Will Smith boosting Scientology

Wednesday, January 9th 2008, 4:00 AM

Pizzello/Reuters Will Smith and Tom Cruise

Will Smith has joined the ranks of Hollywood power players actively recruiting for the Church of Scientology.

Big stars traditionally distribute "wrap presents" to crew members after completing a film. His recent gift after wrapping next summer's comedy "Hancock" was a card good for a personality test at your local Scientology center.

Fun!

Never mind that such tests are given free by the church anyway. The quiz is designed to convert people to the religion by identifying personality flaws that - surprise! - Scientology can fix right up for you.

For a fee, of course.

Smith, who is best buddies with Scientology booster Tom Cruise, has never confirmed that he joined the church. But he told "Access Hollywood" last month: "I was introduced to it by Tom, and I'm a student of world religion. I was raised in a Baptist household. I went to a Catholic school, but the ideas of the Bible are 98% the same ideas of Scientology, 98% the same ideas of Hinduism and Buddhism."

Presumably the other 2% is the part about the evil space emperor who put the hydrogen bombs in the volcano.

Smith's rep was traveling with the actor on Tuesday and unavailable for comment.

So, has Will been sucked into the Co$ Black Hole or not? I'm guessing yes and he's been there for a while. I'm willing to bet that the Beckhams, or at least Dayviiiid is the next recruit. Famous/Dumb/Rich - perfect!

Yet another reason to hate Will Smith.

**sputnik** · January 9th, 2008, 07:20 AM

i'm with a*o - they've been scienos for years but are too afraid of the PR disaster that would ensue should they officially come out as such.

**A*O** · January 9th, 2008, 07:20 AM

And Tom really does look like an Old (crazy) Lesbian in that pic. Also, where IS Will's natural hairline???

**travelbug** · January 9th, 2008, 07:59 AM

Crazy and cheap!

**cmmdee** · January 9th, 2008, 08:00 AM

I knew Tommy girl would get him eventually.
Look at Tom in that picture. Fucking Jim Jones the 2nd.

I've had a feeling for a while that Will Smith was a Scientologist. That's a shame because i really like him. IMO Scientology is a nasty and dangerous cult that should be avoided at all costs...

I don't for a minute believe that Victoria would allow David to join Scientology. For some reason, I see her as having a little too many street smarts. She would kick his ass if he tried to join.

**cmmdee** · January 9th, 2008, 08:13 AM

^^ Cause she wants the money to go shopping, not being spent on crazy Tom's cult. Smart cookie. I hope he doesn't get them.

Oh for fuck's sake and to think I used to love Will Smith. Obvioulsy he is easily brainwashed.

**Grimmlok** · January 9th, 2008, 11:00 AM

No, he's easily GAY.

**powerorchid** · January 9th, 2008, 11:09 AM

do you have to be gay to be a scientologist or can normal people join???

**greysfang** · January 9th, 2008, 11:12 AM

It breaks my heart, but I believe Big Willy has been getting jiggy with CO$ for quite some time. Jada's has been in for years, so Will probably has too.

I love Will, if he gets all wonkified like the GMD, I will lose my shit.
