I've done the same with Juliette Lewis after watching her use "the tone" on a reporter - she is batshyt.
This is the first time I hear the details of rumours surrounding him and I am not surprised. There is something about him that says control freak, keeping lots of secrets, manipulative, obsessive authoritarian and only shows one side of him how professional he is and kind to people when the reality is much darker. He is so well guarded that I don't think we will ever know the true extent of it
Just watched Claire on Leah's channel, with Mike Ryder, recounting what they experienced with the chief of LAPD police and embedded scientology influence. Excellent interview by Leah.
@@tammyharless8009 really? didn't know that. Perhaps he was and left? I looked up and only thing I get is that he is a Buddhist. This would be very disappointing.
“You don't get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion. “ Ron L Hubbard's response to a question from the audience during a meeting of the Eastern Science Fiction Association on (7 November 1948), as quoted in a 1994 affidavit by Sam Moskowitz.
Exactly! L. Ron Hubbard, according to his son, said that he and his friend sat down and contrived a plan to start a religion - - - for the sole purpose to making money. Hubbard abused his wife, threatened to kill her if she left him, he physically abused his members, etc. He was a major dick!!!
I never particularly cared for Tom Cruise as an actor,but after reading Leah Remini’s autobiography,I came to the conclusion that Mr.Cruise is a malignant narcissist and a severely deluded sad person.
I worked for Scientology when I was 22 years old And could never understand how anyone could be sucked into this 💩. They tried to get me but I wouldn’t go for it.
@@buddygrimfield7954 had not heard that you had to join them to be an employee. They were more than keen to have me as their employee and I had answered an advertisement in the Columbus dispatch newspaper. I was only 22 years old and it was 1988 and the ad said it was for the church of Scientology and silly me thought it was an actual church. They really wanted my repro skills as it wasn’t that common back then. I had a lot of print work experience. After I started working for them, they were paying me in “credits “which was nothing but BS for not really anything, and let’s try and keep as much of that as we can by getting you to buy our junk. the only thing I got from them was a book because I felt sorry for the poor guy who kept trying to get me to buy something and I said well I’ll check it out and I bought the book and it was stupid. Who in their right mind is going to think sci-fi is real in the case that they had was ridiculous. It was all aliens and garbage, and really stupid. They had an office that they kept in pristine condition and had photographs of L Ron Hubbard and his wife on the walls and on the desk and I remember the door had a frosted glass from the middle part of the door to the top. The rest of the door was white. Kind of reminded me of the old fashion doors that she was seeing the doctors office from the 40s 50s and so forth. I was told that they kept the office ready to go so when L Ron Hubbard got there and he could be there at any time that it was all set for him. I didn’t find out so many years later that L Ron Hubbard died in 1985. Like I said it looks stupid. The whole thing seems stupid in like a gimmick to me and I didn’t last of the job because I didn’t like being screwed around. I was a young mother and I didn’t have time for their mess. It definitely had a cold feeling to it. Their eyes were glazed over and they were just strange. My immediate boss seemed like an old hippie really. But now I don’t know that you ever had to be a member of the church to work for them. I don’t think they had any problem, screwing anybody out of money. Hope that helps. That’s pretty much what I know.
@@buddygrimfield7954 oh yeah, another thing you might be interested in. They had a poor fella working there and he might’ve been 25. Very nice soft-spoken guy. He’s the one that convinced me to buy one of their books and he worked in their library of all things if that’s what you wanna call it. Selling all of their crap. He worked there for free. And he had to live in the YMCA because he was homeless. Really take care of their people don’t they?
I was really liking the health guru Dr Berg until I caught a random video of his grown son who talked about his escape from scientology and said that his father was a scientologist. His sons name is Ethan or something, very humble and authentic. Their voices sound the same. You never know which youtubers are funding their church cults 😐
Same-same….love Dr Berg’s son, Ian Rafalko. ❤️❤️ He seems so sincere. Apparently Dr Berg, behind the scenes, makes fun of people who buy his products because he knows they don’t work. According to Ian, his dad thinks people are gullible and he is happy to make money off their stupidity and would often brag about it.😡😡 Dr Berg is nothing but a grifter.
Oh my, that’s a real eye opener to me. I think Dr Berg is clever. but some times over the top. And he’s certainly a sales man. I’ve never bought his product. I’ll now think twice about watching him. One never knows 🤷♀️ I will watch what he’s son has to say.
I’m shocked. I watch Dr Berg sometimes. I always thought there was something a bit off with him and could never fully decide if he was a bit of a fraud. This explains a lot knowing he is a Scientologist.
I worked in a room with about ½ a dozen other people for 6 years. One guy was a former Scientologist. He had worked there for a few years when I was hired. Later they hired a guy that was a former Mormon. They had this game they would play, "My cult, was worse than your cult." They would compete and the rest of us would score. They were in a dead heat for 3 years. When I got a new job, my last request from my supervisor was, "replace me with an ex Jehovah's Witness, those guys need somebody new to commiserate with." Honestly, I think those 2 guy becoming friends was the best thing that could have happened to either of them. The rest of us couldn't believe what they had been through. The things they said were so bizarre to us. Yet, it was completely normal in their old life. If you are miserable, do what you have to in order to initiate positive change. Positive is the key word.
As a "mormon" I laugh at these stupidities :D Yeah yeah - I know, brain washed and so on. I say you guys are brain washed by too much YT videos. I was in LDS 20 years and never seen anything of all these idiotic stories spread by "ex-mormons". But feel free to spread these urban legends so I can laugh a bit more. These are so ridiculous :D
I was raised as a Jehovah's witness kid in a elders family and never believed any of it. But that religion is not based on bilking people of money just teach them their biblical theories. Of course there is hypocrisy in the religion as are all religions. Catholicism is one of the worst and people just ignore all that. It is full of lies and to me just as disgusting as Scientology. Power, money and deception, lies, manipulating, deception is what is Catholicism.
Isn't it possible David Miscavige and Tom Cruise are lovers and just blatant charlatans and the reason Shelley Miscavage is missing is because she found out? That's the vibe I always get from the two of them.
Is Shelley Miscavige ( David’s wife) still missing? Her Wikipedia page has her as missing for 16 years and 18 days! She hasn’t been seen in public since 2007! Some claim she is being held against her will. The police need to insist on having eyes on her just to confirmed she’s still alive.
Absolutely NOT. I had an experience when he was filming of 4th of July on the SMU campus in Dallas, Texas. Not only is he "tiny" and obviously suffers from "Short Man Syndrome" and 100% a Narcissist, but he is only friendly or polite when it might benefit him. He was very friendly to a 19yr old SMU student who was with me and my 10yr old daughter. The older was a gorgeous young lady so he was all smiles and happy to speak to her but would not say anything to my daughter, not even an autograph. I'm not going into this any deeper...he's not worth the time or the upset caused by his rudeness. He is not well and certainly not a good person. The girls did talk about how my 10yr old was almost as tall as he was...that made my daughter feel better and we all laughed all the way back home.
I am sure you know what your talking about. In my town we have a fair...quite large. I worked at a hotel across the street. Singers would come and sing...some stay at the hotel. Billy Ray Cyrus stated at the hotel. Rude and somewhat mean. He wouldn't even agree to toss a football out to the group. He lost supporter's that day...like he could care! Reba Mckintire came to sing...stayed in her TV. She was asked to meet a child with end stage cancer and she said ,NO. This was here say. She acted like the child was gross. My take is...these people are people in the end. Nothing special as just a person. Some are friendly some aren't.
So Tom Cruise does not want people to know about the opulence of his private home - such that Tom Cruise lives within that opulence - with renovations that Scientology provides (as labour) as part of scientology. So Tom Cruise participates in HUMAN SLAVERY by USING many people to work on his home, BUT those people only get paid $ a pittance per week by the Scientology organization. Thus Scientology is a HUMAN SLAVERY operator. Tom Cruise could make out that he "thought" people were paid a proper income instead of a pittance but it is HUMAN SLAVERY
Everything about Scientology is human slavery. On ALL levels. Then again, all cults engage in human slavery in one form or another. Sadly, the worst being children being s** slaves.
That's outrageous. Didn't know that. Mind you I don't really know anything about any religious group apart from the fact they're money making machines for the few that prey on confused people
I’m the same age as tom and I remember back in 1983 when he was first breaking into Hollywood. He’s not the same today. He’s definitely been changed by Scientology.
This was awesome guys!!! Thank you so much, it's super interesting all the way around and there's so much to cover!! You guys really did an excellent job!!!!
I stopped watching anything with Tom Cruise in it when I found out he was a scientologist. I refused to support any cult and will not support anyone who belongs to one either.
I worked at a large casino in the 90's. A coworker told me that a floorperson talked to one of the regular customers, an older gentleman. This customer told her that one time he was on a plane and Tom and Nicole was seated over from him and a couple seats down. He was a fan of Tom's and kept looking back at him. After they were in the air he heard Tom being rude to Nicole. And then he heard a slap. He said he looked over and realized that Tom had slapped Nicole. He said that was the day he stopped being a fan of Tom Cruise. I had a hard time believing that Tom had slapped Nicole. Now I believe that he could have easily slapped her.
What a bag of dirt he truly is, so disappointing that someone with his influence, celebrity with such deep pockets is brainwashed so easily and feels is just fine to abuse your wife in public, ha ! If he did that to me he’d get it right back with a closed fist . To bad it took her 11 years to flush that waste product away !
I lived in Clearwater for years before discovered by LEON Hubbard. Oh how I wished that never happened. Clearwater is a small city. The Scientologists snuck in covertly buying major property downtown. They bought the entire downtown, boudoir Bayfront from the city for peanuts. The Bayfront Clearwater citizens loved and went to all kinds of concerts and firework viewing. The Scientologists agree a very odd, closed bunch. They run around till 4-5am dressed in fake navy uniforms. Literally running. Tom won't like me saying this. He had a beautiful church torn down over the bay and built this 25 or so story condominium where he has the top floors and an elevator to lift his cars up. They are special cars. One night in around around time of the movie with the futuristic cars, this red low car I had no idea what it was, except a sports car, stopped, Tom leaned over looked me over and drove off. The Scientologists ruined me by leaving me in the lurch for unpaid rents and bills. They paid off the popo who raided my home and drove me off. Scientologists suck!!!!!
Thank you for your information… it’s best to expose Evil it frees your soul and awakes people to the Truth…… one day they won’t have the power to enslave people and they no longer will exist
I hope you are doing okay Eileen now, and so much wiser for your knowledge of this cult. Thank you for sharing your personal experience. I hope you are okay. Thank you for all who speak out against Scientology. Where is Miscaviges wife (name ?) As Leah asks. In my opinion. NSW Australia
@@winendesertrose Yes, Shelly is the poor ladies name, (captive or dead?). Some people in this cult, (abusive, henious crimes, on other people, adults and children). The number of brave people, speaking out about this cult. Leah and Mike in the positions they held while in Scientology. Their Documentary Series, and interviewing other people who were out of the cult, all giving their personal accounts of abuse towards them and other people. The personal attacks on them since getting out of Scientology by (thugs of people); attempting to discredit, scare and silence Leah, Mike and others. The series was on TV in NSW Australia. It is worth watching, particularly if people think Scientology is alright, good, helpful or cares about people etc. In my opinion. NSW Australia
Its hard for me to believe grown adults could fall for bull shit like this. But i learned years ago. ITS EASIER TO FOOL SOMEONE THAN IT IS TO CONVINCE THEM THEY HAVE BEEN FOOLED.
@@lifewithoutfear1213 I really don't fall for anything if I find logic rational and proof I may walk or even run to it. But falling certainly isn't the right word for me anyway. I've never understood how a grown somewhat competent person could put any value in Islam. Scientology. And even certain Christian cults that take it way out there. And once you learn about the history or beginning of said occult. It makes more sense to worship and pray to Snoopy and the red baron. I understand we as humans with different cultures around the globe have different mindsets of belief in many things. But I've done some fairly deep research on Scientology and Islam. Allah and Muhammad the mubahalah and the hadith. And this is nonthing more than my personal opinion. But I will say it again as respectful as I know how to. I do not see or understand how anyone that does not have a mental handicap could believe in some of the most dumbest idiotic subject's a person could explore.
I always thought there was something off about Tom Cruise. He seems to swing from over the top, frantic happiness, to a sort of brooding bleakness at the snap of his fingers. I can't help but notice his wives seem to get younger and younger as he wanders through one failed relationship and marriage to another. When you have had three failed marriages, I think you have to face the idea that it isn't them. It's you.
@@seanrichter5611 So three times he got engaged and married to women who fooled him into thinking they were sincere when they were really selfish? If that were the case and I'm not conceding at all that it is, he's either very gullible or a terrible judge of character. What I think is more likely the case is he's the difficult one and women leave him because of his turbulent personality.
Clair, thank you for being so brutally honest. You’re beautiful and your mannerisms are seriously sweet. Your calm demeanor made me listen to your whole stories. I view S as a big spiderweb. Those who get too close are snatched up and changed forever. It’s near impossible to break free. So happy you are free of it. Great interviewer, and great information!💯
Don't know if you are aware, but there is a Scientology Channel in Tampa Bay through Spectrum. Channel 5, to be exact. When I called Spectrum to complain, I was told that "it's a local channel and we have no control over THAT." I cancelled my Spectrum cable service right then and there. This is their latest desperate attempt to recruit. And the lies!! I watched it as long as I could stomach it, which wasn't long. Good riddance!
This was way back in 1997, but one thing that Tom Cruise did that rubbed me the wrong way was that immediately after Princess Diana's death, he was talking about his own experiences with having paparazzi chasing him in their vehicles. Hello?! Someone else has just died. This isn't about you, Tom!
He was supporting Princess Diana when he said that. People who haven't experienced the paparazzi on a daily basis just don't get how difficult it is to live that way.
I fully understand what you are saying! Tom's actions right after Dianna death shows how much they were bugging him, and he was wanting to release his own pressure using Diana's death to do so. I am not taking up for Tom! I just understand what he did, OK. Why did I make this statement? I have been in the same exact situation Tom was in! And there is nobody around that will listen to you. I takes a situation like Diana's to bring your situation to the general public! I have done something similiar. It's a tough situation to be in! And I wanted OUT! I was ready to do anything to get them out of my life. I wonder if most high profile people that have joined the church was merely a way to escape the church. Just think about it. I still have to hide from my situation, but it's nowhere as bad as it was at one point 25 years ago. JMO people, nothing else. Thanks for listening. FYI, it's late, and it's possible I have made a mistake in my writing, so please, just let me know!
I read recently that Cruise refuses any scenes requiring him to be abusive to women. I found that interesting considering he seems to turn a blind eye to all abuses against women in Scientology. Excellent interview. Claire is always fantastic and willing to share her knowledge with us. And Andrew, you asked great questions.
I was going to a little spa in Clearwater, Florida...took a wrong turn, right into the parking lot of the Huge Scientology Cult Building. I was literally creeped out and backed out of there as fast as I could.
Andrew and Claire I appreciate hearing your thoughts band perspective regarding Scientology. I do not watch any Tom Cruise movies and they aren't allowed in my home. Hearing your personal opinions has reinforced why Scientology is so dangerous (and a cult) and why having a god complex is absolutely wrong. Abusing others is never acceptable and no excuses will ever make it acceptable.
He's such a cheesball anyway. On the same plane with Steven Segal who I believe was deputized or something like that, so he could bust into people's houses and bust their heads, which was shown on a tv show. Poor Pee Wee Herman and Rob Lowe are complete heroes, compared with those guys.
Other older and more popular ideologies have taken millions of lives for something as little as not believing the same. Many to this day are indoctrinated from birth! And threatened with eternal torment if they do not believe the same! Scientology is bat shit crazy but others are far worse and more sinister. Hate one, hate them all or be a hypocrite
I get the vibe that Nicole doesn’t speak out because her kids are in, and she knows the only chance to regaining a relationship with them is to play nice.
Nicole Kidman loves all her children. The two she adopted with TC do not see her since she’s not a Scientologist. Love that she’s found happiness with Keith Urban they have two beautiful girls together.
Miscavige was a Comodore's Messenger. Part of his job was to relay orders from Hubbard. He was to relay the order in exactly the way it was given. Hubbard was prone to "volcanic rages" so the person best able to "duplicate" those rages would advance quickly. It became a "successful action" for Miscavige, and Tom learned it and uses it as a tool.
This cult sounds ridiculous how on earth people believe this crap is insane. Really insightful and can imagine if a person is vulnerable that this could suck people in.
How could people believe in the Theory of Evolution taught as scientifically reasonable even true? How can people believe that humans are evolved animals?
@@michellemobakeng5938 They don't like doing research, like the average "Christain" that doesn't read the Bible. Pray for them to become curious of God's hand.
I was in Scientology in the 90's and after assisting in some after hours meetings with the staff; I saw that this was an other evil Dogma intending to rule the world... I left immediately... Then I was from a strong personality type of person to an enemy in just a few days later...
Try again to get rid of their Tax Exempt status. I know it was tried before but they were able to blackmail the IRS through sheer numbers. Unbelievable!!
About 10 years ago, I watched a TV documentary on Scientology. According to the show, the leader of Scientology was known to be having trouble with his wife. Then one day, the Mrs. vanished, never to be seen again. What do Scientology followers think about this? Has the Mrs. ever been found?
I’ve been watching these people on tic tok telling people not to go in the building to take a personality test. They keep many people out from going in. They are in LA.
Hi Andrew. Tom (5'5"), David (5'3"). Both men suffer from "Short Man's Complex". I know. I married one who was handsome, successful but his shortness made him.mean. He was a true narcissist.
Now sorry to group people together because they are shorter men is ridiculous and prejudice. What you like to have your character judged on your face body ect. You sound like a scientology member that you hate. Seriously sophomoric remark. I may also add the fact that you married a narrcasist shows your lack of substance or lack of awareness
First time watching you and just the headline made my skin crawl. For years many youngsters raved over Tom Cruise......I found and still do find him repulsive. He's progressively got worse mainly with his personal life. Just had to have my five pence worth.
I loved the first few movies I saw him in -The Firm, A Few Good Men, Born on the Fourth of July - but those are just the type of movie I like. I haven't seen any of his action movies cause they're not my cup of tea. I was really disappointed in Born on the Fourth because I just couldn't find Tom's portrayal of his character believable, but forced myself to watch the whole movie because I was interested in the story. Then I tried to watch Magnolia and just found his character too repulsive. I thought about it for quite some time. Why did I find him so good in the first two movies and repulsive in the next two? Finally, I came to the conclusion that he really can't act. In the first two movies, he played an intense young lawyer, highly driven, idealistic, fresh out of law school and laser focused on the task at hand. There was no character development and little emotional life involved. When he brought that same lack of emotionality to his other movies, he flopped big time. When I heard he was in a cult, it all made sense. Cults train people to wear a mask at all times, regardless of situation. When you see him in interviews - where he is presumably not acting - he looks like he is wearing a teflon mask laminated onto his face - it's his Stepford Wives mask.
Did you know all this about Tom? Would you still see his films?
I don't go to the movies much anymore I only see maybe two to three movies a year and no I did not see any of his movies in the movies I do have one of his recent movies recently on DVD but I haven't watched it yet so not sure when I will
I stopped watching Cruise years ago because of his reputation.
@@donna3030 Same Here. I never liked Him. Gives Me The Creeps. So Anything HES inI Don’t Watch !!
I cannot feel sympathy for someone that signed a billion year contract and therefore has to call Tom Cruise “Sir” and do what he says. 😅
I’d still watch his movies if I liked them.
Oh hell no
Thank God Katie Holmes left him and took their daughter with her .. .. by doing so, she saved that little girl from the evil of this cult 🙏
and Nicole Kidman
There is no "god". Sounds like you're also in a cult.
Great full Katie's dad is a lawyer and he was able to help her get her and Suri out and to safety
@@carbine090909 …..ahem …… umm , are you aware of Nichole’s background? Who her father was? The rumors surrounding her father?
You’ll see there is some very “gray” area in there …….
Nicole lost them. They are scientologists now. And she is not better either
As a dad to a daughter myself, once I heard Cruise ditched his kid for his cult I'd heard all I need to. I will never understand how a dad could turn his back on his little girl.
Tom Cruise is supposedly sterile!
You would understand if you researched the personality disorder of a Narcissist
@@prettylady995 True. Understanding how narcissists function is key.
This is hearsay no real proof has been seen. They could be seeing each other away from the cameras.
Don't believe all the rumors!
I can't help myself but to have a little belly laugh when Nicole Kidman was asked ''so what's life like after Tom Cruise?' She replied ''well I can wear my high heels again now''
Nicole’s dad was a pedo!
Have you ever seen a movie she did called birth? It is the most creepy thing. She takes naked baths with a little boy. She is NOT a good person!!!!
Unless he is possessed by demons, he is a short man that can easily be overcome.
Sooooo glad Kidman and he are apart!!
because he is shorter than her;)
A person should never judge an actor by the character they play. Tom Cruises is definitely no top gun when it comes to character, integrity and personality and intelligence.
People don't care that he's an awful employer or person. Just like the cult, it's mostly an American problem. If only he paid what he really owed. the taxes on his income are paid, the free services delivered by slaves of the church aren't.
Hiding and selling his niece aren't exactly what a good man does. His cutie cutie wife knew that. More to the point, her father knew.
Cruise is imo a genuine psycho,, that little demonstration with Matt Lauer was really indicative of his state of mind... The Slop Gun acting like he's the first person to discover that Ritalin actually has a street value... THE MAN'S A GENIUS, slap a cap with a tassel on his head and slip that PhD into his back pocket the man's a master of the obvious, which wouldn't be so bad but Cruise is acting like he's educating the whole world or something.... This happens all the time with people who got a lot of money while not actually doing anything for it.. and that absolutely idiotic challenging stare he was giving Matt during his whole instructional monologue,, the only other person I've seen do that kind of psycho stuff with interviewers is Steven Seagull...
@@micnorton9487 the movie is rather laughable for those who served in the Navy in California. Cruise would have been kicked out of the military when the movie was made,for being under the suspicion of being gay. He is so weak and weird as a person, the movie Top Gun inflated his ego and turned him into a cult monster. His narcissism is on full display everywhere he goes along with his stupidity and weirdness.
He's the guy that tells you,you're a total assh*le..and,legit,expects you to stop and say "Oh my,THANK YOU,you are absolutely right 💯 thanks for letting me know"!!
@@katmack4215 Trump and his cult followers are without a country and are despised by the majority of Americans. You must take their aggressive multitude of weaknesses as strength. They’re cowards.
Leah did such a great service to humankind for revealing this cult.
Im surprised the woman is still drawing breath to be honest, they are pure evil. I hope she is well protected God bless her.
RU serious ? Any kid in Europe since the early 80s has been warned away from this cult, that's been condemned over and over. Americans can't give a shit.They cared more about nutjobs than minorities.. appeal in european court way later. Check their record. For real. Or brag about how your ways are the only laws that count. deal with the consequences.
Those lovely people sit on 3.5 Billions and for sure intend to good. Obviously. tom cruise will open the pacific sea or something if needed..Or not.
@@bridobrien7483 They make her life a nightmare. Anyone around her is a target. She doesn't want that, even if some want to help and are ready for hell on wheels..They need to stay strong on the outside of that big fart problem.
Yeah Leah is okay for getting out and her concern for David Miscarriage's absent wife imo was genuine HOWEVER she's still actually a scientologist... She said it's taught her a lot of good life lessons and I can understand that HOWEVER,, the whole thing was invented by a lunatic who wrote bad science fiction stories and never had an honest job in his life and focused his whole being on scamming people... I also believe that in a way psychiatry as a profession is more about making money and expanding their business by basically making stuff up,, social anxiety disorder? I would call it just another dimension of uncomfortable normalcy,, but these people want to fill people with drugs for all kinds of things that ordinarily would be treated with counseling ..
The sort of a thing is kind of like the prison industrial complex, trying different ways of making more money on a sector of society that one generally does not want to see growing.... A lobbying group named ALEC,, American legal exchange council,, for instance, lobby lawmakers for stiff sentences for drugs and just about everything else, "necessitating" long prison terms in for-profit prisons that is of course all paid for by the taxpayer while still sleazing profit off of commercial enterprises that operate inside the prison itself,, usually some sort of small industry or even customer service for online and telephone...
Leah did a fantastic job, but I knew they used brain washing techniques. They tried to brainwash my 14 year old daughter who was taken to an orientation by a friend. Being of average intelligence, when my daughter told me they wouldn't let her go to the bathroom, eat or even drink water for four hours of orientation, I forbid her to return. I explained they were using brainwashing techniques. and she understood, so that was that. Easy peasy. Then I did research L. Ron Hubbard, and it was an eye opener. Tom Cruz is an absolute idiot!!!
Scientology purposely tears families apart. Pure evil!
@@abefroman3466 Better now than never...
So do Jehovah's Witnesses.
Stop their tax relief their not a church They carry the Masonic evil cross on top of their building !
Cruise is a fake 100%
Yes. Just like our government.
I honestly don't even understand at all why Tom Cruise has been regarded as highly as he has been/is in Hollywood. He's primarily a one note actor, even in his "golden" acting years. Not terrible in any sense, but not at all as legendary as he's made out to be. Put him in a film (or literally just one scene) with Daniel Day Lewis, Anthony Hopkins, Leonardo DiCaprio, ADRIEN BRODY... he couldn't hold a candle
Absolutely ! he was promising, not groudbreaking when he was young. He stopped "acting" long ago. Became an action figure in blockbusters, The only good franchise he can cherish is Mission-Impossible, no thanks to him..just wait 10 years and Simon Pegg will be hilar
ious as ever at narrating the experience with a step back. if HE can't, Ricky Gervais will..you gotta love the British spirit.
They make room for all kinds of humour and "all public" shows. they don't care about PC because they're not nasty to begin with..They cuddle little sociopaths too ever since they stopped beating their buttocks..(late 90s) but the English education provided generations of gentlemen.. Not that the king himself was too happy about it..
Somehow OO7, will always be the measure in most hearts. as will be the acclaimed actors of the series mission impossible. They made us believe in crazy plots with very little budget.
👏🏾😂 💯 You ain't kidding!!
@@nichellepeters5195 none of us are. He's become a one -trick pony as acting goes and scum as person long ago. Do I want to see the end of his Mission Impossible, yes.

I don't know about the US, but employing people without lawful contracts equals to a full job with full benefits in Europe.

When I heard all the crap spewed from Cruise mouth about Brooke Shields and her postpartum symptoms aren’t a real thing, angered me deeply! That says all I needed to know about his character!
After Tom attempted to smear Brooke Shields, she was preforming in a play. She invited tom publicly to come and see the show, and to bring a date. She said, "just ask for two tickets at the door, for one adult and one child. I loved it. She is so much more intelligent then tom with his crazy ramblings.
Tom never said that Brooke Shields symptoms weren't real! He only said that a chemical imbalance is not the cause of depression, which is correct.
@@suzannelee854He has or had any knowledge of her mental or physical health. Stop defending him.

I watched Leah Remini’s shows on TV with her guests-all those stories of people who have left and how they were treated-unbelievable. She did a great job.
She’s a Great Actress & Lady!!!
My personal opinion of her is that she is a raving nut.
Leah Remini is a FORCE!!!!
But she didn't prove anything. She just talks about other people's business. No proof. You were in this too.what did they hide for you. And your money helped them to be able to do what they did.
@@sandyt7225 and she has realized that & is doing more than most to atone & help others. You a COS member? Sound like one
Leah also talked about how awful Tom treats his staff in that cult. The story she told, that she actually witnessed, was terrible. I don't understand how people can worship him like they do just because he's in movies.
Claire Headley is so poised and articulate in this interview. She comes across as direct and honest. It is too bad that she went through so many years of nonsense with this destructive cult. But she is so fortunate to have escaped from it, and I think it is her intelligence that helped her do that. I am very impressed.
I had a cousin that lived in the center in Los Angeles, she was sent to Toms home to refinish some type of woodwork. She refused to go back after the 2nd day, Tom had her sent to the Reformation center in Florida. She was there for 13 days and was forced to do labor with only 1 meal per day and was not allowed to speak to anyone, not allowed to bathe and had to sleep on a concrete floor with no pillow or blanket. She told me this info when I pick her up for her fathers funeral. I was followed to my home and for the 3 days she stayed at my home there was a car parked down the road. The car went away after I returned her to LA. She apparently married a guy that was security in the center. They apparently fled to the East Coast and are still living under different identities to this day. That cult is scary.
Are you serious
We had to get my cousin out of scientology by literally kidnapping her and putting her into hiding.

I’ve met two men who claimed to have had sex with….let’s call him “Todd” Cruise. The first is a very normal guy I hung out with socially many times over the 32 years I’ve lived in Chicago. He’s well liked and regarded as honest. He also doesn’t draw attention to himself or tell outlandish stories. The second person I only met twice for short periods of time, therefore, I don’t know much about his reputation or honesty. The two men don’t know each other, and have never met to my knowledge. But here is what is interesting to me. Their short stories about the sexual encounters with TC were nearly identical. For example, he was looking for a specific physical trait in his sex partners. You don’t need your imagination hat to figure this one out. Also, the settings were the same. The first was at a large fundraising type cocktail event. And the second was also a cocktail event, but it was one that the second guy was working at as part of the catering team. Both said that he took the same position sexually and insisted on safety. Both indicated that he was extremely short in stature in person and wore a baseball cap pulled low to conceal his identity. And finally, it was a very one and done thing with little or no exchange of info or conversation. The reason I bring it up is that I just found it very interesting how the church of Scientology conceals the sexual orientation of several of its megastar members and I’m guessing is the selling point for some of these people to get involved with the church in the first place. Also, Amazing is the elaborate way that they create these marriage relationships for these men and carefully craft their public image as that of a straight hunk. The one that I always found hysterical is when Rosie O’Donnell would publicly swoon over Tom Cruise and make a big deal out of her huge attraction to him especially on her TV show before she ever came out. What a bunch of horse s***. The only interest Rosie O’Donnell ever had in Tom Cruise was maybe to arm wrestle him. Finally, I will say that coming out is an extremely difficult thing to do no matter how old a person is and no matter how self confident they appear. It is also supposed to be a very private decision and left up to the person that is dealing with it, so I didn’t want to make fun of that issue, but deciding not to come out and deliberately constructing the opposite message, always struck me as being extremely hypocritical.
Very interesting and believable ♥️🇬🇧
Very interesting comment..😏
@@pateicialane4740 GASP..😆
I didn't read your comment before I wrote mine,but as they say,Great minds.....
Lol..😉
I heard years ago he was caught in a gay relationship and then he got married to bury the truth from coming out.
I read Rob Lowe's book, and although he didn't say anything overtly bad about working with Tom Cruise, he did recount a story about him being laser focused on his role, and being in character at all times during filming. I'm completely paraphrasing, and it's been a long time since I read it. Basically, he said he couldn't hang out while they were filming different movies in the same city because he was "Joe" or whatever character he was playing, not Tom.
From all of the different comments about Cruise by various people, he sounds like a narcissistic control freak. I'm also guessing that his exes had to sign ironclad non disclosure agreements when they divorced because none of them ever say anything about him. He gives me a bad feeling because he looks similar to my ex who was a major control freak and nearly destroyed me.
I remember that part of the book… something about Cruise phoning his agent wanting a separate room to the others or to be moved to a different hotel. Basically special treatment when he was still an unknown.
The exes will never say a word because they will send people from the organization to harass them the rest of their lives.
Both of Rob Lowe’s books are wonderful! I highly recommend them in audiobook format… Rob narrates them!
Alot of actors are reported to stay in character to bring realism to the screen some study real life characters being portrayed in films and stay in character also while not on set every one uses the tools they need to pull off the expected no big deals...
Hello from the South of France,
At the beginning of the 90s, while I was working in Paris (I was born there), the "Scientologists" tried to establish themselves in France.
Their method of recruiting was quite vicious since they distributed flyers at the exit of the subway entrances in the form of an IQ test where it was mentioned nowhere that it was Scientology.
Once it was completed, it was enough to contact a telephone number to obtain the test results.
I remember at the time I called that number for the results. I was then given an appointment the same evening at an address in Batignolles (in the 9ᵉ arrondissement of Paris).
I had gone there without suspecting more than that because I had been confirmed by telephone that everything was free.
When I arrived at the address, I realized there was a problem. The building where I had an appointment seemed to be an old restored church, and more importantly, was inscribed in full, "Church of Scientology."
I immediately understood that there was a problem. However, I went to the appointment anyway because I was curious and amused to see how they would try to sell me sales pitches.
I did not wait once I entered the premises. A person immediately brought me to an office where a man took care of me. He told me that my tests were excellent but wanted me to pass others.
Before that, he offered to watch a movie and took me to a room specially equipped for this purpose. A large screen and row of seats were identical to those in a movie theater.
The film told the life of the aviator Ron Hubbard who later became a science fiction author and developed a revolutionary method to surpass himself humanly.
After the film, I returned to my interlocutor, accompanied by a young woman who had looked after me before and after the screening.
Everything seemed to be settled like clockwork. There, I was made to retake tests which, after analysis, showed my strengths and weaknesses. I listened to all this with great amusement. Until someone offered to sell me Ron Hubbard's book. I declined the offer despite the insistence of my interlocutor, who wanted to be persuasive.
From there, the phone calls multiplied. They kept calling to invite me to come back and buy the book. I got angry and threatened to file a harassment complaint if they kept calling me. So, they finally gave up.
A few years later, the Church of Scientology found itself in court (1995), was condemned for fraud in an organized gang, and declared an undesirable sect with a ban on practicing on the territory by the French authorities.
Peace, folks. ☮😉
If I remember correctly, very similar to Germany.
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Thanks for the information 👍
Very similar in Australia. I was very young then. And I was super busy looking for work, and therefore I did not have time to follow up. I guess I was lucky.
hahahahaha I had forgotten about that part, YES you are ASSIGNED someone to follow you and be with you at all times. my brother was a contractor and he said even to do his work on site, they "ASSIGNED YOU SOMEONE" TO BE WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES. probably because they fear investigations and anyone talking inside the cult to you or any outsider. I swear this is true.
I met someone who had got out of Scientology, he was so traumatized by the experience and terrified of them finding him again. Really disturbing.
Wasn't Jack Parsons and l.ron Hubbard followers of Aleister Crowley who was said to be the most person of his time
Evil person of the time
Yet they spoke about?
Remember how badly he spoke to Matt Lauer on the today show?😮
Almost like the Amish
Physical abuse toward a minor is against the law. It should have been reported to the local authorities.
Watching, reading and living near Clearwater Florida it truly amazes me how so many intelligent individuals can think that this cult makes sense. It’s as if the part of the brain that holds any type of common sense is totally removed. I’m so glad these folks are exposing their experiences with the world and how corrupt city officials and law enforcements are because of the Scientology payoffs…
I can't believe anyone is paying to see Tom Cruise 60 year Old narcissist
Better then watching pheobe Waller bridge in Indy 5
It’s getting harder and harder to believe him in the action roles as he gets older for sure!
Me too, no way I’d waste my money on any movie he was in. 😉
Exactly - the scientology thing is enough for me, he disgusts me. And yes, he is such a narcissist. I really don't care one bit about his age. Would never go watch one of his movies.
Hey, I'm a 60 year old narcissist too, be nice 😂
TC is not Miscavidge's best friend. He is his prized pet poodle.
Exactly
😂
Love this comment 😂😂😂😂
That’s an insult to poodles lol!
Absolutely 😂
Mainstream media will never ask him anything about scientology. He wont do interviews otherwise. He is a cashcow for them and Hollywood hes so protected . I respect all that have escaped you guys bring me hope that we can all free ourselves. The truth will out..just not with him too many systems sheltering him
Narcissistic spiritual abuse.... That s how it s called... The victims end up devastated.... Thanks for publishing
My sister listened in to a phone call Tom made to paramount publicity dept. Rudest man, disrespectful too. Ungrateful,conceted, delusional abandoned his own daughter for a cult.
I worked in Paramount’s Motion Picture Distribution 1986 to 1997. I was ordered to report to the commissary to be part of a pandering studio clack as (midget - no more than 5’5” in heels) Cruise was given a $300,000 Mercedes by Sherry Lansing, then head of production. Quite a bizarre photo op fiasco. Production couldn’t find anyone who cared about him. We had nothing to do with the guy but we had to pretend we deified him. I did have to cope with his sister, tho. The entitlement was appalling. I had to blind call some tiny theater in the Midwest to have six seats for the premiere of Mission Impossible roped off for her. Imagine me calling some poor ticket taker and convincing them I was calling from Paramount in Hollywood to demand that they lose the profit of those seats on opening night for the benefit of egotists - who never even showed up. I did it but I lost all respect for Hollywood by working in it for 30 years. God bless Far West TX! 🤣

He has total bad energy
even tarot readers and star sign analysts agree he is pure evil and born with all the luck of a devil. bet he can play a fiddle till it catches fire too. when i squint my eyes and look at his image i swear i can see some horns and a trident in the back. never watched any of his movies, just the first time he appeared in his first blockbuster I disliked that face so much that I turned it off. the unicorn was more convincing to be real than that slob actor with his carpet face and evil eyes.
I’m so glad that Clare is exposing and explaining things properly
This is so disturbing. Thank you for sharing your stories.
Thank God for all those who have come out of this horrible cult. Pray that many more will follow suit!
Ugh enough with religion
The world is full of cults 🤔 I was born into the Roman Catholic cult but God opened my eyes to the gospel in the bible after years as an atheist 🙏
@@M_SCScientology is not a religion. It’s a cult.
Pray? If you mean just hope then fine but if you're saying pray to the god of one of the abrahamic cults then you need to consider deconversion therapy.
Amen! May the Lord give them strength and guidance to escape and survive.
I haven’t watched a Tom Cruise movie since Lawrence Wright’s book Going Clear was published. Before the documentary, before Leah and her shows. The book detailed how Scientology traffics humans and many work on TC properties or vehicles. He participated in the abuse as Leah detailed what she saw first hand at his home. Also in Leah’s fantastic book, when she found Suri who was an infant crying on the bathroom floor at Tom and Katie’s wedding reception and Tom’s sister and other Scientologists were standing around doing nothing. Leah stormed into the kitchen and got her a bottle and demanded that they feed her. They treat babies as adults in babies’ bodies, their thetan isn’t a baby. It’s child abuse! I was so happy when Katie got away. She saw what happened to Nicole and her kids and luckily has a father who is a family law attorney. I was ecstatic when they blindsided TC and Scientology!
I never watch any of his films, never liked him.
@@lindagatti7796 me neither
I remember back in the 80's when that movie of his can't remember the name, he was a fighter pilot. I started to watch it never saw any movie of his before, but when I started watching I had to stop, he gave me the creeps. There was something bad that I saw in him znd could not stand him now I can't even look at a picture of him, he is Satanic.
@@aliiljah8224 My Dad was a pilot, I love flying so I went to see it. I didn't like Cruise at all, just something that put me off. I liked Val Kilmer way better in that movie. Never paid a penny for or watched anything he was in since. I've misjudged people in my life, but I was right that time.
To be honest I used to like Tom cruise and understood sometimes how they acted due to always being under the line light although that’s the spot they put themself in. I loved movies and actors for their talent but as I can honestly say I was blinded all these years as many were/are not knowing that it’s not the spotlight but the evil and he desire of fame that is within them and that stems from them giving it all for satan and not their own merit! Love it while you have it Tom Cruise cause God is coming to judge and put you all in their rightful place!! Praise God🙏🏽😂
I was done with Tom Cruise when he attacked Brooke Shields comments about postpartum depression. Then completely done when he jumped on the couch over Katie.
He was high on adrenochrome when he was on the Oprah Winfrey Show
One of the very best interviews Claire. Andrew was an intuitive interviewer. Just a pure piece of journalistic conversation.
I'm sooo glad Cruise is being exposed. This is such a beautiful thing.
I absolutely cannot stomach watching Tom C. In any of his movies after seeing his behaviors outside of his movies! His arrogance is off the charts!!!
What do you mean "seeing" his behavior outside of his movies? What did you actually SEE???
@@Peekaboo-KittyI think she must be thinking "Derpfake" is Tom Cruise when it's an impersonator who does all these crazy stunts. He's actually hilarious to me!
@KittyBooBoo it's not as literal as you probably think it is.
I have to agree, I liked the movie, The Firm in lots of ways due to many of the other actors in it but TC had some scenes and he is so fake with being a loving person in scenes with his movie wife. fake emotions. other than TC, I liked the movie a lot!
Exactly
He must suffer in guilt. You cannot walk away from your own daughter without paying a price. And that price is losing yourself
So glad people are speaking out against this cult. Hopefully more people will get out
Back in 1988 in Oslo, Norway(I was only 18),- Me & Bente,- my bf at the time,- where walking down Carl Johans street(The Main Street in Oslo) when we met this guy whom asked us to joinhim back at this office to do some "personality tests". They separate us, took me in to a space on the ground floor. After an hour or so, discussing me and the "test",- I exploded in anger. This didn't make any sense to me at all. I stood up, found the door LOCKED, unlocked it and started shouting for my friend. I ran around and up to the second floor where I did find her in another Locked office space. She was heartbroken in TEARS!!! I grabbed her and dragged her out of there. Shouted back to them: " Leave us alone you guys are insane. They tried halfheartedly to stop me, but my mind was made up. We was on our way out of there and we never looked back. She thanked me,- cause they had broken her in ONE hour. OMG. I'm so thankful to this day and keep warning everyone I meet about this. Puh... Thanks for reading my story.

I avoid watching anything with Tom Cruise in it. I don’t want my $ going to him and Scientology.
Tom Cruise getting relationship advice from David Miscavige!!? That is ludicrous and so bizarrely hilarious.
How could you get beat up by a tiny little man like Tom?
I understand this is about Tom as a powerful celebrity, however I'm disgusted that more hasn't been done to this organization by authorities. Glad his daughter is away from the cult.
MysticStealth • I think Katy Holmes, his ex, his daughter's mother, left Scientology right after their divorce? So I don't think her daughter is in it.
Nicole Kidman comes from a family of very powerful witches and warlocks. Well known for their occult practices. She also joined Scientology. I don't know if she still practices it or not. But clearly CULT was in her genes.
This cult use to pay taxes. They harrassed and threatened the government to a point that they were cosidered a church and have paid no taxes since. They threaten monetary and physical damage to get their way!
seems they were called in to investigate the "leaders" missing wife and left after a few hours, closing the investigation......uh, can you say, "pay off"?
the cult is KNOWN for having authorities (lapd), politicians (to many to list) in their pocket... paid off and/or blackmailed (like the irs for example)...
@@JustMe-uu3bh the lieutenant Dawson in charge of the "case' in his spare time actually gave speeches about scientology! When Leah Remini who started the missing persons charge asked to see the information of the "investigation" she was told it was private. Then she was told the paperwork would take a few weeks and she would then be able to have it. Turns out this has been years now and Remini never did get any information/paperwork on the case, she was only told they met Shelley, the wife, and she's fine. She has not been seen in public for over 16 years and counting! Yeah, quite normal for the wife of a "religion's leader" who was anywhere and everywhere to (the lie that is told) suddenly doesn't want to go out in public EVER for ANY event for their "religion" and is happy happy happy working working working KSW (keep scientology working) 24/7! Yeah, sounds totally plausible and normal! It is highly suspected that she is being held at their very private compound in Lake Arrowhead, California. And Cruise presumably friends with her since you know she is the wife of his "best friend" the leader, seemingly doesn't care or question this? REALLY??? Imagine being "best friends" with a person and you haven't seen that person's wife in years and years, wouldn't any sane normal person wonder what the you know what is going on?? So Cruise is also guilty for this as well along with the other enabling of the abuse...
Tom would never leave cause he would have to admit he was scammed and stupid. He can never been seen as a failure
They're coerced into divulging intimate info. Walking away would mean risking being exposed.
So true! Tom cannot leave if even he wanted too.
Yes typical Narcissist…
Coerced? Oh please! Tom Cruise is treated like a god within Scientology. He will *never* give that up.
@@ShidachiOm Ditto. It's unfortunate for those who do believe they're doing it for the greater good. I pray they wake up.
Thank you very much for this very interesting episode! I have never seen a movie with Tom Cruise, have always seen him as creepy and weird. Now it emerged here that he is also malicious.
A few years ago I read an interview with someone who’s known Cruise since the early years, but has grown distant over the past couple of decades. He was asked which of Cruise’s movie roles most accurately reflects the real Cruise, and he said Frank TJ Mackey, from the movie Magnolia. That alone is pretty damning.
I’ve never really cared for Tom Cruise and we’re the same age, there are so many more interesting leading men in celebrity world that far surpasses Toms acting ability as well as his so called good looks. So, so, thankful that Nicole and Katy got away from this toxic manipulative man.
Agree
I am the same age as him as well and never liked him. He is like a brainwashed robot. Give me Matthew McConaughey any day. Now that's a handsome, charming, sexy, real man.
He is the least interesting, for want of a better word, man, that I have ever had the unfortunate task of hunting frenziedly for my remote control to get rid of him. I would not want my pleasant little cottage contaminated by him.
When I saw him in Interview With A Vampire, especially the fake piano-playing scene, I realized he had no talent whatsoever; and SO full of himself. Nauseating.
I so totally agree. It is the same with Travolta. He is a scumbag and his looks distract from his evil self centered personality...there are and were more talented down to earth actors from that period...like the dude from the die hard movies...
I NEVER watch anything with Tom Cruise in it. I have my standards.
Ridiculous! Why can't you just appreciate a movie for what it is?
Not evan joel in risky business doing old time rock'n'roll.
I do enjoy Movies that Tom is in it. I dont know about his private side but movies he is in were pretty decent.
😂😂😂😂
Me too.
I can’t believe the issue of where is Shelley Miscavage did not come up in your interview. She was the high priestess of Scientology, and has totally disappeared so I would like to know what happened to her.
About 20-25 years ago, our family went to Disney … not sure why, but we chose to stay in Clearwater, FL … while the beach was absolutely gorgeous, the town itself seemed like a movie set .. I can’t recall a specific example because the overall vibe was off … it was immaculate and super orderly but in a prefabricated kind of way …. years later I found out Clearwater is the headquarters for Scientology and that trip immediately came to mind … it all made so much sense .. you’d think the enormous foreboding blue building would’ve been a clue lol 😂
My mom thinks I'm crazy for boycotting the Newest Mission Impossible. I told her I'll never watch another Tom Cruise movie in my life. Not until Scientology is no longer a thing.
Ridiculous! Why can't you just appreciate a good movie for what it is?
@KittyBooBoo Because any money Cruise makes off movies he contributes a portion to support his misogynistic cult. He's not seeing a penny from me.
I agree with you. I don't care to know your political views ect... all that has done is limit my selection of what I once called entertainment.
I stopped watching anything he was involved in after learning about his affiliation with Scientology. I've done the same with Juliette Lewis after watching her use "the tone" on a reporter - she is batshyt.
Me too! We need to as a society realize that tjis guy is a high up cult leader and he is friggin nuts!!!
This is the first time I hear the details of rumours surrounding him and I am not surprised. There is something about him that says control freak, keeping lots of secrets, manipulative, obsessive authoritarian and only shows one side of him how professional he is and kind to people when the reality is much darker. He is so well guarded that I don't think we will ever know the true extent of it
I feel the same way!👍
He believes his god is a alien LOL that pretty much tells you all you need to know , he's nuts.
He’s ice cold
Even in mission impossible, he is kinda like that.
That may be why Shakira wanted nothing to do with him. He was to pushy
Just watched Claire on Leah's channel, with Mike Ryder, recounting what they experienced with the chief of LAPD police and embedded scientology influence. Excellent interview by Leah.

Exactly! L. Ron Hubbard, according to his son, said that he and his friend sat down and contrived a plan to start a religion - - - for the sole purpose to making money. Hubbard abused his wife, threatened to kill her if she left him, he physically abused his members, etc. He was a major dick!!!
And plot many murders
Yes I saw that covid thing screaming at crew and an Australian guy asked him a question he didn’t like and he was very menacing towards him

I worked for Scientology when I was 22 years old
And could never understand how anyone could be sucked into this 💩. They tried to get me but I wouldn’t go for it.
Brainwashing..
Weak minds. No solid foundation in belief of self and independence.
Just curious. I'd once heard that you had to join them to be an employee. Did they change that at some point? Or is that just not true?
@@buddygrimfield7954 had not heard that you had to join them to be an employee. They were more than keen to have me as their employee and I had answered an advertisement in the Columbus dispatch newspaper. I was only 22 years old and it was 1988 and the ad said it was for the church of Scientology and silly me thought it was an actual church. They really wanted my repro skills as it wasn’t that common back then. I had a lot of print work experience. After I started working for them, they were paying me in “credits “which was nothing but BS for not really anything, and let’s try and keep as much of that as we can by getting you to buy our junk. the only thing I got from them was a book because I felt sorry for the poor guy who kept trying to get me to buy something and I said well I’ll check it out and I bought the book and it was stupid. Who in their right mind is going to think sci-fi is real in the case that they had was ridiculous. It was all aliens and garbage, and really stupid. They had an office that they kept in pristine condition and had photographs of L Ron Hubbard and his wife on the walls and on the desk and I remember the door had a frosted glass from the middle part of the door to the top. The rest of the door was white. Kind of reminded me of the old fashion doors that she was seeing the doctors office from the 40s 50s and so forth. I was told that they kept the office ready to go so when L Ron Hubbard got there and he could be there at any time that it was all set for him. I didn’t find out so many years later that L Ron Hubbard died in 1985. Like I said it looks stupid. The whole thing seems stupid in like a gimmick to me and I didn’t last of the job because I didn’t like being screwed around. I was a young mother and I didn’t have time for their mess. It definitely had a cold feeling to it. Their eyes were glazed over and they were just strange. My immediate boss seemed like an old hippie really. But now I don’t know that you ever had to be a member of the church to work for them. I don’t think they had any problem, screwing anybody out of money. Hope that helps. That’s pretty much what I know.
@@buddygrimfield7954 oh yeah, another thing you might be interested in. They had a poor fella working there and he might’ve been 25. Very nice soft-spoken guy. He’s the one that convinced me to buy one of their books and he worked in their library of all things if that’s what you wanna call it. Selling all of their crap. He worked there for free. And he had to live in the YMCA because he was homeless. Really take care of their people don’t they?
I was really liking the health guru Dr Berg until I caught a random video of his grown son who talked about his escape from scientology and said that his father was a scientologist. His sons name is Ethan or something, very humble and authentic. Their voices sound the same.
You never know which youtubers are funding their church cults 😐
Same-same….love Dr Berg’s son, Ian Rafalko. ❤️❤️
He seems so sincere. Apparently Dr Berg, behind the scenes, makes fun of people who buy his products because he knows they don’t work. According to Ian, his dad thinks people are gullible and he is happy to make money off their stupidity and would often brag about it.😡😡
Dr Berg is nothing but a grifter.
Oh my, that’s a real eye opener to me. I think Dr Berg is clever. but some times over the top. And he’s certainly a sales man. I’ve never bought his product. I’ll now think twice about watching him. One never knows 🤷♀️ I will watch what he’s son has to say.
I’m shocked. I watch Dr Berg sometimes. I always thought there was something a bit off with him and could never fully decide if he was a bit of a fraud. This explains a lot knowing he is a Scientologist.
Saw the same thing, but haven’t seen any evidence that berg is a pos. He gives out lots of good info for free…
Have you seen any other info on him?
I was the exact same until I found out .
I love Claire. I’m so proud of her for all the work she does to help people. ❤
Never saw a Cruise film. never will. I did. however, see 'My Dinner With Andre' back in the day. Right up MY alley.
I worked in a room with about ½ a dozen other people for 6 years. One guy was a former Scientologist. He had worked there for a few years when I was hired. Later they hired a guy that was a former Mormon.
They had this game they would play, "My cult, was worse than your cult."
They would compete and the rest of us would score. They were in a dead heat for 3 years. When I got a new job, my last request from my supervisor was, "replace me with an ex Jehovah's Witness, those guys need somebody new to commiserate with."
Honestly, I think those 2 guy becoming friends was the best thing that could have happened to either of them. The rest of us couldn't believe what they had been through. The things they said were so bizarre to us. Yet, it was completely normal in their old life.
If you are miserable, do what you have to in order to initiate positive change. Positive is the key word.

As a "mormon" I laugh at these stupidities :D Yeah yeah - I know, brain washed and so on. I say you guys are brain washed by too much YT videos. I was in LDS 20 years and never seen anything of all these idiotic stories spread by "ex-mormons". But feel free to spread these urban legends so I can laugh a bit more. These are so ridiculous :D
Wow. That is actually so horribly sad, but at least they now have someone that they can heal with.
I was raised as a Jehovah's witness kid in a elders family and never believed any of it. But that religion is not based on bilking people of money just teach them their biblical theories. Of course there is hypocrisy in the religion as are all religions. Catholicism is one of the worst and people just ignore all that. It is full of lies and to me just as disgusting as Scientology. Power, money and deception, lies, manipulating, deception is what is Catholicism.
Isn't it possible David Miscavige and Tom Cruise are lovers and just blatant charlatans and the reason Shelley Miscavage is missing is because she found out? That's the vibe I always get from the two of them.
Yes definitely
Makes sense - sounds about right
I've always thought they must be partners in every form.
There are rumours that Tom Cruise is bi so it wouldn't surprise me.
I could definitely see that
I saw an interview many years ago, and Tom Cruise was aggressive and rude. Never liked him after that.
Hi Claire. Thank you for co-signing the book I received. Keep up the good work.❤
Is Shelley Miscavige ( David’s wife) still missing? Her Wikipedia page has her as missing for 16 years and 18 days! She hasn’t been seen in public since 2007! Some claim she is being held against her will. The police need to insist on having eyes on her just to confirmed she’s still alive.
If there was genuinely wrong doing the police WOULD get involved… of course…
Absolutely NOT. I had an experience when he was filming of 4th of July on the SMU campus in Dallas, Texas. Not only is he "tiny" and obviously suffers from "Short Man Syndrome" and 100% a Narcissist, but he is only friendly or polite when it might benefit him. He was very friendly to a 19yr old SMU student who was with me and my 10yr old daughter. The older was a gorgeous young lady so he was all smiles and happy to speak to her but would not say anything to my daughter, not even an autograph. I'm not going into this any deeper...he's not worth the time or the upset caused by his rudeness. He is not well and certainly not a good person. The girls did talk about how my 10yr old was almost as tall as he was...that made my daughter feel better and we all laughed all the way back home.
I am sure you know what your talking about. In my town we have a fair...quite large. I worked at a hotel across the street. Singers would come and sing...some stay at the hotel.
Billy Ray Cyrus stated at the hotel. Rude and somewhat mean. He wouldn't even agree to toss a football out to the group. He lost supporter's that day...like he could care!
Reba Mckintire came to sing...stayed in her TV. She was asked to meet a child with end stage cancer and she said ,NO. This was here say. She acted like the child was gross.
My take is...these people are people in the end. Nothing special as just a person.
Some are friendly some aren't.
don't know what his height has to do with anything

@lizmcbride5659 napoleon complex is anactual mental disorder.
Notably Tom is having to send out Scientologists to find a girlfriend for him? Major red flag.
Thanks for saying it out loud that it should be illegal for kids to be involed in cults but first we have to legally define "cult".
So Tom Cruise does not want people to know about the opulence of his private home - such that Tom Cruise lives within that opulence - with renovations that Scientology provides (as labour) as part of scientology.
So Tom Cruise participates in HUMAN SLAVERY by USING many people to work on his home, BUT those people only get paid $ a pittance per week by the Scientology organization. Thus Scientology is a HUMAN SLAVERY operator. Tom Cruise could make out that he "thought" people were paid a proper income instead of a pittance but it is HUMAN SLAVERY
Everything about Scientology is human slavery. On ALL levels. Then again, all cults engage in human slavery in one form or another. Sadly, the worst being children being s** slaves.
good take on that.
That's outrageous. Didn't know that. Mind you I don't really know anything about any religious group apart from the fact they're money making machines for the few that prey on confused people
Wow…actually never thought about it that way before. Good point. I remember Lea talking about how they treat the children and other “workers”.
Especially since so many of them are children who are kept separately from their parents!
I’m the same age as tom and I remember back in 1983 when he was first breaking into Hollywood. He’s not the same today. He’s definitely been changed by Scientology.
My impression in those days was that he seemed arrogant already, but I did enjoy his movies.
And changed by his massive ego!!!😂😂
He is a narcissist, that isn't scientology's fault, it's because he is a narcissist, that he is thriving in this cult.
No, way back before he was famous he was an asshole.
This was awesome guys!!! Thank you so much, it's super interesting all the way around and there's so much to cover!! You guys really did an excellent job!!!!
I stopped watching anything with Tom Cruise in it when I found out he was a scientologist. I refused to support any cult and will not support anyone who belongs to one either.
I worked at a large casino in the 90's. A coworker told me that a floorperson talked to one of the regular customers, an older gentleman. This customer told her that one time he was on a plane and Tom and Nicole was seated over from him and a couple seats down. He was a fan of Tom's and kept looking back at him. After they were in the air he heard Tom being rude to Nicole. And then he heard a slap. He said he looked over and realized that Tom had slapped Nicole. He said that was the day he stopped being a fan of Tom Cruise. I had a hard time believing that Tom had slapped Nicole. Now I believe that he could have easily slapped her.
What a bag of dirt he truly is, so disappointing that someone with his influence, celebrity with such deep pockets is brainwashed so easily and feels is just fine to abuse your wife in public, ha ! If he did that to me he’d get it right back with a closed fist . To bad it took her 11 years to flush that waste product away !

@@dr.francodebellefort4209 You have issues. And, there is not a good enough reason to abuse a woman or a child.
I lived in Clearwater for years before discovered by LEON Hubbard. Oh how I wished that never happened. Clearwater is a small city. The Scientologists snuck in covertly buying major property downtown. They bought the entire downtown, boudoir Bayfront from the city for peanuts. The Bayfront Clearwater citizens loved and went to all kinds of concerts and firework viewing. The Scientologists agree a very odd, closed bunch. They run around till 4-5am dressed in fake navy uniforms. Literally running. Tom won't like me saying this. He had a beautiful church torn down over the bay and built this 25 or so story condominium where he has the top floors and an elevator to lift his cars up. They are special cars. One night in around around time of the movie with the futuristic cars, this red low car I had no idea what it was, except a sports car, stopped, Tom leaned over looked me over and drove off. The Scientologists ruined me by leaving me in the lurch for unpaid rents and bills. They paid off the popo who raided my home and drove me off. Scientologists suck!!!!!
Thank you for your information… it’s best to expose Evil it frees your soul and awakes people to the Truth…… one day they won’t have the power to enslave people and they no longer will exist
I hope you are doing okay Eileen now, and so much wiser for your knowledge of this cult. Thank you for sharing your personal experience. I hope you are okay.
Thank you for all who speak out against Scientology.
Where is Miscaviges wife (name ?) As Leah asks.
In my opinion.
NSW Australia

@@winendesertrose Yes, Shelly is the poor ladies name, (captive or dead?). Some people in this cult, (abusive, henious crimes, on other people, adults and children).
The number of brave people, speaking out about this cult. Leah and Mike in the positions they held while in Scientology. Their Documentary Series, and interviewing other people who were out of the cult, all giving their personal accounts of abuse towards them and other people. The personal attacks on them since getting out of Scientology by (thugs of people); attempting to discredit, scare and silence Leah, Mike and others. The series was on TV in NSW Australia. It is worth watching, particularly if people think Scientology is alright, good, helpful or cares about people etc.
In my opinion.

I wouldn't spend 2 cents on a Tom Cruise movie or watch him on TV. WHAT HE DID TO HIS DAUGHTER WAS UNTHINKABLE!! SLEEZE!!
it's possible Tom did not trust anyone to wire his home or whatever, for fear of someone bugging his digs.
Its hard for me to believe grown adults could fall for bull shit like this. But i learned years ago. ITS EASIER TO FOOL SOMEONE THAN IT IS TO CONVINCE THEM THEY HAVE BEEN FOOLED.
A lot of times people will accept a lie easier than they would the truth.
The same for all people believing in any religion, indoctrination runs deep!
That is a truth that is appropriate to a very great number of subjects in the world.
Your falling for the bill shit these two are spitting right now so now it doesn’t have to be hard for you to believe.
@@lifewithoutfear1213 I really don't fall for anything if I find logic rational and proof I may walk or even run to it. But falling certainly isn't the right word for me anyway. I've never understood how a grown somewhat competent person could put any value in Islam. Scientology. And even certain Christian cults that take it way out there. And once you learn about the history or beginning of said occult. It makes more sense to worship and pray to Snoopy and the red baron. I understand we as humans with different cultures around the globe have different mindsets of belief in many things. But I've done some fairly deep research on Scientology and Islam. Allah and Muhammad the mubahalah and the hadith. And this is nonthing more than my personal opinion. But I will say it again as respectful as I know how to. I do not see or understand how anyone that does not have a mental handicap could believe in some of the most dumbest idiotic subject's a person could explore.
I always thought there was something off about Tom Cruise. He seems to swing from over the top, frantic happiness, to a sort of brooding bleakness at the snap of his fingers. I can't help but notice his wives seem to get younger and younger as he wanders through one failed relationship and marriage to another. When you have had three failed marriages, I think you have to face the idea that it isn't them. It's you.
That is not necessarily true. Someone may be married several times to the wrong person because they act like they are sincere but are selfish.
@@seanrichter5611 So three times he got engaged and married to women who fooled him into thinking they were sincere when they were really selfish? If that were the case and I'm not conceding at all that it is, he's either very gullible or a terrible judge of character. What I think is more likely the case is he's the difficult one and women leave him because of his turbulent personality.
Clair, thank you for being so brutally honest. You’re beautiful and your mannerisms are seriously sweet. Your calm demeanor made me listen to your whole stories.
I view S as a big spiderweb. Those who get too close are snatched up and changed forever. It’s near impossible to break free. So happy you are free of it. Great interviewer, and great information!💯
The spider web analogy, I like it.
Don't know if you are aware, but there is a Scientology Channel in Tampa Bay through Spectrum. Channel 5, to be exact. When I called Spectrum to complain, I was told that "it's a local channel and we have no control over THAT." I cancelled my Spectrum cable service right then and there. This is their latest desperate attempt to recruit. And the lies!! I watched it as long as I could stomach it, which wasn't long. Good riddance!
This was way back in 1997, but one thing that Tom Cruise did that rubbed me the wrong way was that immediately after Princess Diana's death, he was talking about his own experiences with having paparazzi chasing him in their vehicles. Hello?! Someone else has just died. This isn't about you, Tom!
He was supporting Princess Diana when he said that. People who haven't experienced the paparazzi on a daily basis just don't get how difficult it is to live that way.
I fully understand what you are saying! Tom's actions right after Dianna death shows how much they were bugging him, and he was wanting to release his own pressure using Diana's death to do so. I am not taking up for Tom! I just understand what he did, OK.
Why did I make this statement? I have been in the same exact situation Tom was in! And there is nobody around that will listen to you. I takes a situation like Diana's to bring your situation to the general public! I have done something similiar. It's a tough situation to be in! And I wanted OUT! I was ready to do anything to get them out of my life. I wonder if most high profile people that have joined the church was merely a way to escape the church. Just think about it. I still have to hide from my situation, but it's nowhere as bad as it was at one point 25 years ago.
JMO people, nothing else. Thanks for listening. FYI, it's late, and it's possible I have made a mistake in my writing, so please, just let me know!
I remember that. So tiresome.
Main character syndrome
But wait, it's all about meeeeeee!
I read recently that Cruise refuses any scenes requiring him to be abusive to women. I found that interesting considering he seems to turn a blind eye to all abuses against women in Scientology. Excellent interview. Claire is always fantastic and willing to share her knowledge with us. And Andrew, you asked great questions.
He's protecting his image. Imo
@@tanyachristensen5330 I think his image had to change after his attack on Brooke Shields having post partem depression
People are so bloody dumb and stupid. Even sheep have more intelligence.
So is that mean Scientology is pro to abuse men more than women?
Kind of Masochist group ? LMAO 🤣
South Park episode " come out of the closet " isn't just comedy.
There are reasons he is so quick to sue.
I'm so independent and feisty if you diss me - can't believe people will accept this control over their lives ...
I was going to a little spa in Clearwater, Florida...took a wrong turn, right into the parking lot of the Huge Scientology Cult Building. I was literally creeped out and backed out of there as fast as I could.
Andrew and Claire I appreciate hearing your thoughts band perspective regarding Scientology. I do not watch any Tom Cruise movies and they aren't allowed in my home. Hearing your personal opinions has reinforced why Scientology is so dangerous (and a cult) and why having a god complex is absolutely wrong. Abusing others is never acceptable and no excuses will ever make it acceptable.
Agree, I won't watch anything with any scientologist in it and there are many
He's such a cheesball anyway. On the same plane with Steven Segal who I believe was deputized or something like that, so he could bust into people's houses and bust their heads, which was shown on a tv show. Poor Pee Wee Herman and Rob Lowe are complete heroes, compared with those guys.
Other older and more popular ideologies have taken millions of lives for something as little as not believing the same. Many to this day are indoctrinated from birth! And threatened with eternal torment if they do not believe the same! Scientology is bat shit crazy but others are far worse and more sinister. Hate one, hate them all or be a hypocrite
Good on ya! Keep up the good mindset.
Never liked Tom Cruise
I get the vibe that Nicole doesn’t speak out because her kids are in, and she knows the only chance to regaining a relationship with them is to play nice.
Nicole Kidman loves all her children. The two she adopted with TC do not see her since she’s not a Scientologist. Love that she’s found happiness with Keith Urban they have two beautiful girls together.
Nicole's with keith now she seems a nice person and a good mother im not keen on her acting though.
She had to give up her children to scientology it was part of the divorce
They're all grown up now.
Miscavige was a Comodore's Messenger. Part of his job was to relay orders from Hubbard. He was to relay the order in exactly the way it was given. Hubbard was prone to "volcanic rages" so the person best able to "duplicate" those rages would advance quickly.
It became a "successful action" for Miscavige, and Tom learned it and uses it as a tool.
I truly enjoyed this, thank you 🌷
This cult sounds ridiculous how on earth people believe this crap is insane. Really insightful and can imagine if a person is vulnerable that this could suck people in.
They are money grubbers..
Demons.
Sambo , if you don,t believe, you need to take a reality check, the cult is real, they rule the planet. pedo,s perverts and evil bastards,

Informative and insightful interview - Kudos.
I was in Scientology in the 90's and after assisting in some after hours meetings with the staff; I saw that this was an other evil Dogma intending to rule the world... I left immediately... Then I was from a strong personality type of person to an enemy in just a few days later...
It is the Massocic dogma, they just change the name to confuse people. Confusion is 1of the devil's favourite strategy.

Try again to get rid of their Tax Exempt status. I know it was tried before but they were able to blackmail the IRS through sheer numbers. Unbelievable!!
About 10 years ago, I watched a TV documentary on Scientology. According to the show, the leader of Scientology was known to be having trouble with his wife. Then one day, the Mrs. vanished, never to be seen again. What do Scientology followers think about this? Has the Mrs. ever been found?
No, she has not been found. There are a few documentaries here on you tube about this.
@@GypsyGirl317 I wonder what may have happened?
Actually, she has been found, the police went looking for her & found her living in the compound.

I’ve been watching these people on tic tok telling people not to go in the building to take a personality test. They keep many people out from going in. They are in LA.
I'm 5'6" and you made me feel smallish! Still standing tall!
Hi Andrew. Tom (5'5"), David (5'3"). Both men suffer from "Short Man's Complex". I know. I married one who was handsome, successful but his shortness made him.mean. He was a true narcissist.
Now sorry to group people together because they are shorter men is ridiculous and prejudice. What you like to have your character judged on your face body ect. You sound like a scientology member that you hate. Seriously sophomoric remark. I may also add the fact that you married a narrcasist shows your lack of substance or lack of awareness
First time watching you and just the headline made my skin crawl. For years many youngsters raved over Tom Cruise......I found and still do find him repulsive. He's progressively got worse mainly with his personal life. Just had to have my five pence worth.
I completely agree !!!
Exactly! He’s so creepy. Not many people can see through it. 🤷🏻♀️
I loved the first few movies I saw him in -The Firm, A Few Good Men, Born on the Fourth of July - but those are just the type of movie I like. I haven't seen any of his action movies cause they're not my cup of tea. I was really disappointed in Born on the Fourth because I just couldn't find Tom's portrayal of his character believable, but forced myself to watch the whole movie because I was interested in the story. Then I tried to watch Magnolia and just found his character too repulsive.
I thought about it for quite some time. Why did I find him so good in the first two movies and repulsive in the next two? Finally, I came to the conclusion that he really can't act. In the first two movies, he played an intense young lawyer, highly driven, idealistic, fresh out of law school and laser focused on the task at hand. There was no character development and little emotional life involved. When he brought that same lack of emotionality to his other movies, he flopped big time. When I heard he was in a cult, it all made sense. Cults train people to wear a mask at all times, regardless of situation. When you see him in interviews - where he is presumably not acting - he looks like he is wearing a teflon mask laminated onto his face - it's his Stepford Wives mask.
I feel same way...why does he keep getting these major roles? He is repulsive, in my opinion
I agree. He's always given me the heebie jeebies.
Tell us about how Katie got away from crazy cruise!
Didn't think anyone could leave this cult without BIG Trouble. .....or at all.
