Reports that Vinnie Barbarino, I mean, John Travolta, has broken with Scientology are false, according to People magazine, that well-known bible of religion news.

“There’s no change in the relationship between the Church of Scientology and John,” says Trovolta’s rep. “He is a member and it’s as it was, now and forever.”
