Audrina Patridge is really exceeding out expectations. The quiet, less bitchy girl with the heart of gold (kidding) - that is, with the least amount of drama going on in her life is turning out to be quite a character. Patridge has been recently "plagued" by a fake naked pictures scandal, caused by a series of nude shots which - she claimed - were taken when she was fresh out of high school and trying to move forward with her modeling career. Opportunities must have been pretty thin on the ground, because Audrina decided to strip off her clothes and try to get into Playboy magazine. Naturally, the shots ended up "accidentally" being released by a photo agency which has now...ahem, leaked a second set of equally provocative shots.

Patridge called the release of the first batch of photos a "lesson learned," and tried to explain about how she was "very trusting of others and� didn't know to protect myself". However, the release of those shots was by far the best thing that happened to her semi-nonexistent career, which makes it clear, really, why someone out there felt it was the best time to release even more outrageous shots of the former miss goody-goody. Of course, it so happened - and it was really a huge coincidence...not - that Audrina decided to capitalize on her 15 minutes and make the most of her newly-found "racy, naughty girl" image, by putting in a (scantily clad) appearance at the Pussycat Dolls lounge in las Vegas.

Ahead of the show, Audrina addressed the rumors that she was about to permanently join the Dolls and denied her presence alongside the group will be anything more than a guest star. "I'm not going to be in the Pussycat Dolls. I don't know where that came from. I'm going to introduce them one night and that's it," she said. However, this didn't prevent her from changing two racy Pussycat-trademark outfits while parading on stage and posing for the eager photographers. You can check out some of the latest Audrina photos - they're not as explicit as the first round, but they are slightly more classy and she has definitely improved her posing skills. No word on when photo batch number three is coming out but stay tuned - it won't be long now.
