American reality star and fashion designer Whitney Port says she will never follow in the footsteps of her former Hills co-star Heidi Montag by undergoing drastic plastic surgery.

Montag — currently embroiled in a sex-tape scandal with her ex-husband Spencer Pratt — is said to have undergone 10 cosmetic procedures in a day last year. But Port says that's too much, reports femalefirst.co.uk. "If you really feel like you want a little nip and tuck, that's your prerogative but that's not something I'd ever want to get into — especially to the level Heidi did. I think at our age it's a little bit much," says the 25-year-old actress.

The City star is to pose in a racy photo shoot for men's magazine Maxim. "Ready to channel my sexy side... I've never done anything like this before," Port posted on her blog. "I've done my fair share of photo shoots, but none of them were at the level of sexiness that Maxim is recognised for. Doing this shoot will give me the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone and show people an entirely different side of me," she added.
