Posted on LukeisBack.com: Pastor Melissa Scott married the long time televangelist Gene Scott in 2000 when he was 70 and she was 32. He died of cancer and left her rich with property, horses, bank accounts and his ministry.

Rumor has it that Pastor Melissa Scott used to be the porn star Barbi Bridges. Melissa does not admit to it, nor deny it.

From bookrags.com: Gene Scott's first marriage was to Betty Ann Frazer, his high school sweetheart at Oroville Union High School. This marriage lasted 23 years. Subsequent marriages include a twenty year marriage to Christine E. Shaw, divorced in 1998, and then to Melissa (nee Peroff) Pastore, a former Canadian porn star who went by the name Barbie Bridges, in August 2000.

Since Dr. Scott's death on February 21, 2005, Melissa Scott (b. 1969) has been the leader of Wescott Christian Center and Faith Center. Melissa Scott points to her preparation for the position as her assistant administrative pastor duties in charge of finances and operations. She studied theology under the tutelage of Dr. Gene Scott for 10 years prior to his death.
