Howard Stern has to maintain some level of shock value – his latest stunt involves auctioning off Natalie Dylan’s virginity. She’s pictured above.

Howard Stern is auctioning off Natalie Dylan’s virginity this morning on his radio show. The 22-year-old Natalie Dylan hails from San Diego and is looking to raise money to pay for her college tuition.

According to Natalie Dylan, “I don’t have a moral dilemma with it. We live in a capitalist society. Why shouldn’t I be allowed to capitalize on my virginity?” (By the way, she is using the pseudonym of Natalie Dylan “for safety reasons.”)

Natalie Dylan’s sister works at Nevada’s famed (legal) brothel Moonlite Bunny Ranch.

Interested bidders for Howard Stern’s auction of Natalie Dylan’s virginity can visit bunnyranch.com. The “deal” will be consummated at the Bunny Ranch.

And lest you think that Natalie Dylan is just saying she’s a virgin to earn some money – she says she will submit to a polygraph test and a gynecological exam to confirm everything.

Natalie Dylan maintains that she’s unable to finance her education the typical way because her step-father allegedly took out student loans in Natalie and her sister’s names without their permission.

Natalie Dylan has already earned a bachelor’s degree in women’s studies at Sacramento State. She is looking to start her master’s work in marriage and family therapy in January.

Dylan also says it’s not a matter of her giving up her virginity to the highest bidder, saying, “I want someone with chemistry. We’ll take bids until I find a suitor I’m happy with.”
