3.0 out of 5 stars She Re-invented herself, November 30, 2004
Hahn emerged from the Jim and Tammy Bakker scandal in the 80s. Her revelations about Bakker's (choose your noun here) (1) tryst with her (2) rape of her or (3) affair with her, helped expose the charlatan televangelist's excesses and in so doing, no doubt did organized evangelical protestant Christianity a huge favor by doing what the religious establishmt was unable or unwilling to do itself. We still have a slue of money-grubbing televangelist con men out there even today (most notably Bob Tilton and his latest wife) but we'll not have another Jim Bakker with his lavish lifestyle funded by unassuming "prayer partners". Today all credible domestic missionaries like Bakker submit themselves to regular audits by a group called the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability or ECFA.
Of course, since there were no external ministry audits when Jim and Tammy Faye ginned up the PTL Club/TV show they were able to amass a vast sum of donations from the faithful/naive and it was that vast sum of dough and no one to account to for how it was spent which provided them the opportunity for their mis-stewardship of the dinero.

An entire nation was fixated on the PTL's downfall, perceived as it was as being part and parcel of the much-maligned Religious Right. Hahn was at first seen as a "victim" and feted by Donahue and others in the media even as Jim and Tammy were interrogated by Ted Koppel in the old days when folks still watched NIGHTLINE.

But Hahn's status as hot media property faded quickly. She later said at the time PLAYBOY approached her for her story/ photo layout she had less than $100 in her checking account. PLAYBOY was ecstatic about exposing the hypocrisy of the Bakkers. Hahn eagerly "bared it all" for PLAYBOY, and with the fee for her story and photos she contacted an LA plastic surgeon. After the admirable enhancemts and aesthetic corrections Hahn agreed to do another layout in PLAYBOY. The ex-church secretary must have thought that-- a la Anna Nicole Smith-- a nip and tuck and uplift/upgrade here and there could somehow propel her into genuine movie/TV stardom.
Though this video provides ample opportunity to view the surgeon's works, Hahn emerges every bit naive and willing to be used as the young allegedly virginal church secretary whom Jim Bakker accosted/raped/had an affair with. I was disturbed by the scene where Jessica hurls a crucifix at a wall, shattering it into pieces. Bakker may have been a disgrace to "the church" but he hardly typifies all who profess the Christ and proclaim His Gospel.
I applaud Hahn's willingness to reinvent herself. She remains today a soft-core porn star. She made a few appearances on "Married with Children" and a few other shows, and can claim the distinction of being once romantically linked to foul-mouthed former preacher turned comic SAM KINISON.
