Now you know why your kid wants a transfer to Etchemins High.The Daily Mail reports that a school worker who moonlights as a porn star has had her secret double life exposed after a pupil at the Canadian school asked her for an autograph, having watched one of her illicit movies.
The woman, known by her performing name, Samantha Ardente, has been suspended without pay for two weeks from Etchemins High School near Quebec City while authorities decide her fate.
The star of Serial Abusers 2 refused the student’s request for an autograph and told him to keep her clandestine activities to himself.
Instead, the excitable youngster told his friends, with word eventually getting back to the administration, leading to the clerical assistant’s suspension.
School board spokeswoman Louise Boisvert said: ‘It’s a first in our history.
‘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.’

UPDATE 4-4-11 Porn star/high school worker may appear on Leno
Toronto Sun reports that 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.
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.
UPDATE 4-8-11 Quebec school board fires employee who moonlighted as porn actress
The Star reports that a high school office assistant who moonlighted as a porn actress has been fired for her extracurricular activities.
The woman — also known by the porn moniker Samantha Ardente — was suspended last month from the Quebec City-area high school after a student spotted her in a porn video on the Internet.
School board officials fired Ardente on Thursday after they were unable to reach agreement on her transfer to another job.
“We believe that the facts and the actions that led to this incident are inappropriate, unacceptable and incompatible, not only with our mission, but also with the values that we hope to convey to our young students,” school board chairman Leopold Castonguay said in a statement.
“Under the circumstances, we believe that we have been open and have proposed appropriate measures.”
Ardente said she will appeal the board's decision to let her go.
She told Montreal radio station 98.5 she offered to immediately stop her pornography career.
Ardente had been a school-board employee for nine years.
She has appeared in several porn flicks, including “Serial Abusers 2.”
The 14-year-old student who recognized Ardente in the film had tried to get her autograph and she asked him to keep his discovery a secret.
But the kid let the cat out of the bag.
Word of the video spread quickly through the school and, before long, students were forwarding each other the Internet links.
UPDATE: 4-19-11 Teen who outed porn star school worker wanted sex: Lawyer alleges
Toronto Sun reports that 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.
UPDATE 4-21-11 School secretary outed as porn star by pupil strips off again... despite promising to give up her seedy double life
Daily Mail reports that a porn star school secretary who promised to give up her seedy secret double life has stripped off again after being sacked from her day job.
Julie Gagnon, who goes by the stage name Samantha Ardente, made headlines around the world after being outed by a 14-year-old pupil from her school who recognised her in a porn film.
The young mother was finally sacked from her job at Etchemins High School near Quebec City last week after news of her starring role in the film Serial Abusers 2 reached school management.
Miss Gagnon, who has starred in five adult movies, had agreed to stop making them in a desperate bid to keep her job, but the school board claimed her film career 'was not compatible' with her position.
Despite being hopeful of regaining her school job after launching legal action against her sacking, Miss Gagnon has bared all in a five-page spread in the erotic magazine Summum.
