Victoria Beckham Says No to Scientology

Victoria Beckham is telling pals she has no intention of joining the Church of Scientology, despite her close friendship with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

"There’s no way I’d spend any money on that nonsense," she told a friend recently about the faith founded by author L. Ron Hubbard.

Says another pal: "It’s completely laughable that there’s even talk of her becoming a Scientologist. Just because people are friends with someone doesn’t mean they do everything they do. Scientology is like kabbala in that it’s become all about money. Kabbala bracelets are now $28! It’s a joke." In July, "Posh Spice" and her husband, David Beckham, are moving to California, where he scored a reported five-year, $250 million contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team. None of which will be used to ward off thetans or Xenu, the evil space emperor central to Scientology doctrine.

As the pal puts it: "Scientology is an expensive religion; Victoria is too cheap to convert."

Who says money can’t buy you friends? Tom Cruise did with his large donations, and now Scientologists are calling him the Jesus of Scientology. Victoria doesn’t need friends like that. I just can’t help but like David and Victoria.
