Celebrities Who Got Involved with Scientology

Mimi Rogers, an accomplished actress known for Someone to Watch Over Me and The Rapture, played a pivotal role in Scientology’s celebrity history. She introduced Tom Cruise to the church during their brief marriage in the late 1980s, a connection that dramatically increased Scientology’s visibility in Hollywood.

Though Rogers was once a prominent Scientologist, her relationship with the church eventually faded after her divorce from Cruise. She later distanced herself, reportedly critical of its influence. Despite her departure, her role in bringing Cruise into Scientology remains one of the most significant moments in the church’s celebrity story.
