Leah Remini’s Claims on Tom & Katie’s Wedding is Nothing Like You’ve Imagined

In her new autobiography, “Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology”, Leah Remini goes after high-profile targets like Tom Cruise and Sharon Osbourne, but she has nothing but warm regards for one Twin Cities resident.

The Church of Scientology claimed that Remini’s revelations were all based on her “insatiable craving for attention” and that she’s doing this prior to her pending removal from the church because of ethical lapses. Here are a few choice excerpts culled from various blogs.

PHOTOS: Me & You & Xenu? Do you know who gets served with a mug that’s chipped? He walked into the kitchen, where a batch of prepackaged cookie dough had been prepared and was sitting on the counter, a flawless loaf ready for cutting and baking.

-Remini’s discomfort that two Sea Org members were always present at Tom Cruise’s house, even during informal dinner parties.

“Guys, where’s the cookie stuff?” he said, furrowing his brow. “Tom is reeling and mad as hell over what she’s saying”. News exclusively. “Looking back on it now, I wish we…had been closer because I had no idea”. But she didn’t. She couldn’t.

After she made a $1 million donation to the church, Remini was ushered into Tom Cruise’s inner circle (which did not include John Travolta and Kirstie Alley, whom Tom “didn’t like”, according to the actress). When I opened the door, I found three women, including Tom’s sister and his assistant, standing over the baby, who was lying on the tile floor.

“All is forgiven, as far as I’m concerned, because again, it’s only because we are out that we are able to experience this type of grace towards each other because in my mentality, and the people that I knew, we were very militant about the way we conducted ourselves”, the actress said. “Suri!’ in a tone that sounded like they were telling an adult to get her s-t together”.

“‘Nursery’ was a charitable term for the motel room in the Quality Inn filled with cribs of crying, neglected babies, flies and the smell of dirty diapers”.

“You are much stronger than you believe”, Leah writes in a biography that has been heavily hyped in People magazine and on “Good Morning America”.

Tom stood there with that everything-is-great look plastered on his face even as the crowd grew uncomfortable.

5. You tell ’em, Tom! . After Remini’s daughter, Sofia, was born, high-ranking officials in the church advised that Remini should not react to any pain her daughter suffered, but instead offer a “Contact Assist”: placing the injured body part against the object that injured it. “So if she hit her leg on the corner of the coffee table, I was supposed to remain quiet and gently touch the hurt part of her leg to the exact spot on the table where she hit it – and continue to repeat that action until she said it was better”, Remini writes.

She says the Church was also all about Cruise’s Today show takedown of Brooke Shields, actually following it up with a presentation at the Shrine Auditorium, where they bragged that prescriptions for psychotropic drugs were down “something like 500 percent, thanks to Tom and his recent comments”. (Alley and Chmerkovskiy were partners in Season 12.) “Maks didn’t take it too hard”, Remini recalled. Leah and her husband, Angelo Pagan, had been invited to Tom and Katie’s home when Cruise decided he wanted to make cookies for his guests.
