Bart Simpson Promotes Scientology
Feb. 2 2009, Published 1:35 p.m. ET
Nancy Cartwright, who provides the voice of Bart in The Simpsons, reportedly recorded a phone message to push Scientology using the famous voice.
According to The Washington Post, the long-time member of the church recorded a 60 second promotion to increase attendance at a Scientology event planned for Saturday.
The 51 year-old Cartwright, who revealed her identity in the speech, did much of it in Bart's voice, ending with "See you there, man!"
Although the Fox network didn't comment, Simpsons executive producer Al Jean said the show didn't authorize Cartwright's message, and that it has never "endorsed any religion, philosophy or system of beliefs any more profound than Butterfinger bars."
