After reports that Scientology officials auditioned women for him to marry, Tom Cruise has called the allegations "lies."
A representative for the newly divorced actor says, "'Lies in a different font are still lies - designed to sell magazines.'
According to Vanity Fair, Scientologists interviewed dozens of women to ensure they posed no threat to the church or the 50-year-old himself.
The report claims that top church official David Miscavige's wife, Shelly, helmed the project, telling Scientologist actresses they were being considered for a role in a new training video.
After vetting the candidates, Mrs. Miscavige chose Iranian-born Nazanin Boniadi, who was told to break up with her current boyfriend. The plan went as far as flying the British actress to New York for dinner, ice skating, and a night with the "Mission Impossible" star.
Alas, things didn't go according to plan. The actress made such blunders as not reciprocating Cruise's romantic displays and being disrespectful to higher ranking Scientologists.
Though Scientology officials vehemently deny the story, "Crash" director Paul Haggis has come forward to support Nazini's version of events. He says, "Naz was embarrassed by her unwitting involvement in this incident and never wanted it to come out, so I kept silent."
