The actress-and-singer, whose father is a follower of the bizarre sci-fi cult, insists her seven-month-old twins Max and Emme would benefit from being educated at one of the controversial religion’s centres.

When asked if she would send her children to a Scientology school, Jennifer replied: “Yeah. I wouldn’t mind. Not at all. Because I know that the technologies that they have are very helpful… It’s all about communication. That’s the thing I really don’t like about talking about this.

“I do know so many great people who choose it as a lifestyle and really follow it and it is their religion… I just wish that people wouldn’t judge it without knowing what it is.”

Although Jennifer has denied she is a Scientologist, the 39-year-old star admits she draws on the religion – which also counts Tom Cruise and Jada Pinkett Smith among its followers – when she is feeling low.

She explained to website The Daily Beast: “I do know a lot about Scientology. And I know about the practices. I know all about what the technology is and it’s very helpful. So in a sense, yeah, you do call on it.”

In June, it was revealed Jada’s husband Will Smith had spent nearly $1 million on a private school that bases some of its education programmes on Scientology.

The I Am Legend actor gave the money to California’s New Village Academy of Calabasas, where the curriculum uses different educational theories including Study Technology – a learning method developed by the bizarre sci-fi cult’s late creator L. Ron Hubbard.

Will has denied he is a Scientologist.
