willsmithpic.jpgIt seems more and more of the media are no longer afraid to take shots at Scientology and the celebs who may or may not be a part of their flock. The latest expose of the cult–and it seems like there is one every week now–will hit newsstands next week as Radar magazine makes the allegations that Scientology is targeting African-American celebrities such as Will Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith.


Will Smith continues to deny the rumors that due to his close relationship with Tom Cruise he is becoming more interested in Scientology. He argues that one doesn’t have to be a Jew to “be a friend of Steven Spielberg’s” and that he still is a Christian. In fact, he has said this numerous times in several interviews, as if he’s worried someone might not believe him.
While reading up on all the religions–something Smith has claimed to do–he might also want to hone up on his Shakespeare because me thinks perhaps the movie star doth protest a little too much.
