Melissa Pastore
Current pastor of Dr. Gene Scott’s University network.
Widow of Dr. Gene Scott in February 2005. They were married in Reno, Nevada 8/2000, when he was 70 and she was 32..
Has a past, including associations and described nude photos available online, under the professional name “Barbie Bridges” and “Barbi Bridges.”
Barbie Bridges was Miss Nude Can-Am Exotic, out of Tornoto, Canada, in 1994. Barbie Bridges Enterprises, operated out of (personally identifying information removed), California, was financed by her to $40,000. and operated in partnership with her 1992-1996 husband Paul J. Pastore (22 years her senior). Several adult films, with explicit titles, are described on the Internet as having been produced in the 1990’s by her firm. Paul Pastore has more recently operated “Beverly Hills Records” (1998-2003) and “Universal Images.”
Her Maiden Name, per the 2000 and 1992 Nevada marraige licenses: Melissa Peroff.
She was the daughter of a “Frank Peroff” of Canada, born on (personally identifying information removed). There was a mobster operating out of Canada in that approximate timeframe, as Frank Peroff, who was later the subject of a book by L.H. Whittemore.
She was sued in 1998 for “Fraud and Deceit” in Los County Superior Court, for non-payment on a $30,000. promissory note linked to “Barbie Bridges”
She has not repented publicly, or explained her past in full, to her congregation.
There are also links, to the attorney handling the Scott Church/Estate, and the Church of Scientology.
Other sources and information on Melissa Scott.
The 1996 LA County divorce file has been imaged.
Some of the highlights:
Confirms that it is the same Paul Pastore, as was married in Vegas on 11/24/1992, and includes the (personally identifying information removed) address.
Reports that Melissa financed “B B E Ltd” to about $40,000.
Includes a restraining order on Paul, including damages of $100,000. (!!) for each instance of distribution of an image of “Barbie” via photo, print, video, etc.
She got a 1990 Corvette, and he kept the lease on the apartment and a 1992 Ford van.
IMPORTANT: If anyone can locate a copy of a video named “Picture Perect,” it might explain the reasons for this court action—I suggest a search of available film databases for this. Might be something really interesting there.
I didn’t locate this, but checkout Los Angeles Superior Court Case
BC186128 (filed 2/17/1998).
Filed by Plaintiff Ronald Atkinson against Defendants:
(quote) “Barbie Bridges Entertainment; Paul Pastore individually and dba Barbie Bridges Entertainment, Melissa Paulina Pastore**, individually and dba Barbie Bridges Entertainment.”
This complaint alleges “Fraud and Deceit” with regards to a Promissory Note that the Plaintiff alleged was not repaid. In the intial suit, Plaintiff asks for $30,000.00.
Plaintiff’s Attorney was Robert B. Silverman, who according to California State Bar records now practives from Westminster (phone listed on CA Bar website at (personally identifying information removed)).
Defendant’s Attorney was Robert M. Ross, who according to California State Bar records now practives from Encino (phone listed on CA Bar website at (personally identifying information removed)).
Note: Apparently Melissa has some concerns about using her middle
name. On the Scott marriage certificate there was no middle name or initial.
Quotes, from the case (LA Superior Court #BC186128):
“Third Cause of Action—Fraud and Deceit—Promise Made With No Intention to Perform”
26: “BBE (Barbie Bridges Enterprises), Melissa, Paul and the Defendants
("John Does #1-#20), and each of them agreed to repay (Plaintiff) Atkinson for the money advanced by Atkinson
pursuant to the terms of said agreement.”
27. “As of December 1997, BBE, Melissa, Paul and the Defendants, and each of them, have failed to pay Atkinson any amounts whatsoever.”
28. “Atkinson is informed and believes and thereon alleges that BBE, Melissa, Paul and each of the Defendants made said promise to pay without the intention performing on said promise to pay.”
29. “As a direct and proximate result of the fact that Atkinson lent money to BBE Melissa, Paul and each of the Defendants and that at no time whatsoever
has BBE, Melissa, Paul and each of the Defendants ever make even one payment, Atkinson is informed and believes and based on said information and belief herein alleges that BBE, Melissa, Paul and each of the Defendants never intended to perform on said agreement.”
Comment: Kinda cuts to the heart of the credibility question, doesn’t it?

My grandma used to say. “show me your company and I’ll tell you what you are”. Makes sense doesn’t it?
I’ll bet he’ll say he was counseling
Yes, it does make sense.
Probably will.
I do have a question I feel is ligament.
Why do you people acknowledge that mans self proclaimed title? Do any of you know what the word is as to the titles these people claim? Is this claim it and name it mentally going to be allowed? These dirt bags have not been given there titles by my God. They in fact have no authority and no anointing. You talk of busting them yet you play there game. Strip them from this day forth
of any connection to our God until there is true repentance before God and man.
1 Timothy 3:1-7
This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop , he desires a good work. 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach; 3 not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous; 4 one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence 5(for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?); 6 not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil. 7 Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
Titus 1:6-9
7 For a bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, 8 but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled, 9 holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.
OK. I made a grave mistake tonight. I was flipping through the channels and flipped up on Melissa Scott’s television show. Has anyone else seen this piece of crap of a show. WHAT IN HADES IS SHE TEACHING? Is she part of the New Age Scientology Movement?

All I can say is CRAZY.
Oh My GOSH, I just google this woman to see what all the talk was about. I was shocked to see that this woman is associated with RW and Paul Crouch jr. I’ve seen her a few times while channel surfiing and have wonder what in the heck was she talking about. Why hasn’t she changed the name of her tv show, for months, I thought she was Dr. Gene Scott!!!!
FAIRLY NEW TO THIS FORUM. FIRST TIME POSTING.
I AM VERY CURIOUS. ISN’T PAUL CROUCH, JR. MARRIED? DID HE DIVORCE OR WIFE DIE? I HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT EITHER AND I WATCH TBN FAITHFULLY. CAN SOMEONE TELL ME. THANKS. PASTORS WIFE FROM ST. PETE

If you have been watching the the Trinity Bafoon Network faithfully you probably need to be detoxed and have a colin cleansing to remove all the pioson from the kool-aid consumed.
That group is a TV cult- they are not even believers but phonies.
You know what it says about association? Whoever you hang around sooner or later their attitudes and ways rub off on you, not the other way around. That is why you should never hang around losers for too long because they will always bring you down to their level not you bringing them up to your level.

She’s slimey, and as with her marrying Scott in the first place, she saw dollar signs. Dr. Scott died almost three years ago, and he himself was like WOW.
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 in August 2000. Since Dr. Scott’s death on February 21, 2005, Melissa Scott (b. 1969) has been the successor 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.

I AM VERY CURIOUS. ISN’T PAUL CROUCH, JR. MARRIED? DID HE DIVORCE OR WIFE DIE? I HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT EITHER AND I WATCH TBN FAITHFULLY. CAN SOMEONE TELL ME. THANKS. PASTORS WIFE FROM ST. PETE
You’re probably confusing Paul Jr with his brother Matt. Matt and his wife are the ones on TBN all the time. I doubt that you have ever seen Paul Jr.

He has 3 children; his son Brandon (23) hosts Top 3 on JCTV, and works as a video producer/editor/cinematographer for Benny Hinn. His daughter Brittany (21), a recently-married graduate from St. John’s University, works in TBN’s personnel department. His youngest daughter Carra (14) is still in school.
CC.com: Has TBN been part of your whole life?
Paul: I was 13 when TBN started in 1973, and for the first 7 years I was very involved. I didn’t really understand the scope and scale of what was going on, but I don’t think my parents did either. They were just trying to buy a local TV station in Los Angeles and provide programming for 6 hours a day. That was really the only vision they had at that point. Raise enough money to have programming from 6 PM – 12 AM, and that was it. None of us had any idea how it would grow, or what it would become. I think if Dad would have known in 1973 what it’s like now, he would have walked away, because it’s a very daunting task. It’s the mercy of God that allows to see just so far down the road so we don’t get scared or run away.
During those years, I did whatever needed to be done. It was things I thought were cool and held a true fascination and enjoyment for me. I worked on lights, cameras, wires, dollies, etc. I really enjoyed the technical and artistic side of things; it was a great learning time for me. I think of it as my university process. We were working hands-on and live on the air, which hones your skills very quickly.
CC.com: You spent some time away from TBN. What pulled you away?
Paul: I wanted to get out and spread my wings. I had my job because of who my parents are, and wanted to get out from under that. I had the technical (camera, lighting, directing) and communication skills necessary to direct live shows, so I took them and went out into the open market. At age 20 (in 1980), I started my own company called PJ Video. A lot of my early clients were Christians who knew of my folks. People like Billy Graham, Bill Bright, Dr. Robert Schuler. I traveled with them doing video production. A lot of those programs aired on TBN, and I continued to market myself and work for whoever would hire me.
CC.com: Do you have any regrets about leaving TBN and starting your own company?
Paul: No. I believe the Lord wanted me to leave TBN. Even though I learned a lot in 7 years, there was a lot I didn’t know. Things about running a company, like hiring and firing and taxes. There is no greater learning experience than to go through an IRS tax audit. I was sweating bullets!
