Radar magazine⿿s upcoming April cover story  ⿿Scientology Under Siege,⿿  makes the case that Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith and Kimora Lee Simmons are the new celebrity faces of Scientology.

In the article, the magazine said, ⿿The Church has also set its sights on African Americans, opening up a center in Harlem in 2003 and making a strong play for Hollywood supercouple Will Smith and Jada Pinkett.⿿

Despite an absolute denial from Smith⿿s rep, sources close to Smith earlier told this column that the actor definitely is becoming a member of the religion.  ⿿He⿿s been getting more and more involved (in Scientology),⿿ said one source. ⿿And it isn⿿t just him, it⿿s definitely Jada, too.⿿

Not long ago Smith honored the practice of giving ⿿a wrap gift⿿ to crew members after filming ended for this summer⿿s comedy ⿿Hancock⿿, with a card good for a free personality test at any Scientology Center.
According to the upcoming story designer and Style Channel star Kimora Lee Simmons has been involved with the Church for years, even lending her recognizable visage to promotional materials used in a children’s school in 2006.The magazine points to a 2006 gathering where Scientology leader David Miscavige ⿿spoke glowingly of Kimora Lee Simmons⿿ efforts to distribute a personalized edition of Hubbard⿿s ⿿The Way to Happiness,⿿ featuring her image on the cover, to school kids in New Jersey.⿿ Simmons⿿ rep said that the recently pregnant designer/model is not a Scientologist.
 
The Radar article also covers the other celebs that take part in the religion, beyond the well known one’s like Kirstie Alley, Lisa Marie Presley and Jenna Elfman.

Some you might not have known about include musician Beck, former ⿿South Park⿿ chef Isaac Hayes (Hayes reportedly quit the show after it spoofed the religion), Juliette Lewis, Giovanni Ribisi (whose sister happens to be married to Beck), FNC reporter Greta Van Susteren and the voice of Bart Simpson, Nancy Cartwright.
