A Lot of people were scratching their heads when they saw Jennifer Lopez and Jim Carrey among the guests at Tom Cruise’s wedding to Katie Holmes last month in Italy, wondering what the possible connection could be.

Some assumed it was the super-agency CAA, which reps both Cruise and Carrey and used to handle J.Lo. But insiders say the mystery link among the superstars is actually the Church of Scientology.

“Jim is taking the introductory and beginner’s courses right now,” a source told Page Six. Another source notes that Lopez, a close friend of Scientologist Leah Remini, “has started using Scientology phrases and explains the church to people. Leah and Jennifer have been friends for years, and Leah has always talked to her about the church without pressuring her.

“We can see Scientology appealing to Jennifer because, in the early stages, it is a lot of self-help.”

However, Lopez’s husband, Marc Anthony, is a devout Catholic and is probably resistant to Scientology, which believes in space aliens but not a God.

Some observers speculate that Lopez, who has had trouble conceiving in the past, could be leaning to the Scientologists for help in having a baby.

Meanwhile, Hollywood bigwigs were awed at a display of “sheer rudeness” by Cruise at the premiere of “The Pursuit of Happyness” in Hollywood the other night.

Sony chief Amy Pascal “was introducing the movie, and during her speech Tom gets up, goes over to Will [Smith] and starts talking to him - and then says, ‘Hey, Katie! Come over here and say hi to Will!’ during Amy’s speech. It was in bad taste.”

Scientology seems to be drawing more and more celebrity interest by the minute. Other noted church followers include Kirstie Alley, John Travolta, Anne Archer, Chick Corea, Isaac Hayes and Priscilla Presley.

Okay seriously… I think something’s wrong with Marc…look at him… smile!  Of course, if my wife walked out of the house wearing our sheets - I might look like someone slapped me with a wet fish too.  Nevermind.

Is that a robe?  A dress?  A coat?  I’m so confused.

Close yo damn mouth!! You look like a freakin fish!

Katie Holmes was the one getting married on Saturday, but who was the biggest diva of the weekend? Jennifer Lopez!

Tom Cruise and Holmes kindly arranged for a private plane to bring some of their more famous friends to Italy for their wedding. But a source tells Us Weekly that, hours before Jada Pinkett Smith, Leah Remini and Jerry Maguire director Cameron Crowe boarded the chartered 757 to Rome, “Jennifer Lopez sent her assistant to secure seats by laying her belongings on all the best seats!”

Lopez also flew her hairstylist, Ken Pavés, into Rome and set him up at the posh Hotel Hassler to do her hair for the big day.

Meanwhile, it’s supposed to be the bride’s special weekend, but the singer made sure that all eyes were on her at a group dinner at the restaurant Nino on Thursday night. Says a source, “The November 16 welcome dinner was supposed to be casual. But J.Lo, of course, wore a gown. So much for casual.”

And the special treatment didn’t stop there. At 2:33 a.m. in the wee hours after the wedding, Lopez, 37, had a waiter sneak two doggie bags to her and husband Marc Anthony, 38, as they were on their way to the airport to return to the States.
