We noticed that the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce recently announced nominations are open again for the next crop of stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. That got us thinking about the names you find on Hollywood Boulevard and looking at who got stars and when. (Surely, you’ve gone down this rabbit hole yourself, […] 
It did occur to us, when we watched Scientology leader David Miscavige open four long-delayed “Ideal Org” projects in quick succession in Austin, Mexico City, Chicago, and Paris, that it cleared the decks of new […] 
[Deadline’s illustration when they broke the news] We want to thank the numerous readers who sent us links to news breaking out all over the place about Rebecca Minkoff, her Scientology upbringing, and Real Housewives of New […] 
[Leah Remini and defendant David Miscavige] We’re still stunned by what happened yesterday in Los Angeles, where Scientology leader David Miscavige sent his personal attorney Jeffrey Riffer down to Superior Court before a scheduled hearing in Jane Doe’s forced-marriage […]

Today, after five months of back-and-forth with East Grinstead Town Council over their close association with the Church of Scientology, I finally set foot in the local government offices for the first time for a face-to-face meeting with two elected […] 
[Last time, Val Ross told us about working as a spy at the FBI after its raid on Scientology in 1977. She’s working on a subsequent installment in her tale, but in the meantime sent us this fascinating look at what she’s going through right now.] Since 2013 I’ve been working with an attorney who is […]
