So, once I gotten taken to school on the subject of reality TV by Leah Remini.
This was during her AWOL period, where I would call her out on something and then suddenly she couldn’t be found for several months. I texted her after I had watched her reality show. They had this therapist come in and they had this group therapy session with her family.
Family Therapy Session
I texted her that I was really impressed that you guys had the courage to do that and share that with people. She called and let her know, “I mean, that is pretty personal”, I told her “I got one problem with it, though. I think it was really terrible how you just dumped it on your mother and made it look like she was the villain of the piece; and somehow unintelligent and stupid and culpable for getting the whole family involved in Scientology.” I said, “I could literally see it on her, she looks terrible.”
Leah discloses it is all scripted and acted
Leah let’s the first part go, and just addresses the second part, because she is a narcissist. If you say anything that is perceived as anything other than worship for her, Leah’s going to jump on that. “Oh, no, no, no”, she says, “you didn’t get it at all. This wasn’t an actual therapy session. This whole thing was planned and scripted.” I said, “you literally acted?” And she said, “Yeah, we literally acted.” She said, “listen, that’s how it works honey. Doll, that’s how you do it. It’s not reality, I plan out all these episodes and we figure them out all beforehand who is going to do what and who is going to say what. What do you think, I’m just going to put a camera on myself?” I mean, that’s uneducated I am about reality TV, I don’t watch reality TV. I just assumed they put a camera in there and captured how people live their lives. But, she instructed me that that is not what it is all about. It is not reality, it is unreality. It is fake reality.
Leah admits it is all to poke a stick in Scientologists eyes
In fact, in the course of telling me this she told that they had planned and scripted it for purposes of having maximum ‘poke in the eye’ on David Miscavige and Scientology.
