Anna Nicole is still on ice, awaiting a proper burial.  It hasn't stopped actor John Travolta inserting himself into the cirque de Anna, allegedly claiming Scientology and its Narconon program could have saved her.

The Wild Hogs star has allegedly decided to use her death as an opportunity to promote the controversial Scientology drug rehab methods, and is claiming it could have saved the Smith's life.

The most recent findings reported by the National Enquirer claim it was pneumonia, not drugs, that killed her.

According to UK website Metro, Travolta allegedly said: "It's so sad. We could have helped her with Narconon but didn't get a chance to. I wish we had."

Narconon allegedly has stringent methods of detoxification which include an intensive running, large doses of vitamins and sauna sessions, designed to sweat out drugs and other stuff from the body.

Scientologists claim Narconon is effective, its critics say it is merely a front to recruit the vulnerable to the fold.

How sick of him to use this womans death to promote his cults drug program. No insurance will pay for this and most doctor's will tell you it's very unsafe.
He could have saved her? He did 'Be Cool' and she did also. Why didn't he try to say her then?

Of course the sickest part is he say's he could have saved her from this overdose when no finding of death has come out yet. So he seems to have no problem trashing a dead person to promote his scientology cult.

You are a fool if you think he used it to promote Scientology. John wouldn't do that, but media would ask the question whether he thought so, then print it in the paper that it's just a front. Media are good at that. Narconon isn't and never was a front for Scientology and wasn't even started by a Scientologist, but a prisoner in New Mexico who read some of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard's works and wanted to use it to help others and it developed into Narconon and is very successful. Those who oppose it are connected with vested interests. If you have ever worked in the anti-drug field or drug rehab area, you'll find it's rife with them. I've worked with Scientologists' anti-drug campaign and works and it's very good and it doesn't promote people to become Scientologists, just helps without asking for return. In a cynical world some people might not believe it, but I don't care. I know whether or not I've helped.

JeraldR bashes anything Scientology related on the net. He should spend some of his obviously amble free time helping people with addiction to kick the habit, instead of criticizing those actually doing something about the problem.

Well, well!!!!!

Even the almighty John Travolta has to get on the bandwagon about Anna Nicole Smith.

Boy it takes all kinds!

Just to sell his Religion or should I say money grabbing faith, he is sounding off about saving Anna Nicole. John give it a rest will you, only after her death do you come forward with piteful statement to raise more money for YOUR so called church.

I have always loved you and your movies, especially, because you never took sides relating to church ideas or other controverseries.

But now I will never watch another movie of yours or even an interview. You are just the same as the rest of the Hollywood set that use their status to try and gain something for their whatever. You are just another Tom Cruise boy with nothing else to do but cash in on other's sorrow and situation. Pity you and all others like you.

Shut the hell up, you're just an anti-religious shill and nobody cares if you're going to see his movies or not.

Part of the same ilk that bashes Tom Cruise. Pathetic.

Most ironic that scientology or narconon did not help John's son, Jett, who died from a head injury sustained during a seizure. Where were the 'OT powers' and Hubbard's 'workable technology'? Could it be that both those things are just frauds?
