Revealed she enjoys 'cultivating' relationships

An old video has been unearthed showing Smallville star Allison Mack promoting her alleged sex cult NXIVM.

In the 2013 YouTube clip, titled Allison Mack Q & A -- You Asked, I Answered, the actress, 35, couldn't help but gush about Jness, a smaller faction of the controversial sect which she described as a "women's empowerment group.

But police believe the sector was created by Mack’s cult leader Keith Raniere, 57, so he could allegedly take advantage of women sexually, and that Mack was in charge of “recruiting attractive young women who could meet Raniere’s sexual preferences.”

"It's the most challenging thing I've ever done because it consists of working with a group of people who are totally interdependent," Mack said in the video. "We're all working together and no one is ever punished or told that they're wrong or bad."

Authorities believe that the actress -- who on April 20 was arrested for sex trafficking and forced labor conspiracy -- helped to attract women into the cult.

"Literally seeing people's life path completely turn 180 degrees, where in one moment they really felt like this was all that they had and this was all they could do, and then they come through Jness and start working with us and in our community and it's like a whole other life is born through the new experience of themselves and that is incredibly satisfying and gratifying thing to do," Mack gushed in the footage.

Tellingly, she revealed that her role in the group is to help bring people together so they could "have a good experience somewhere, doing something."

"I love organising spaces and experiences with people I care for the most, that cultivate good relationships," Mack said in the video. "It's interesting because that's what I kind of do with Jness, the women’s organisation that I work with.

"We use these tools and these structures in order to organise situations and circumstances for women to come together and create incredible relationships."

The video comes after a Brooklyn court released Mack on a $6.5 million bail on the condition that she remains on house arrest at her parents home in California. She is due back in court on May 3.
