Well, MTV isn’t hiding from this one. Audrina Patridge, from one of my very favorite semi-scripted reality shows, The Hills, is the latest celebrity to have nude photos surface online. Conveniently, this scandal hits just days before the Liz Gateley semi-reality show comes back to air on MTV.

Los Angeles - Well, MTV isn’t hiding from this one. Audrina Patridge, from the reality show, The Hills, is the latest celebrity to have nude photos surface online.

Conveniently, this scandal hits just days before the popular semi-reality show comes back to air on MTV.

Audrina said “I took these photos years ago, when I was just out of high school and beginning to model,” she said in her statement. “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.”

First, there was the Lauren Conrad sex tape nonsense before Season 3. Now, there’s Audrina n00dies coming up right before the show comes back for Season 3.5. Either Speidi is up to his old ways, or someone in the publicity crew for The Hills really, really knows what they’re doing.
