Porn Star Leah Lust is Bikini Teacher Tiffany Shepherd

Tiffany Shepherd Turned to Porn when She Couldn't Get a Teaching Position After Losing High School Teaching Job

Leah Lust is a school teacher. Leah Lust is a porn star. Leah Lust is Tiffany Shepherd, the Florida high school biology teacher who became a bikini mate for a charter boat company for some extra cash and was subsequently fired. Not for being the bikini mate, or so the local school district said, but it seems that Tiffany Shepherd was dismissed for missing too many days of school. And all of the aforesaid statements are true.

Tiffany Shepherd was a school teacher at Port St. Lucie High School in Florida when she was fired. After being fired, she made national headlines and went on talk shows proclaiming that the school board had fired her because of her moonlighting position as bikini mate for Smokin' 'Em Charters. The school board said Tiffany Shepherd was fired for missing so many days of work -- several weeks worth -- and that they hadn't even known about the bikini mate job (or the online promotional pictures), which might or might not have been grounds for dismissal as well, had it not been for Tiffany Shepherd taking her story public.

But after the headlines, after the talk shows, the local news interviews, the radio shows, Tiffany Shepherd said she couldn't find a job. Application after application after resume (she claims as many as 2500) went out, some even to prisons, and... nothing. A teacher, she couldn't find a teaching position anywhere. She was offered $10,000 to strip and turned it down. She gradually began running out of money.

Money not only got tight, but Tiffany Shepherd found herself faced with legal bills as well. She needed money for the appellate court after she lost custody of two of her three children. Tiffany Shepherd then was faced between rent and buying Christmas presents.

So she turned to pornography. Tiffany Shepherd became Leah Lust.

Tiffany Shepherd told Page 2 Live: "I'm not particularly proud of it. To be honest, I hate it. I'm an educated woman, but I never thought it would come to this. No one gets brought up thinking they'll be a floozy."

Shepherd became Leah Lust ironically through Gil Coombes, the owner of Smokin' Em Charter fishing tours. Coombes and his wife also run a pornography studio, KLC Productions. He gave Tiffany Shepherd a job that paid considerably more than her former bikini mate position on his fishing tours.

Tiffany Shepherd, a.k.a. Leah Lust, told Page 2 Live that she was making $5000 a scene. Her roles? Leah Lust appropriately enough is usually a teacher. Her first feature was entitled "My First Sex Teacher." She told Page 2 Live that she was livid when she found out about the storyline. She said that it was not supposed to be a teacher-student film at all.

Leah Lust has also been the wife-next-door type.

Tiffany Shepherd's transition to Leah Lust seems to be the reverse of the story of Louisa Tuck, a teacher's aide at D'Ippolito Elementary School in Vineland, New Jersey. Louisa Tuck made national news when it was discovered that she had at one time also been a porn star whose stage name was Crystal Gunns. But that had been five years before she was "uncovered." Although there were many who wanted to fire her for her past, legal advisors told the school and the school district that to do so might prove indefensible since Louisa Tuck had done nothing as a teacher's aide for which to be fired.

Tiffany Shepherd to Leah Lust. Crystal Gunns to Louisa Tuck. Teachers to porn stars, porn stars to teachers.

And from a teacher to a porn star teacher. Still, Leah Lust can take heart in Crystal Gunns' story. One day Tiffany Shepherd might get a teaching position and be safe from her porn star past. If the school district can get past her absentee record...
