Washington
(ANI):
Tom
Cruise
had
his
sights
set
on
Jennifer
Garner
before
beginning
his
whirlwind
romance
with
Katie
Holmes,
according
to
a
controversial
biography.
In
Tom
Cruise:
An
Unauthorized
Biography,
British
journalist
and
writer
Andrew
Morton
claims
that
the
Mission
Impossible
star
tried
his
luck
with
Garner
before
making
Holmes
his
wife.
Morton
alleges
that
Cruise
constantly
left
voicemails
on
Garner"s
phone
asking
if
she
knew
what
freedom
was.
However,
according
to
the
author,
the
actor"s
advances
were
turned
down,
reports
Usmagazine.com.
The
biography
also
claims
that
Holmes
signed
a
contract
to
commit
to
Scientology
and
that
her
father
brokered
a
high-paying
pre-nup.
The
Church
of
Scientology,
which
appears
to
be
the
real
subject
of
the
book,
has
issued
an
extensive
statement
dismissing
some
of
the
book's
most
sensational
allegations.
It
snubbed
the
contents
of
the
book
as
"vicious
sensationalism
of
the
lowest
order" filled
with
"false
and
scandalous
allegations".
"Insinuations
that
Mr
Cruise
is
second-in-command
of
the
Church
are
not
only
false,
they
are
ludicrous,"
the
statement
added.
