I cut Leah more slack because she was raised in the cult so she was brainwashed from an early age and didnt know better. People who join as adults like Cruose & Travolta I have zero sympathy for. Me too. That's the only reason I can justify watching Mad Men, because Elizabeth Moss was born into Scientology and doesn't know any other way to live.

Left $cientology because of her daughterAnd of course, the $cieno's have a rep that follows up with her comments (because they don't need to save face or anything) saying she's doing it for attention: Ethical lapses? HA! Yeah, because what you crazies do is ethical. As for being an attention seeker? Why because she's proclaiming exactly what other defects have been saying for years? It's just that you're dealing with one that is a higher profiled actress and you are back-peddling. Once more come to see the truth and have it impact their family in a way where they can't look at themselves in the mirror, they'll leave too.

I admit I was never a big Leah fan but since she left the cult my respect for her has skyrocketed. Also, she is really great on The Exe's.

Did anyone besides me watch her new reality show last night? I managed to (barely) make it through the first episode. I mean, it's just so bad. Leah mugs to the camera in every talking heads piece (because she's in everyone 'introducing' the members of her 'wacky' family) while each person in her family fills a niche: Mom is dumb (but sassy!), Sister is blunt (and sassy!), Daughter is precious (and...well, you get it).
They touched on them all leaving Scientology and how they lost "all their friends." But then they had a "thank you friends" party and there were a lot of people there, so she's obviously replaced them (and the party was a backyard party yet everyone was wearing suits and gowns).
I guess if you like Leah's "ball-busting bitch" persona then you might like this show, but every single person annoyed me.

I was a big fan of Leah's VH-1 Inside Out wedding and baby specials. I will give this new show a try.

She once bitched about women who refused to change their last name when they got married. She said unless the woman is an actress she needs to take her husband's last name.
So she landed back on my "fuck you" list.

It turns out some actresses did take their husbands' names in private life. From my understanding Jennifer Aniston was Jennifer Aniston Pitt and Demi Moore (who is still using her first husband's name) was open about being Mrs. Kutcher when she was married to Ashton. I think I heard Kelly Ripa say she uses "Consuelos" in her private life too. On the flip side you had Jamie-Lynn Sigler going by Jamie-Lynn DiScala before going back to using the name "Sigler" after her divorce. On the other hand, I've heard that some female academics want to keep their maiden name even after marriage especially if they've been published and have established a professional reputation under their maiden name. So, what's Leah's point? I'm confused.

Leah's point is generally irritating, but I'm more amused/baffled by the idea that acting is the only profession in which someone might want to solidify her "brand."

So she landed back on my "fuck you" list. *Sigh* Another celebrity who thinks she has the authority to tell other women how to live their lives. Look, celebrities. I know that you spend your days surrounded by people who tell you that the sun shines out of your assholes. After a few years of that, it's probably easy to start to believe that you're experts on everything and that the world will stop spinning if you don't bestow your all mighty opinions on us. But just stop. I don't need you to tell me what a horrible person I am because I didn't breastfeed (or have kids in the first place, put that in your pipe and smoke it) because you're the first women to ever become mothers. I don't need you to tell me that I can't possibly be a feminist because I like men and makeup. I don't want to hear you compare ANY aspect of your very comfortable careers to a crime like rape, because fuck you, that's why. I don't need to be shamed for not strictly adhering to my workout regimen because if you can do it, so can I, seeing as I have a job that requires a lot of my time and don't have an army of staff to free up some me time. I don't need to spend $500 a lb on Nepalese artisinal yak butter to spread on my vegan Gaia bread. And I don't need you to tell me that I MUST follow a practice that throughout history signified the transfer of property from one man to another. So sit down and shut up already. No1curr.

I've had an irrational hatred for this woman since she showed up on Saved By the Bell one summer and stood between my Zack/Kelly ship. Every time she turns up anywhere I find her distasteful, though I'm well aware that a lot of that is the teenage me holding a grudge. That said, I respect her for leaving the cult. I'm also glad to see she has a reality show. Hopefully that means she won't appear on anything I actually watch for awhile.
