Andrew Keegan Denies Claims That He Was Running a ‘Cult’: Inside the Full Circle Community

Andrew Keegan recently went on the ​Pod Meets World podcast to shut down claims that the ​Full Circle community was a cult, nor was he the leader.

In his early 20s, the 10 Things I Hate About You star moved to Venice Beach, California, where he was taken by the “hippie” vibe and sense of community. “I was connected with these folks and we had this opportunity,” he told the “Pod Meets World” podcast, explaining that he spent tens of thousands of dollars to renovate an old Hare Krishna temple in 2014. (The Vice piece mentioned crystals, synchronicity and ayahuasca, with Andrew noting, “Everyone’s on the love agenda.”) Reflecting back, the 7th Heaven star insisted Full Circle had “no doctrine” and he never was a cult leader.
