Will I have to mention my career in porn in my job interview, as I'm sure they'll just see me as a stupid blonde slut if i mention it. But it seems wrong to keep it a secret as it is not something I am ashamed of. Please help me.

Your character will be tarnished as well as your integrity compromised.
You should give up the porn industry if you want to pursue being a school teacher. And yes, you will have to come clean on this matter.
What do you desire most? Money and the appeal of the porn industry or changing your ways and being a school teacher that can influence young minds and make a difference?
Best Wishes.

If you don't mention it you are witholding information that will get you sacked when it comes out. And I do mean WHEN and not if. Skeletons in the closet always come out at some point.

Yes, it's best to be honest about things, but unless the question is asked during an interview, I'd not divulge this information (unless you absolutely need to find out if it's possible for an actress with no secrets to get a job in education). I guarantee you that most teachers/administrators kept secrets from their school districts during the job interview.

As for your resume, you don't have to put anything you don't want to. Yet if you have a huge blank section on your employment time line, questions will be asked.
Yet if you lie the chances of your past coming to light sooner or later will not look good on you.
As much as we all wish the human race in whole was better, judgments will be made. Good or bad, sooner or later it will affect you.
When you are doing your schooling talk to the career counsellor there might be a few options, were you will not be judged so harshly.

Personally Id be more worried about the fact that they unlikely to want somebody from the sex industry near kids in the current climate of concern about the people that work in schools. Technically speaking I would think you don't have to mention as the income it gives you wouldn't be taxed thus it wouldn't be immediately proveable you had concealed it. Morally what you do is up to you. Hope that helps.
