The virtual time to get buzzed on the hot goss from Hollywood with Abby. It's the

0:06.0

virtual entertainment bus. Actress Leah Remini is suing the Church of Scientology. So she

0:12.6

dispiled a law student, California against the church for a whole slew of things. She posted

0:17.6

on Instagram, she said for 17 years, Scientology and David Miscavige, who's the leader of

0:23.7

the Church of Scientology, have suggested me to what I believe to be psychological torture

0:30.2

defamation, surveillance, harassment and intimidation significantly impacting my life and career.

0:38.1

I believe I'm not the first person targeted by Scientology in its operation, but I intend to

1:25.9

And because Tom Cruise is so closely tied with the Church of Scientology, he's expected to

1:31.6

probably be a witness in this case, which I know. You know, he's going to skydive into the

1:35.0

courthouse though. Mission impossible style. Maybe jump on some couches or two, but she basically,

1:42.1

she wants the Church of Scientology to cease and desist any practice of harassment, defamation and

1:47.5

any unlawful conduct against anyone they've labeled as a quote unquote enemy.

1:52.2

Yeah. So for those that don't know, David Miscavige, his wife Shelley has been missing since 2007.
