The title of Bill Maher's satirical documentary, Religulous, is derived by combining the words "religious" and "ridiculous."
Is it a ridiculous thought that Religulous will be nominated for an Academy Award? Apparently not according to almost 40% or respondents to a public opinion poll conducted on the Vizu Answers research network prior to the film hitting theaters.
If you've seen it, let us know if you think Religulous deserves an Oscar?
Brigitte Bardot was convicted last month in France for provoking discrimination
and racial hatred by writing that Muslims are destroying France.
Apparently the French courts saw something that most other people did not see in Bardot's remarks. According to recent public opinion research on the Vizu Answers network, about three times as many people thought that the former pin-up girl should not even have been prosecuted.
Visual inspection of the vote map does, however, suggest that a slightly greater percentage of the European population my have agreed that prosecuting Bardot was just.
Questions have been swirling about whether Will Smith will become a Scientologist.
Back in December, Shaun Robinson of Access Hollywood asked Smith the loaded question, “What about Scientology do you embrace?”
“I was introduced, [to] it by Tom and I’m a student of world religion,” Smith said. “I was raised in a Baptist household, I went to a Catholic school, but the ideas of the Bible are 98 percent the same ideas of Scientology, 98 percent the same ideas of Hinduism and Buddhism.”
Will even admitted in Men's Vogue that he agrees with the basic tenets of Scientology.
Still, in a poll completed about a month ago on the Vizu Answers research network, 60% of respondents did not think that Will Smith would become a Scientologist. However, since then new information has come out that Will and his wife are plowing over $1 million into a school with ties to Scientology. Maybe those basic tenets are starting to sink in.
Wouldn't it be great if the rumors that Tom's wife, Katie Holmes Cruise, was impregnated with sperm from L. Ron Hubbard and that little Suri Cruise was the result? Suri would become the daughter of Scientology and Tom would finally have a chance to recapture the crown of craziest person in Hollywood from Britney Spears - at least for a day or two.
Alas, most people say it ain't so.
