This is a side of Ashley Tisdale we've never seen before...

The 27-year-old Scary Movie 5 starlet covers the May issue of Maxim in a pair of skimpy bikini bottoms and a leather jacket ... and nothing else! Perhaps she drew some inspiration from her role as a hot, young hooker on Sons of Anarchy last season?

When asked about her new flick, specifically what it was like to work with Lindsay Lohan, Ash told the mag, “I think Lindsay’s great! There were so many cameos, and that’s what I love about these movies. They’d write a scene, then look for cameos, and they’d just pop in and do it. It was, like, Whoa, Mike Tyson’s here, and that wasn’t even planned!”

So what's the craziest thing one of her fans has ever done for her? “Once I Instagrammed a picture of me waking up, and the next day this older gentleman came to my parents’ house saying he wasn’t going to leave till he saw me. I was like, maybe I shouldn’t have taken a picture of me in bed?” That's not crazy ... that's downright creepy!
