Whitney Port Wants To Shed “Girl Next Door” Image With Maxim Shoot!

And she’s doing it by getting sexy and intimate in a Maxim photo shoot! The City star, Whitney Port, wrote about her decision to pose in her blog:

“I’ve always been classified as the cutesy girl-next-door type, so doing this shoot will give me the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone and show people an entirely different side of me.”

We support your decision to shed your old image, but girls next door are sexy too! Don’t completely abandon your roots!

“I’m definitely nervous, but I know that this will be an incredibly empowering and liberating experience. Those thousands of push-ups and sit-ups better pay off!”

Thousands of push-ups and sit-ups? Nobody better pick a fight with the Port right now!
Good, luck Whitney! We can’t wait to see the photos!
