When I was working in Hollywood, the conventional wisdom was that people used to pretend to be Jewish to help their careers. Then people started going to Rehab to make connections. There were many dry movies (like the Phantom with Billy Zane) that were "substance free" so people pretended to be recovering drug addicts, even if they were not. Now people are pretending to be Scientologists to break in. Just ask Greta Van Sustren.
Actually I don't buy any of it. Obviously there is nepotism, but people in Hollywood would hire Charles Manson if they thought it would make them money. I don't think be a non-jewish, non-scientologist, non-recovering addict hurt my practice at all.
