It looks like The City‘s girl-next-door Whitney Port is getting ready to shed her wholesome image! The reality starlet and budding fashion designer announced today that she’s posing for racy men’s magazine, Maxim. “Ready to channel my sexy side!!” she wrote on her blog Thursday. “This is a pretty big deal for me because I’ve never done ANYTHING like this before. I’ve done my fair share of photo shoots in my career, but none of them were at the level of sexiness that Maxim is recognized for,” wrote the self-described “cutesy, girl next door type.” An image, it seems, that the reality star is excited to relinquish.

“Doing this shoot will give me the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone and show people an entirely different side of me.” The City‘s celebrated good girl will join the stylish ranks of Maxim alums like Ashley Greene and Megan Fox. To hear more from Whitney and how she got ready for the sizzling shoot, check out whitneyport.com.

The City star Whitney Port chats about her most embarrassing fashion moment, her summer playlist, and the wrap-up of The Hills, the TV show that launched her career. You can read her answers to ten questions on TeenVogue.com – Thanks to Phillip for letting me know!

She’s a reality star, a PR-girl and a fashion designer, but now Whitney Port is adding another title to her resume: author.

The MTV star, who appeared on The Hills before moving to New York to star in The City, will pen a book, True Whit, for It Books, due out in 2011.

In what her publisher describes as a “conversational, fun, and candid guide for girls looking to start out [in life] with style, ” the Whitney Eve designer plans to write personal stories, and advice for young women.

“Being a twenty-something can be a difficult phase,” says Port, 25. “There are so many questions, and I wanted to write about my experiences for anyone who needs help navigating through life.”

Among the topics to be covered? Getting rid of puffy eyes, dressing for a date, decorating a tiny apartment, and hosting killer parties.

Adds Port: “It’s a really fun and fresh how-to-guide where I can share anecdotes that I’ve learned from both work and my personal life.”

Looks like Whitney Port and Ben Nemtin’s relationship really is a match made in MTV heaven.

The City starlet and The Buried Life star copped to “hanging out” last month – but lately things seem to be getting more serious.

Nemtin recently helped Port celebrate her 25th birthday during an intimate bash at the Los Angeles restaurant Cecconi’s. And when he needed to be in Chicago last weekend to film The Oprah Winfrey Show for an episode scheduled to air April 9, Port joined her beau in the Windy City.

And it wasn’t all business: The new couple kicked back at the Chicago hotspot The Underground on Saturday night. In between sips of Patron, Port chatted with – and planted kisses – on her new guy.

As the Bachelorette’s Jillian Harris and Ed Swiderski chatted with club owner Billy Dec, Port and Nemtin seemed smitten, says a source: “They were definitely flirty and affectionate.”

While Whitney Port’s design career is taking off in stores, on the runway and on-screen, she may have hit her first major hiccup — a lawsuit filed by designer Adrienne Baravetto, who claims she helped Port design and launch her line (then called Eve & A) starting in 2007. As first reported by TMZ.com, Baravetto alleges she had an oral agreement with Port and her father, including a $80,000 yearly salary plus a 25 percent stake in the company. Baravetto also alleges that she did virtually all the design work and that the Ports haven’t paid her a dime. Port’s lawyer Michael A. Taitelman tells PEOPLE, “The lawsuit that Adrienne Baravetto filed on March 19, 2010 against Whitney Eve, Inc., Whitney Port and others regarding the Whitney Eve clothing line is baseless and without merit. Whitney Port is, and always has been, the designer of Whitney Eve. Baravetto worked for Whitney Eve for a short period of time ending in early 2008. For more than two years, she has been silent. For reasons that we will uncover, she has decided to make these unsubstantiated allegations at this time. The defendants will vigorously defend themselves, and upon the successful conclusion of this lawsuit in their favor, they intend to hold Baravetto and her counsel accountable for their reckless conduct.” Says Baravetto’s attorney Peter Maretz, “Ms. Baravetto did the heavy lifting for these designs and she just wants to get paid fairly.”

The City is back!

In an exclusive first look at the trailer for season 2, Whitney Port steps into the spotlight as a fashion designer in New York City. Will she make a splash? Hopefully, with help from her mentor, Kelly Cutrone, who is in Whitney’s corner to help her put on a show at Fashion Week and promote her brand.

Meanwhile, over at Elle, Joe Zee wants Olivia and Erin to find some way to get along — yeah, right! — and has decided that Olivia is perfect to do on-camera work for the magazine’s Web site. That puts Olivia in a powerful position when she decides to pass on covering Whitney’s new line on the site.

The City returns April 27 (10:30 p.m. EST) on MTV.
