A scandalous photo released yesterday, which is property of Splash News, shows Audrina Patridge nude and like a bad, dirty schoolgirl. Gulp.

This was taken prior to her joining The Hills and after she graduated from high school. She'd done some modeling prior to this, but tried out for Playboy.

Check out this Audrina Patridge nude picture and see for yourself ...

There's no doubt that it's her, either. In a statement made through her rep today, Audrina Patridge admitted it's her in the pics and told TMZ:

"I took these photos years ago when I was just out of high school and beginning to model. I was young and trusting of others and didn't know to protect myself. It is a lesson learned, for myself, and hopefully for the young girls who look up to me."

Check out WWTDD for some seriously hot (and very naked) Audrina Patridge photos that are very not safe for work, school, or anywhere public.

We're just wondering ... what would Lauren Conrad think?
