Stamos said it was both his acting idol, John Travolta, and a "hot girl" he met in acting class, who inspired him to go to a meeting at the church's famed center on Hollywood Boulevard.
John Stamos was nearly a member of the Church of Scientology.
Stamos was just 17 years old when he said he was allegedly recruited to join the Church by a "hot girl" in his acting class.
"With me, I was in an acting class and there was a hot girl, [who] said to me, 'You know we're all meeting at this [place] on Hollywood Boulevard, you should come after [class],'" Stamos shared. "I was working at my dad's restaurant at the time and I said, 'Dad, I gotta go.' So, I went and it was the Scientology building."
While Travolta joined the Church of Scientology in 1975, Stamos said he ultimately never made it past one of the introductory sessions.
Here's what Stamos says about the experience.
