Ashley Greene Turns Down Playboy Offer

Ashley Greene was reportedly offered $75,000 to pose naked for Playboy and reports are that she declined the offer.  Some speculate that the refusal was becaus of her relationship with Joe Jonas. 

Are the reports from the “Breaking Dawn” set getting you psyched about the film?

I have to admit that if Ashley did turn Playboy down, I’m proud of her.  I am irked by the speculation that she did it because of her boyfriend.  Why can’t it be simply because she didn’t want to for her own personal reasons?  Not to mention…for all we know, there may be a morals clause in her contract with Summit that prevents her from appearing naked.  She is a major character in a series of PG-13 movies based on books written by a devout Mormon, after all.
