"Some girls who work at Hooters are embarrassed by the tight shorts and skimpy tops they have to wear, but Katrina loved it. She always had her shorts pulled up the tightest and her T-shirt knotted up to show off the most midriff. She loved the attention." her pal tells RadarOnline.com.

Katrina worked for Hooters for three months last summer, but never made it onto the floor as a waitress. She never got past being the greeter at the door.

"But she made it obvious she was only working at Hooters until she got a break in show business."

"'When I get my big break, I won't let it get away,' she vowed. It was no surprise to us that Katrina would turn up for auditions in a bikini, flirt with Ryan Seacrest and get in a fight with a judge. She definitely knows how to get attention."

"Katrina would come in for her shift, take a phone call and then suddenly announce 'I've gotta' go. I've got an audition.'

"And she'd go racing out of the restaurant.

"After the third time, the manager told her 'If you leave, you better not bother coming back.'

"Katrina said the audition was too important to miss. She went running out of the restaurant and she was fired."
