Travolta: Scientology could have saved Smith
John Travolta says that if Anna Nicole Smith had followed the teachings of Scientology she’d be alive today.

The “Pulp Fiction” star says that if the late pin-up could have been saved if she had undergone treatment of Narconon, a controversial drug and detox treatment inspired by the writings of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. Smith and Travolta appeared together in the movie “Be Cool.”

Narconon supporters swear by the program, but a number of health professionals have questioned its effectiveness.

Personally, I think she would have had a chance if she had simply clapped her hands together and said "I DO believe in fairies! I do! I do!"

2. Scientologists were likely eager to recruit her (and any po$$ible inheritance).

4. If it couldn't save Battlefield Earth....
or the film about the lottery numbers scheme, or Sworfish, or Be Cool, what chance did she really have?

5. I'd say following any program might have saved her life. Though we still don't know what killed her.
If it turns out to be pneumonia or something congenital, then maybe nothing would have saved her.

6. I was going to say
A swift kick in the ass could have saved Smith, too.

Hindsight is 20-20.

I'm still waiting for them to call me about DNA tests to see if I'm the father of her child. I think they're getting to "K" last names soon...
