Some celebrity observers and skeptics believe MTV reality TV show "The Hills" star Audrina Patridge was happy about a photos release of her in various stages of undress and completely in the buff, and web site Best Week Ever.tv has even suggested she leaked the photos herself, reports In Touch. It's generated a lot of attention – and has made Audrina more a Hills star than sidekick.

In Touch Weekly reports that she had been getting less airtime because of Lauren's friendship with Lo Bosworth and now that she is Lauren's roommate, and Audrina lives in the guesthouse behind their Hollywood villa. “Audrina has been feeling left out,” says the insider. “LC is always with Lo, and they’re decorating their house together, so Audrina has been feeling like she’s been replaced.”

But not on the search engine list. Thanks to the topless photos she is highly sought, even now Playboy wants to talk to her, possibly about a pictorial. The first nude photos were supposedly to get the number one men's magazine's attention. She may now have that attention even though the sirst attempt failed.

Despite it all, Audrina is still saying she is concerned about the picture’s impact. “I don’t want my young fans to think they have to do what I did,” she said on her blog. “It’s been almost five years since I posed for that shoot, and during that time, I have learned many lessons about the business.”

But In Touch reports that as far as business goes, the pics stand to give her a higher profile – and could even make Playboy Playmate dreams come true. “Audrina is a beautiful girl,” Playboy rep Lauren Malone tells In Touch. “And if she really is interested in posing for Playboy, our editors would love to talk to her directly.”
