Leah Remini is not surprised Scientology celebs avoid her since she’s left the religion.
The actress told a caller on Watch What Happens Live!, that she wasn’t surprised when actress Elisabeth Moss walked out on her TCA acceptance speech last year.
“No, unfortunately, I wish I was surprised, but that is kind of the teachings of Scientology,” Remini said. “To not watch or listen to anything or anyone who speaks out against the abuses of it. They literally run away. It’s really sad to watch it because it’s like I really don’t mean them any harm but I know how they feel.”
She added, “I remember how I felt when I saw people who I was taught and brainwashed into believing were the devil, so it’s sad to see them react to me that way.”
Andy Cohen asked Remini if she’s ever ran into any celebs who are still a part of the religion, she told him yes, but they run away.
Remini was on the show to promote her new movie “Second Act” with best friend, Jennifer Lopez.
