Most of the celebs in the cult are just poor souls with self esteem and vulnerability issues (not rare for people in the arts actually) They came to Hollywood with a lot of dreams and ambitions and end up being rejected on a daily basis, hustling for a job. Specially if lacking of talent, like 99% of the people looking for fame and money. So they end up with addiction problems, alcohol and drugs, depression and anger issues. Here’s where cults and people like the Mastersons have a fertile ground to recruit: they offer them the Narcanon program, their self help shitty courses for bust their confidence and treat them like royalty, as if they were already A listers at the Celebrity Center. They talk as themselves as their “family”. They might even give them a role on some shitty show where a scio has a say (go look at the cast and crew of shows like The Ranch, My name is Earl, the Jenna Elfman shows, etc) so thats how the Mastersons recruited people like Laura Prepon, Michael Pena, Ben Foster (who grew up in a cult in Iowa himself). They’ve been trying lately with Dakota Johnson. And so so many others. Is rare the working actor who hasn’t been approached by the cult in some way over the years. One important thing to note: as Leah Remini confirmed, when a cult member recruits a celeb, even if a B/C lister, they get major incentives, whether is by sea.org members at their disposal or even cash.
