CSI Actor Finds New Fame in Anti-Scientology Role

BEGHE WHOOP Jason (Photo: IMDb.com) Jason Beghe, a veteran of such series as Numb3rs, CSI: NY, and Cane, might soon find his biggest fame to date coming from a three-minute YouTube clip, in which he rails on Scientology as being "fucked up."

The Village Voice speaks to him for a story today, and Beghe capitalizes on his YouTube and Xenu TV fame, describing how he learned about Scientology from Jenna Elfman's husband (then boyfriend) Bodie Elfman. Elfman gave Beghe a copy of What is Scientology, which hinted at how to achieve super powers and achieve clarity, an idea that appealed to the actor at the time. "Give me some Scientology, man," he says he thought.
