Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes held a star-studded housewarming party at their new recently-renovated $35 million Beverly Hills estate this weekend. What I found surprising were some of the famous names on the guest list who you may not know were friends of the worlds most famous Scientologists. We’re not suggesting that just because they showed up at a party they’re getting pitched auditing sessions, but there’s at least one couple on the list that I would think might want to distance themselves from Tom and Katie:
Guests included movie industry execs, Scientology dignitaries and celebrities. Eva Longoria Parker, Kimora Lee and Djimon Hounsou, Tobey Maguire,Rita Wilson, Oprah Winfrey,Gail King, Kyra Sedgwick, Kirstie Alley and Victoria Beckham-who arrived without hubby David Beckham–were among the first to arrive.
Also in attendance–Cruise “frenemy” Brooke Shields, Jennifer Lopez and Keri Russell.
Eyewitnesses tell OK! that the Cruises pulled out all the stops for the party, enlisting good pal and renowned chef Wolfgang Puck to cater the event. From the street, the sounds of horns pierced the warm night air as a full orchestra played big-band music throughout the night, at one point striking up a rendition of the Mission Impossible theme song.
[From OK! Magazine]
So there were “Scientology dignitaries” there as well as Kimora Lee Simmons, whom Scientology head David Miscavige once claimed was distributing Scientology pamphlets among inner city youth. Kimora denied that claim, and said through her rep that she wasn’t a Scientologist, so what’s she doing hanging out at a party with them? If I was famous and some cult leader tried to tie me to his organization I would keep a wide berth. Maybe she was trying to show there were no hard feelings and has ambitions that Cruise could help her with, but it sounds more to me like Miscavige’s claims had some element of truth to them. He also claimed that Coca Cola, Philips Electronics, and 7-Eleven outlets in other countries were distributing Scientology literature too, which was false according to all those companies, but something tells me they got to Simmons. She might be hiding her involvement like Will Smith, and it could come out eventually that she’s sinking her wealth into the cult too. It’s either that or buy a bunch more purses and shoes.
Shown are arrivals at Tom and Katie’s party on Saturday, including the Beckhams, Kirstie Alley and her daughter, Rita Wilson, Oprah Winfrey and Gayle, Rita Wilson, and Kyra Sedgwick hiding her face. Thanks to WENN.

I thought Xenu was Scientology’s enemy? I could be wrong.
-
Considering the time Oprah spent fellaciating Tom on one of her shows recently, I’m not surprised she’s there or a closet Scientologist.
-
I wonder if some of these people think they can just sort of dabble in it for the career benefits and not make a lifetime commitment.
-
Where was Will Smith & Co.? Maybe he’s trying to put a little distance between them after people found out about his school “agenda”.
Also, I’m assuming Kirstie got the invite through the cult, right? What a whale of a woman, in all aspects.
-
Jody that occurred to me too about Will Smith trying to make it seem like he’s not too tight with the Cruises, but maybe he arrived early or late and avoided being photographed.
-
Good call CB. We need more dedicated paps– someone who is gonna stick it out at an event for the duration. I NEED TO KNOW EVERY GUEST DAMMIT!
-
Kirstie Alley looks like John Waters Muse “Divine” in that pic. Google it if you don’t know who that is.
-
Kimora might be dabbling in the principles but if you think homegirl is giving up a sizable chunk of her paper to a bunch of flakes, ummmmm yeah no.
-
@elisha. What a terrible insult to Divine.
!!
-
“Friends of Xenu” being given a “wide berth” — LOL.
But seriously, Cruise is C to the Razy.
-
I don’t know why, but it really irks me that Tom Cruise always has the Mission Impossible theme playing everywhere he goes. It isn’t as though the show or concept didn’t exist before Cruise’s half assed portrayal of Ethan. As for all of these celebrities and Scientology, let them get fleeced by the “church” . I don’t care what they do with their money, unless they want to hand it over to me, then I will take an interest!
-
It looks like MILEY “i’m an innocent” CYRUS with Kirstie !!
i wonder who brought the KOOL AID to the party !
-
It must really suck for their non-$cientologist friends to always get lumped in with the other nut jobs. But I guess thats just what comes along with being friends with them
-
well of course oprah was there. that woman would go to the opening of a drugstore if she thought it would benefit her in some way. but keri russell - please tell me you went only because you were a co-star of tom’s! i love her and don’t want her to become brainwashed, too.
-
Calm down people, you may get an invite next time. LOL Jody, you cracked me up with your comment.
-
They ruined Kyra Sedgwick for me.
-
I don’t get it…what’s so bad about Scientology anyway?
-
Lisa, your new to this site right?
search the net for info on Scientology, you’ll see what it’s like, and why most of us here on CB think it’s horrid
-
Really Virginia? “The Closer” didn’t ruin Kyra for you? I only saw the last 5 minutes of one episode, but in that 5 minutes all she did was hide behind her desk, and cry while she unwrapped a ding-dong and then ate it. Needless to say I didn’t tune in again, but maybe I was too hasty, or maybe I just don’t like ding-dongs…who knows…
-
did tom invite any male friends?
did katie invite any friends her age?
maybe they don’t want to compete?
he wants to be the best looking guy in the room and she wants to be the young ingenue
their guest list always seems desperate -
Not sure but that list seems like stars only but I guess there other people. No need to mention no-body guests.
Scientology fleeces the rich, serves them right. They would be spending the money on drugs anyway.

man, flush your money elsewhere

@Lisa
Really?! You haven’t heard about the atrocities committed by this cult? Either you’ve been on a long vacation or you are already an OT VII.

Eloise and Lisa: Yes, Xenu is the “evil intergalactic warlord” who placed aliens into DC 10s and exploded them in volcanoes on Earth. The exploded alien souls, who died in pain thanks to Xenu’s evil, are embedded within all of us and the only way to get rid of them and become perfectly happy is to give all of your money to Scientology (Those dumbass followers of the Scientology scam really believe this shit. I mean, seriously–are you fucking kidding me? haaaaaaaaaaa). Anyhow, Xenu is the boogeyman of the Scientology rip-off scam. They only became a “religion” to get tax-exempt status. Those fuckers need to be stripped of tax-exempt status….
-
Am I the only one who wonders why the article says Posh arrived without David Beckham, yet the photo shows “the Beckhams” arriving together in a car…? Details matter, people. If you don’t pay attention, Xenu can sneak up on you and steal your soul.
-
I used to look up to Orpah - but for the last few years, the girl stinks, and so does the horse Gayle, she rode in on.
Be afraid of the Scientologists. I’m not surprised at the guest list - those who showed up have the same mindset that spewed out of Sharon Stone recently - blaming China’s karma for the earthquake (though state corruption no doubt is responsible for the poorly built schools).
The Scientologists think their fame is somehow the result of their magnificence. Boycott these losers films, tv shows, magazines, cds, etc and their fame will disappear. We have the power.
-
MissKitteh, look closer. That dude is so not david Beckham.
-
PLEASE MAKE THEM ALLLLL GO AWAY.. oh and take BRANGELINA and their SPAWN too !!!!
-
Oprah is probably a scientologist too.
About the Sharon Stone thing, I remember scientologist Jeena Elfman saying that AIDS was a choice. -
Jenna Elfman is a Scientologist? Not that I’m a huge fan, but I figured her for more of a hippie– I guess Dharma influenced my view too much, no pun intended.

Oh Kyra, not you too!!! Can’t you see scientology is just using you to get to Kevin.
P.S.
I’m really very done with Oprah, and her piggy face.
