- Brendan Tighe, a former Scientologist, appeared on NBC's "Megyn Kelly Today" on Wednesday.
- Tighe said that while he worked with the church, he saw a report revealing that Scarlett Johansson had supposedly auditioned to be in a relationship with Tom Cruise.
- He said that the report mentioned that the audition "didn't go well" and another Scientologist, "Parenthood" actress Erika Christensen, was told to distance herself from Johansson.
- The Church of Scientology International told "Today" that "the 'access' he [Tighe] boasts of having was largely limited to viewing security cameras from a guard booth."
- In a statement to INSIDER, Johansson said: "The very idea of any person auditioning to be in a relationship is so demeaning; I refuse for anyone to spread the idea that I lack that kind of integrity. Only a man aka Brendan Tighe would come up with a crazy story like that."
