Audrina Patridge's Shocking Nude Photo Scandal

Audrina Patridge is the latest celebrity to be caught up in a shocking nude photo scandal after topless pictures of her surfaced on the net.

The Hills actress appears in the shots, reportedly taken as audition photos for Playboy, when she had just graduated from high school.

In a statement made through her rep, Audrina tells TMZ: "I took these photos years ago when I was just out of high school and beginning to model.

“I was young and very trusting of others and I didn't know to protect myself. It is a lesson learned, for myself, and hopefully for the young girls who look up to me."
