Michelle My Slutty Bell


From www.dumbassdaily.com:

Yesterday, this looked like a non-story: Michelle Droelle works as a social studies teacher at Kellam High School in Virginia and someone noticed that she was still paying the the bills to place phone numbers for escort services. Legal escort services, but still something the school district was not happy about. Her explanation (yesterday)? Her name was just still on the phone bills, but she had already divorced herself from the business BEFORE she ever started teaching. End of story, right? Wrong? Someone looked into this a little more closely and found out that Ms. Droelle was actually still very much involved in the escort business and so she's been forced to resign. At right, the only picture we have been able to find of Michelle Droelle, now former teacher. Here's more from Hampton Roads:

The contracts for phone book ads list Droelle as the owner of Penthouse V.I.P. and her home address in Ocean Lakes as the company’s location.
Penthouse V.I.P. is the umbrella for an operation that runs ads under at least 20 different names, such as Exotic Playmates, Sinful Seductions and Party Girls.

Droelle did not return calls Wednesday to her home or business. Her lawyer, Mike Joynes, said that “pursuant to an agreement with the School Board, Michelle can’t have any comment.”

However, the school division denies requiring her silence.
“She chose to resign,” spokeswoman Eileen Cox said. “We don’t have any conditions on her resignation.”

As of Tuesday, Droelle still managed the businesses on a day-to-day basis, according to several women who said they have worked recently for the escort service.

One dancer, who appears on the Web site of Penthouse V.I.P. but requested that her name not be used in this article, said she has worked for Droelle for more than a year. She said that once Droelle took the teaching job at Kellam, she tried to keep a lower profile in the company – avoiding the weekly meetings where the dancers settle up their accounts with the service and collect their paychecks, signed by Droelle.

“Michelle didn’t want the newer girls to see her so she stopped coming to the meetings for a while,” the woman said. “But then she started coming again. I saw her at one in the past month.”

The contracts, from 2006 through 2008, are for ads in The Talking Phone Book, Verizon Yellow Pages and Yellow Book USA. Penthouse V.I.P. spent more than $50,000 on ads in 2007 alone, according to the contracts.

The phone book ads, often featuring scantily clad women, appeared in South Hampton Roads and Peninsula editions. Phone numbers for at least eight of the escort service names also are registered in Droelle’s name.

Calls to Penthouse V.I.P. and its affiliates are answered by an operator who sets up appointments and explains that for $100, the “girls” will strip fully nude, perform lap dances and provide companionship for one hour. Such acts are legal in Virginia as long as they take place in private and everyone involved is at least 18.

The company’s Web site features provocative photos of a dozen young women and a list of services, including “1-on-1 encounters … fetishes … light domination.”

*****************************************************

When this story originally broke, Michelle self-righteously proclaimed, "What I did before is my personal business." Uh, no. Sorry, I don't care if prostitution is legal in Virginia. I don't care if you didn't break the law. You were involved in the flesh trade and just because it's legal doesn't mean you should be around kids.

Hey, orgies aren't illegal either. But I wouldn't want kids being taught by an ex-porn star. Sorry. That "my past, my business" defense is a load of shit. You don't get a free pass just because something's in the past, be it legal or not. That garbage doesn't fly when your job involves teaching kids.

Go into the private sector and I'll look the other way on your past. But, you arrogant little tramp, don't you dare look down your nose at the parents and co-workers you never told the truth to.

People involved in prostitution--be it legal or not--are, by nature, slimy. People who work for strip clubs are the same. It's not only the people, it's the environment they choose to partake in. Water seeks its own level.

But that's getting off-track. Michelle lied. Michelle is obviously still in the escort business. So she had to quit teaching, and hopefully she has learned a little something about the futility of self-entitlement. But wow.....a hooker turned out to be a liar!

Who woulda thunk it?
