Last Wednesday (Nov. 15), controversial Christian comedian John Crist’s Facebook page was hacked and flooded with pornographic images.
“Hi everybody, look [sic] like we finally got control back of our Facebook,” a statement on Crist’s page said. “We got hacked on Wednesday night and have been working around the clock with the team at Meta to regain control. So sorry for all the weird FB stories that were posted over the weekend!”
One fan commented, “The amount of those stories that Facebook chose to put in my feed was absurd. I never see that many posts by any single person I follow yet every time I opened my phone there was some giant naked hind-end. And no matter how many times I reported it and told Facebook I didn’t want to see it, they kept showing it.”
Another wrote, “So glad! If it lasted much longer I would have had to unfollow you!”

“I have to admit…I thought that boy had done gone ‘backslidin.’
JUST KIDDING,” one fan said.
In Nov. 2019, Crist was accused of sexual misconduct and harassment by five young women with whom Crist allegedly had manipulative sexual relationships. The allegations were first reported by Charisma News after months of investigative journalism.
The allegations forced Crist to cancel an upcoming tour and resulted in Netflix postponing his special “I Ain’t Prayin’ for That.”
Crist, who had been very active on multiple social media platforms, ceased to post for eight months. He publicly shared that he spent time in a treatment facility for four months with no phone.

The comedian confessed to making a lot of poor decisions in his personal life and said, “I point the fingers at no one else but myself,” acknowledging he “had a problem and needed to get some help.”
In the summer of 2020, Crist shared that he was suicidal during that time. “About 16 months ago, I really was going to end my life…I remember specifically this story. I was in rehab, out in the desert in Arizona, and I was so sad and I was full of so much shame.” He told his listeners, “I didn’t want to participate in the recovery process or try to get better or anything.”
Today, Crist has returned to selling out tour dates and is one of the most popular Christian comedians in America.
