A Malvern girl who headed for the bright lights of London is jetting off to America at the end of the month for a glamorous LA photoshoot for Playboy with her twin sister.

Twenty-three-year-old model Samantha Hudson will be flying out to Los Angeles on Wednesday, July 30, and will be there for a week to take part in the photoshoot with twin Stephanie, who lives in Miami.

Audition

High-flying Samantha, who currently lives in Chelsea Harbour, London, is also to appear in a new blockbuster thriller, Trauma, with stars Colin Firth and Mena Suvari.

She got an audition for the film through her casting agency about a month ago and appears as a waitress who asks Colin Firth's character if he would like a drink.

"I'm really pleased about getting the part but I'm more intrigued and excited about doing Playboy," said Samantha, who is neighbours with Robbie Williams and revealed in the News of the World at the end of last month that she had a fling with the superstar.

"I can't wait - I'm really looking forward to it. I'm so excited that I'm on a diet right now."

Sam, whose parents live in Howsell Road, Malvern, has been modelling since she was 15.

She and Stephanie, who also models, grew up in the town and they both went to Chase High School.

She left Malvern at the age of 18 and moved to London to work as a model, appearing in many national newspapers.

She also went to drama school for two years and she and Stephanie appeared together in a Channel Four drama series, Killer Net, with Linda La Plante four years ago.

Last month she also did some filming for ITV programme Footballers' Wives.
