Palin link to nude photos

LEVI JOHNSTON is going for the ultimate exposure – the 19-year-old father of Sarah Palin’s grandchild will pose nude for Playgirl, his lawyer said.

To get ready for his close-up, Johnston is training three hours a day, six nights a week at an Anchorage gym with a local body builder.

A formal agreement has not been reached with the online magazine, but the photo shoot is a “foregone conclusion,” said Johnston’s lawyer, Rex Butler.

Johnston fathered a son with Bristol, the 18-year-old daughter of Sarah Palin, the former Republican vice presidential candidate who resigned as Alaska’s governor in July.

The photographs could be a source of embarrassment for Palin, often mentioned as a possible 2012 presidential candidate.
