Paulina Gretzky, the daughter of hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, is back online and posting racy snapshots on the photo-sharing site Instagram.

The risqué photos appeared to have been removed late Monday from her Instagram profile, but not before generating a few headlines.

Gretzky, 23, caused a stir late last year when she shut down her Twitter account, presumably because her famous father did not approve of the revealing photos she was sharing with thousands of followers.

Gretzky eventually resumed tweeting and is now posting party photos on Instagram. In some of the pictures, she is wearing bikinis and lingerie and striking provocative poses with her friends.

Gretzky, who has dabbled in modelling and singing, is the oldest of the five Gretzky children.
