High school worker suspended after she's outed as a porn star

LEVIS, Que. — A high school clerical worker who moonlights as a porn star had her cover blown when a student asked her for an autograph after he recognized her from a blue movie.

The woman, known by the stage name Samantha Ardente, has been suspended without pay while Etchemins High School near Quebec City decides whether the star of Serial Abusers 2 will keep her day job.

“It’s a first in our history,” school board spokeswoman Louise Boisvert told QMI Agency. “Even if she didn’t work directly with the students, we have to evaluate the impact that this story will have on her, on the students and on the staff.”

The administrative employee was recently confronted by a student who had seen one of her films. She refused his request for an autograph and told him to keep quiet about her double life. He instead told his friends and word eventually got back to the administration.

A teacher at the school says the news of the clerical worker's secret second job dropped like a bomb at the school of 1,400 students.

“What she did was inappropriate,” said the teacher, who refused to give his name. “But it’s not illegal, either. So we told the students that there’s no place for that (situation) here and we’ll see what happens next.”

The porn star will remain on suspension for two weeks while the school board decides her fate.

Meanwhile, the producer who hired Ardente told QMI Agency he had warned her about the potential risks to her reputation.

“She was very nervous,” said Nicolas Lafleur, owner of Pegas Productions. “She didn’t want to lose her job and I don’t think she told everyone, so it wasn’t easy for her.”

Lafleur has set up a Facebook page for Ardente where people have expressed their support.

Hmmm. That would make for an interesting school day, I'm sure that the movie in question has received a large increase in viewings among the kids at the school, and the staff, and the parents....

LEVIS, Que. - The 14-year-old boy who outed a clerical worker at his school who was moonlighting as a porn star has been suspended and claims his school administration threatened to press criminal charges against him.
QMI Agency has also learned that the boy's mother, who teaches at another school, has been suspended with pay for two days.
The 14-year-old learned the clerical worker's secret when he saw one of her movies. He asked her for an autograph and she refused. The boy then created a Facebook page under her name and uploaded a racy profile picture of the woman in her underwear.
The boy was suspended on Thursday.
"They suspended me for an undetermined period and threatened to press criminal charges against me if I don't take down (the) Facebook page within five days," he said.
But the boy said that he can't close the page because he created it under another name and can no longer access the administration section.
The spokesperson for the boy's school board said that they never threatened any legal action.
"Yes, he was suspended and we will have a meeting with him and his father on Monday," said Louise Boisvert. "But the school never threatened expulsion or to press charges against him."
However a memo, signed by the assistant director of the third grade, sent to the boy Thursday demands he find a solution to the problem or risk "being transferred to another school in the school board."
"This is an attack on my reputation; it's downright identity theft and I never gave my consent to have this Facebook page created on my behalf," said the clerical worker who goes by the stage name Samantha Ardente.
The clerical worker was suspended immediately after she was outed, according to QMI Agency's source.
QMI was also told that the woman could be transferred to the school board's head office, but the teacher's union couldn't confirm that.

I wonder if she was doing it for fame, fun or if she just needed the money because the school board doesn't pay her enough?

Sounds like a school admin loud mouth making threats. Why would he have to be transfered to another school?
If anything perhaps Facebook has a position to ban him from using Facebook because of his actions. The porn actress has nothing but herself to blame and probably should thank the kid when he's 18 for all the free publicity. Why she feels she should work around children while having hardcore porn floating around on the Internet is beyond me. If you don't want everyone seeing you getting your freak on, then don't post it to the Internet. Not really difficult to understand is it?

Maybe it would be a good idea to allow anyone and everyone who has or is making porn and uploading it to the Internet this opportunity to quietly leave teaching and seek employment elsewhere before they have to get all embarrassed about their squirt bukakki/cream pie eating vidies. Know what I mean?

While I could understand the concerns if she was involved in kiddy-porn or even fake kiddy-porn why should her off hours activities preclude her from the job she was hired to do. I highly doubt that there is an anti-moonlighting clause in her employment agreement nor would there be an anti-internet porn clause as both are unconstitutional. I really don't see the school board having any legal legs to fire her or really even suspend her. She has done nothing criminal, fraudulent or involving negligence or abuse of children and they have not stated she has been derielict in her duties at the school so I don't see why she isn't starting a suit against the school board already.

I don't know of any shortage of teachers though there is an abundance of bottom of the barrel teachers out there. Maybe teaching should return to being a calling instead of something to get a good pension out of.

I have to agree there are a lot out there that are called teachers that do not recognize what the job really is. They are there for the pensions and benefits and to babysit not educate our children to think for themselves.

The lady in question however is not a teacher but in an administrative position so I don't see how your coment is relative to the story.

I'll be interested to see how this all plays out. I'd be surprised if the school board fires her outright, more likely they will find some way to transfer her. If they dismiss her, as far as I can see, she has a case for wrongful dismissal. Whether she'd win or not is another issue. I'm not certain the legal scope of how an employee represents themselves outside of the workplace/work hours is all that clearly defined by statute. It'll be definitely be interesting to see how this goes.

They have a couple of options. they could make her position redundant and lay her off but this would mean they could not fill that position for 2 years. the other option, which is the most likely, is they will ask her to resign and offer up a nice severance package that includes non-disclosure of the terms.

Yeah, I can't see the board wanting to open up that can of worms with a full on dismissal.

But I'm always surprised (although maybe I shouldn't be) when I hear of situations where one would think dismissals or employee code of conduct requirements would be downright unconstitutional, yet they get away with it.

Like that Winnipeg waitress who was fired for shaving her head because her appearance was 'inappropriate'. The Manitoba HRC refused to hear her case. Or another one where, while it was in the States and a few years ago, worker's of a private company fought their employer and lost in the Supreme Court over the employer stating that all employee's must be non-smokers (even at home) or risk dismissal.

It doesn't matter whether or not I think waitstaff should have a full head of hair or how I may or may not feel about smoking or how I feel about porn. The bigger issue is the level of control that is being exercised and by whom.

So, while I feel they probably will offer her a settlement, I kind of wish this would end up in the courts.

She may have a case for wrongful dismissal unless her employment contract has a provision which allows the board to do so for conduct unbecoming or detrimental to its operations. Usually, the employee or union is aware of how the board defines that.

Porn star/high school worker may appear on Leno
By QMI Agency
Last Updated: April 5, 2011 8:07pm

MONTREAL - Samantha Ardente, the high school administrator in Levis, Que., who was outed as a porn star when a student asked for her autograph, might soon appear on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
A researcher from the NBC late-night show contacted Ardente and seemed interested in arranging an interview with her, she told QMI Agency.
Just last week, Leno joked about Ardente's double life in his opening monologue.
"There was interest on his part. I don't know what he wants me to do. I have no information, no details, nothing. I just know there's interest," Ardente said in a French-language interview on Monday.
There's just one problem: The Tonight Show is an English program and the star of Serial Abusers 2 isn't totally bilingual.
"Because of this, I'm not sure if I'll go on the show. But I'd be comfortable with it," she said.
In the meantime, Ardente said she would find out Tuesday whether she'll be allowed to return to her administrative duties at Les Etchemins High School near Quebec City. She could not be reached for comment.
The school board suspended her for two weeks with pay after her porn history went public.
School spokeswoman Louise Boisvert confirmed Ardente has a meeting with school officials Tuesday morning, but said she doubts the board has made a decision about her future. School officials reached Tuesday would not confirm whether Ardente would return to work or not.

Ex-porn star who worked at high school fired

LEVIS, Que. - A school board near Quebec City has fired a high school administrator who was outed as a porn star.
The woman, who goes by the stage name Samantha Ardente, says she will contest the dismissal, which came after a student uncovered her secret life.
The board held a special meeting on Thursday evening and said the woman's film career was not compatible with her day job.
"We believe the actions that led to this incident are inappropriate, unacceptable and incompatible with not only our mission but also with the values we wish to convey to our young students," said board chairman Leopold Castonguay.
The scandal began last month when a 14-year-old student learned the clerical worker's secret after watching one of her movies. He asked her for an autograph and she refused. The boy then created a Facebook page under her name and uploaded a racy profile picture of the woman in her underwear. The boy was later suspended, as was Ardente.
She told QMI Agency she agreed to stop making porn films to keep her job, and that she was even prepared to transfer to another location. But she said talks broke down over a demand she make unspecified changes to her personal life.
"There are some things that I could not accept," she said. "I promised not make (porn), but it was not enough for them.
"I always separated my personal and professional life. I will appeal this decision."
Ardente worked at the school for nine years. The office clerk plans to find a new job, and also expressed regrets about her porn career.
"I misjudged the consequences," she said. "I did not expect the media scandal. I regret this for sure."

"I misjudged the consequences," she said. "I did not expect the media scandal. I regret this for sure."

Normally, I think she should be allowed to keep her job and be a porn actress. I think we are far too uptight about sex in our culture. That said, her statement above shows that she is far to stupid to be involved, in any way shape or form, with the education of children.

Teen who outed porn star school worker wanted sex: Lawyer alleges 20

A Quebec-area teen who outed a school secretary who had moonlighted as a porn actress, allegedly wanted more than just an autograph to keep quiet.
The woman and her lawyer told broadcaster Charles Adler on his TV show airing on the Sun News Network Monday night that the student at one point asked her for oral sex.
In March, the clerical worker, who goes by the stage-name Samantha Ardente, lost her job after the 14-year-old told fellow students he had seen her in an adult movie called Serial Abusers 2.
Previously, it was reported the teen had asked her for an autograph after first approaching her at school and asking if she was the same actress.
When she told him to go away, he went off and created a Facebook page in her name, complete with photo of her in underwear.
Appearing on Adler’s show, on the first day of the Sun News Network’s airing, the woman — who says she gave up porn just before the controversy erupted — agreed that the teen tried to coerce her into a trade for sex.
Her lawyer, Franco Schiro, told Adler that his client became alarmed after the teen asked her about her young daughter.
Schiro says during an online exchange, during which his client was trying to find out what the boy knew about her pre-teen daughter, the male student: “Basically asked her for oral sex in order to stop what was going to be happening to the daughter of my client.”
Ardente told Adler she tried to launch a police investigation, but was told by cops in Quebec that it wasn’t a criminal matter.
The former actress is now launching unspecified legal action after losing her job.
