When Heidi Montag took up Hugh Hefner’s offer to pose for the cover of his September 2009 issue of Playboy, there must have been rumours that she did it solely for the pay off. But if reports on pay checks for The Hills star are to be believed, that just cant be the case.

According to reports the star of  MTV’s favorite docu-soap, The Hills, is earning $100,000 an episode.

Along with the 23 year old’s ability to command $20,000-$25,000 for personal appearances, Heidi is rumored to have collected the grand sum of $375K for her Playboy magazine photo shoot.

At that rate she should be able to buy herself a personality and a brain!!!

Up until now one could quite easily have been forgiven for believing that The Hills star, Heidi Montag, was physically joined at the hip with her, now husband, Spencer Pratt, but since appearing solo in Hugh Hefner’s Playboy magazine for September 2009, it now transpires that Heidi can actually do something on her own.

As the girl with one of the hottest bodies on television, graces the cover of Playboy, her lack of acting skills and general over all appeal to the public has, for now, been brushed aside, as Heidi trawls in many more male fans worldwide with her Playboy pictorial.

Although Heidi doesn’t appear nude, we’re sure the mere sight of her in skimpy lingerie and seductive poses will more than compensate for her total nudity and with a little imagination on the part of Playboy readers everywhere, who knows how she will appear in their mind’s eye!
