When we read the April issue of Marie Claire, we seriously bugged out over the story, “My Sister The Porn Star” by Robert Radin. First of all, it was depressing and creepy, two words we’re not used to associating with a fashion-happy lady mag. Second of all, it kind of pissed us off that the writer of the story seemed to be weirdly voyeuristic and, dare we say it, pervy about discovering that his sister was an adult film star. While the article went into the details of Radin’s sister’s tragic life, it didn’t give any insight into whether, you know, he gave a crap if she was dead or alive. Her story seemed like a quick and easy way for him to make a quick buck. Thankfully, we’re not alone in this sentiment. Nerve sums it up very nicely.

I didn’t read the article til this post. I’m kind of suprised that Marie Claire would print that—it has no redeeming value. It was totally pervy and creepy, and the fact he didn’t try to help his sister is pretty awful—even if his family makes him feel sick.

I know who Robert Radin’s sister is. I have an inside connection who tells me she is writing her own story, which will be out sometime next year. I know for a fact that she has also anonymously blogged in rebuttal to her brothers article. Here is a link to her blog: http://onphyre.wordpress.com/2008/08/10/robert-radin. I will say this; Robert Radin’s story IS true. It is not a work of fiction. (Yes, Virginia, he really is an #&@$%.) Soon, we will all know who she really is.
