EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Glee Star Dianna Agron's Brother Says Criticism Of Mag Spread Is 'Outrageous'
Oct. 22 2010, Published 10:45 a.m. ET
The brother of sexy Glee star Dianna Agron has leapt to his sister's defense in the wake of the risqué GQ magazine shoot that some have labeled "near-pornographic."
"That's so outrageous," Jason Agron told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.
"My sister has turned down a lot of roles because she does not want to be naked. I looked at the pictures in the magazine and they're not bad at all. I trust my sister and her judgment."
The 24-year-old Glee actress apologized on her blog for causing any offense, but stuck by her decision to pose provocatively for the GQ spread.
"My sister would never take inappropriate pictures," Jason, 22, told RadarOnline.com.
Agron, along with Glee-mates Lea Michele and Cory Monteith, shot a "provocative" photo spread for GQ magazine and are featured on its November cover.
The Parents Television Council has since raised concern, saying the photos "border pedophilia."

In a statement, the council blasted Glee producers for allowing the three to participate in a "hyper-sexualized" photo spread. They said "It is disturbing that GQ, which is explicitly written for adult men, is sexualizing the actresses who play high school-aged characters on Glee in this way," they said. "It borders on pedophilia."
