Tina Knowles Converts To Scientology After Marrying Richard Lawson [REPORT]

Beyonce's mom, Tina Knowles, is allegedly the next celebrity to convert to the Scientology religion.

One of the apparent conditions in Knowles' new marriage with Richard Lawson was that she would take his religion.

"The National ENQUIRER has learned that pals are 'freaking out' over the church finally getting a foothold into the showbiz couple's powerful empire, after actor Richard Lawson married Beyoncé's mom, Tina Knowles, on April 12 aboard a yacht in California. Beyonce's mom Tina and her new husband have already attended a string of Scientology events."

The Enquirer also alleged that a source said "Beyoncé is dead set against the religion, and was worried her mom is getting sucked in."

Last week John Travolta, who follows Scientology, addressed people who question the religion on Good Morning America.

"People really need to take time and read a book. You know, that's my advice. You can read 'New Slant on Life,' you can read 'Dianetics,'" Travolta, 61, said. " "I think if you really read it, you'll understand it, but unless you do that, you'll speculate, and I think that's a mistake to do that."

The religion is also practiced by celebrities Will Smith, his wife Jada Pinketh-Smith, and (most notably) Tom Cruise.
