Erika Christensen praises Scientology in this new interview, and while we knew the 30-year-old Parenthood star practiced the religion since she was a child, we had no idea she'd get this defensive about it!

Christensen chats with fellow actress Joy Bryant for her web series Across the Board, and Christensen discusses what the religion means to her and she dismisses claims that the church is a cult.

"If I had to sum it up, the goal of Scientology is giving the person back to themselves. Like, your own power of choice," she says. Christensen explained she was introduced to Scientology as a young girl, as her parents are also Scientologists. So what about the misconceptions about the church that came to light when A-list Scientologist Tom Cruise divorced wife Katie Holmes? Christensen jokes of the claims, "One, that we are some kind of closed group. Two, that we are the Hollywood religion and three, that we worship rabbits."

Vanity Fair published an article in September claiming Cruise auditioned ladies to be his wife, and correspondent Maureen Orth claimed that the project to was headed by Shelly Miscavige, wife of the church's top official David Miscavige. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Lawrence Wright also attacked the religion in his new book Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood, & the Prison of Belief, in which he examined the Church’s founder, L. Ron Hubbard, the church’s finances and its relationships with celebrities.

Let's hope she's a better mom this time around!

Teen Mom star Jenelle Evans is pregnant with her second child, and now she's showing off the beginnings of her baby belly on Twitter!

"Baby bumpppp. My little angel," she captioned the snapshot.

Although the pregnancy wasn't planned, the 21-year-old told MTV she understands why people will have a negative reaction to the news and wants to prove them wrong.

"I know a lot of people will say we're not ready or judge me from my past. I want to prove to everyone that I can do this. This wasn't planned, but it happened so we're taking it as we go. Courtland and I are happy and excited now. We have our own place, we're married, and we're both working. We know having a child can be difficult, but we're going to do our best," she said.

The newly married reality star's son Jace, from a previous relationship, lives with her mother Barbara.

Let's hope she sticks to her word!

Kim Kardashian and sister Kourtney returned to L.A. after an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman.

The pregnant 32-year-old reality star wore a tuxedo-style ensemble with patterned peep toe heels. Yikes, Kim ... those feet!

Sister Kourtney opted for something a bit more hairy. Well, at least she's warm while pushing baby Penelope.

During their Letterman appearance, Kourtney defends Kim after Dave asks, "Now, you're still married to the former husband, Kris Humphries?" Then alludes to Kim marrying Kris for publicity. Kourt says, "I think if she was going to do it for publicity, she'd pick someone that people knew!"

Whoa, never a dull moment with these two!

LeAnn Rimes is comparing her recent bouts of depression to "a roller-coaster ride."

During an interview with ET, the stunning 30-year-old country superstar tells Nancy O'Dell:

"All of the emotions that you feel ... it's like a roller-coaster ride. Every emotion changes. What you have to learn to deal with is you have to learn how to ride the roller coaster. So I think where people end up doing something so drastic is when they felt like there's no ride to take anymore."

As for whether she fears infidelity will occur in her current relationship with hubby Eddie Cibrian, LeAnn adds:

"I would be ignorant to say, and everyone else would think I am a liar if I didn't say yes, and I have at times."

LeAnn's album Spitfire is due out April 30. Two emotionally powerful singles have already been released ... "Borrowed" and "What Have I Done."

Paris Hilton and her equally gorgeous beau River Viiperi arrived back home from Mexico with big smiles and lots of luggage.

Love that both are rocking leather jackets. Biker-chic, baby!

While the twosome were south of the border, Paris snapped super sexy pics in her tiny bikini. Talk about stunning!

These two are still going strong after almost a year, and we couldn't be happier for them!

Taylor Swift went under the knife "back in April" to get her breasts enhanced, according to In Touch.

While walking the red carpet at the Golden Globes, the 23-year-old country cutie showed off a very curvy body in a backless Donna Karen Atelier gown.

The gossip magazine claims Swift went from a size A to a B cup.

Check out the below photo of Taylor from the 2008 American Music Awards showing less ample assets. Taylor's rep has yet to issue a response to the boob job claims.

Let the catfights begin!

During the season premiere of American Idol Season 12, Nicki Minaj and fellow judge Mariah Carey wasted no time showing each other who's boss.

At one point, Mimi begins to brag that her holiday hit "All I Want for Christmas" is still number one after 17 years. Nicki's response at the 2:18 mark ... "She's a b**ch, she's a b**ch ..."

Hopefully Keith Urban and Randy Jackson will be able to keep the judging panel under control. Meow!

Mariah watched the premiere from her bed while snuggling with daughter Monroe. Adorbs!

Bradley Cooper attended the Madrid premiere of Silver Linings Playbook on Wednesday evening, and the 38-year-old actor looks quite handsome here, but he revealed a few days ago that he permed his hair for a new film role!

"We did a camera test today and we were playing with the idea of [me] having curly hair," Coop told E!'s Marc Malkin at the BAFTA Tea reception. "Like rollers! Oh, yeah bro, like rollers in the hair!"

The test was for a new flick with Silver Linings director David O. Russell about Abscam, the FBI's 1970s operation that led to the conviction of U.S. congressmen. The film will also star Christian Bale and Jeremy Renner. Sounds interesting!
