Leah Remini Responds to Jerrod Carmichael's Joke About Missing Scientology Member Shelly Miscavige

Leah Remini responded to Jerrod Carmichael‘s joke about missing Scientology member Shelly Miscavige at the 2023 Golden Globes.

Jerrod referenced Shelly, the wife of Scientology leader David Miscavige, who has been missing for over 15 years.

The 35-year-old comedian set up the hoke with a handful of trophies in his arms. “I found these three Golden Globe Awards that Tom Cruise returned. Look, I’m just the host, briefly, or whatever, but I have a pitch: I think, maybe, we take these three things and exchange them for the safe return of Shelly Miscavige,” he quipped.

Leah responded on Twitter and said, “Thank you Jerrod Carmichael! Where is Shelly?? #GoldenGlobes2023 #GoldenGlobes.”

In 2013, Leah left Scientology and filed a missing person’s report with the LAPD on Shelly, who had already been missing eight years at the time.

In 2016, Leah launched an hourlong docuseries, Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath in order to “share the shocking truth about Scientology,” the secretive, controversial church that she herself was a member of for years.
