Leah Remini decided that nothing is going to hold her back when it comes to slamming Scientology. Now, the she is waging a war versus Scientology, and Tom Cruise, one of the biggest faces in the industry, was at the receiving end, US Magazine reported.

Remini's book was released on Tuesday. It was entitled "Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology". Most of the contents of the book were already out in the open, owing to a promotional campaign, said USA Today.

Leah Remini made a series of claims against Tom Cruise and Scientology leaders, in which she alleged that he had a secretly selected girlfriend Nazanin Boniadi, an actress. The "King of Queens" star met Bonaidi in 2003 and befriended her.

"Then in late 2004, she disappeared," Remini claimed in a report by US Weekly.

"I wondered if Naz had gone back to her 'real life.' Years later, I found out what had happened to Naz during this time. She underwent a confidential mission for the church, where she thought she was being prepared for a special humanitarian project, but ended up with the role of Tom's girlfriend."

It was during that time when Tom Cruise had spilt from Penelope Cruz after a relationship of three years. According to Remini, the church took on itself to find a new girlfriend for Tom.

She also said they convinced Bonaidi to break up with her then-boyfriend and also forced her to make changes to her physical self to make her 'worthy' of Cruise.

Her orthodontic braces were removed, her hair color was darkened, and Greg Wilhere, a senior Sea Org executive took her on a very expensive shopping spree in Beverly Hills to buy a new wardrobe for her mysterious meetings with 'dignitaries,' according to Remini. 

Bonaidi allegedly lived with Tom Cruise while she was dating him for three months. Their relationship was a secret and Bonaidi was asked by the church to report anything 'non-optimum' in Cruise so that the church can help him.  After three months, the relationship was ended by the church without Cruise's involvement.

Bonaidi confided in a friend who wrote a report on Bonaidi, Leah Remini said. As a punishment, the church made her do menial tasks and was escorted everywhere she went, US Weekly reported.

"She needs to move on with her life instead of pathetically exploiting her former religion, her former friends and other celebrities for money and attention to appear relevant again," Scientology News said.
