Katie Green goes topless in Portugal

English model Katie Green has been pictured sunbathing topless in Portugal along with some of her girlfriends.

Green, 22, whose habit of undressing in public cost her, her job with Ultimo last year, revealed she and her friends were out to have a good time.

"Portugal is gorgeous and sunny," The Sun quoted her as saying.

"Me and the girls are having a great time sunning ourselves and having a few cocktails," she said.

She was also eager to get tanned prior to the release of Russell Brand comedy Get Him To The Greek.

The comedy marks her debut appearance on the big screen, and she's hoping her cameo turn will lead to bigger things.

"I loved shooting for the film. I shot it last summer and I'm really excited to see myself on the big screen for the first time!" she said.

"I really took to acting and hopefully I'll get chances to try some more," she added.
