News - Levi Johnston, the father of Sarah Palin's grandson, is causing a stir on the www with news of his photoshoot for Playgirl. It is likely the 19 year old aspiring model and actor posed with a strategically placed hockey stick (reaching for the Hockey Mom vote), but there have also been suggestions of a full frontal assault!

Palin herself has been doing the media rounds, as she has a book out this week. Johnston was brought up on Oprah. Winfrey asked the former Alaska governor whether the father of her baby grandson would be invited to Thanksgiving dinner.

"You know, that's a great question," Palin answered. "And it's lovely to think that he would ever even consider such a thing. Because of course you want - he is a part of the family and you want to bring him in the fold and kind of under your wing. And he needs that, too, Oprah."

That's an unsurprisingly frosty response, given what Johnston has been saying about the Palin's, and of course, Sarah does consider Playgirl to be 'porn'.

Levi's manager Tank Jones (surely related to Tank Girl in some way) was enthusing about the shoot saying it was 'fantastic'. And as Levi has an alterego, 'Ricky Hollywood', surely the prospect of a fully fledged career in adult entertainment is not far behind?
