J.Lo is not a Scientologist, but her dad is!

In a recent interview with NBC 6, Jennifer Lopez is quick to defend Scientology even though she claims that she is not a Scientologist but in fact a devout Catholic.
The reason for her defense for a religion she is not part of?, her close friends Leah Remini, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are Scientologist plus her own dad has been a devout Scientologist for the last 20 years. In the interview, J. Lo expresses how she thinks its "sad" and "weird" that people want to portray the religion in such a negative way.
Here is part of the interview:

Lopez also brought that fashion sense to what has been touted as the wedding of the decade in Italy -- Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

"It was a great celebration of their love," she said. "It was good. It was beautiful."

Top Hollywood brass attended the wedding, including J.Lo's and Anthony and Lopez's close friend Leah Remini who, along with Cruise, is a Scientologist.

When asked about what she thought about the negative perception some people have about Scientology, Lopez replied, "I, myself, am Catholic. But it's just sad that people would look at it (Scientology) in that way."

J.Lo also has a personal connection to the Church of Scientology.

"My dad has been a Scientologist for 20 years," she said. "It's weird people want to paint it in a negative way."
