Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson, is a known Scientologist. That fact didn’t bother anyone much because she mostly kept it to herself. Things have changed, however.

It seems Nancy has been robocalling using the voice of Bart Simpson to promote her speaking engagement at the Scientology Center.

This little stunt is going to backfire. A record number of people could show up to hear her talk about OT 7, but half of them will want her to do the whole thing in the voice of Bart Simpson. And out of that half you have the hardcore Simpsons fanboys who are only interested in hearing Nancy repeat what Bart said in Episode #327. When it’s time for the Q&A portion, there’s a good chance it will turn into a mini Comic-Con. And you know at one point someone’ s going to say, “Worst. Speech. Ever.”

Nancy Cartwright, who does the voice of Bart Simpson among others, donated $10 million last year to Scientology for their Global Salvage effort which “aims to de-aberrate Earth”; code for “ridding mankind of psychological ills and other ‘aberrant’ behavior.” To put the donation in perspective, the face of Scientology, Tom Cruise, only donated $5 million in an installment plan. Page Six posted up numbers of other celebrity donations.

Nancy Cartwright, 50, Patron Laureate Award: $10 million.
Kirstie Alley, 57, Diamond Meritorious Award: $5 million.
John Travolta, 53, Gold Meritorious Award: $1 million.
Kelly Preston, 45, Gold Meritorious Award: $1 million.
Priscilla Presley, 62, Patron Award: $50,000.

Page Six estimates Nancy’s earnings at $5.5 million a year for The Simpsons. $5.5?! That Tom Cruise is a cheap bastard. L. Ron Hubbard is probably rolling in his grave. There’s no way they can battle Thetans with that little. After they squirrel away a few dollars to their off shore bank accounts for a rainy day, there will only be $10 left. You can’t even buy dinner at a nice restaurant with that.
