| | Top 5 Televangelist Toupees | | 2007-08-15 15:04:00 | | Here they are, the Top 5 Televangelist Toupees:#5. Jim BakkerAir conditioned dog houses and expensive toupees were the hallmark of this TV evangelist/host of the PTL club, which ended in the 80s after a sex scandal with Jessica Hahn.Convicted of 24 counts of fraud and conspiracy, October, 1989, and sentenced to 45 years in prison (reduced to 18 years, 1991), he was forced to fore go the hairpiece in federal prison.#4. Jake Hess of the Bill Gaither SingersThis set of locks always brought a chuckle, as I wondered if it would part from his head during some of the more lively selections.#3. Morris CerulloWhile not a toupee, this comeover evangelist still ranks a place on the list.#2. Ron HembreeThis TV evangelist hosts his coiffed poodle on QuickStudy in the mornings.#1. And, the number 1 televangelist toupee: Ernest AngleyI remember this TV evangelist offering locks of his dead wife's hair (for a contribution of course) in the early 80's.He's still going strong: The Devil In Pastor's Clothing. Here's a link to a video from the 80's (yes, it's for real) in which I think he wearing the same toupee as today!More Shenanigans...Even though this next TV evangelist does not qualify for the above list, he still ranks as one of my favorites.Peter Popoff was caught red handed in the early 90s with a receiver in his ear, and no, it wasn't the voice of God, it was his wife proclaiming 'wisdom information' from the flock.Peter Popoff exposed by James RandiIt doesn't seem to have hurt him, though. He's still on late night TV several times a dayHere's a link to one of his fund raising letters:Peter Popoff Letter | | By: Televangelists with Toupees | | |
