I don't speak Italian.
I'd be fascinated to know what they talk about in these kinds of things - there's no denying this is a loving and happy family, it just emanates from every video and picture, you can just see the love between them. Its very sweet.
Yet it is a bit odd that their claim to fame is dad is one of the most successful porn stars and perhaps more oddly dad is still fucking girls younger than his sons (in quite an aggressive way too it should be added) on the regular and yet the family is treated as mainstream media darlings.
I cant imagine that happening in my country. No criticism of Italy just intrigued.

My thoughts exactly! No criticism, it just strikes me as odd, because this would never happen in America. I guess you could make a case for the Kardashians, but even though their claim to fame was based on a sex tape, it was done in a way that they could claim to be the victims of a malicious leak (insert eye roll here), instead of proud pornographers. Just a thought.

Just a thought.

Not sure the comparison to Kim and Ray J holds. A private video which was leaked (circumstances may be questionable) and no massive disparity between the couple in either age or status. I think from memory they were even in a relationship.

Back in the day Rocco was the handsome porn star but that has now changed.

He's a middle aged man (still handsome) but he's often fucking girls who are much, much younger, I anticipate some even younger than his sons. There is a narrative that all girls in porn are victims (not my view but it exists) and the age difference really emphasises that.

Turning to the actual sex itself, Rocco has a reputation in the industry for extreme potentially violent/aggressive borderline sex often with young girls new to the industry, often stereotypically from poorer European countries which leads to the exploitation narrative - exactly how much is a young girl willing to do for a so called better life.

You think of the trouble the likes of Marcus Dupree and James Deen have had in the past about their aggressive behaviour in videos, it is nothing compared to Rocco.

Rocco's reputation is aligned with such brands/studios as Legal Porno where there have been reports of girls needing medical treatment because they are required to have multiple partners penetrating them at the same time, being pissed on etc. I don't like Rocco's videos anymore as they are becoming more and more aggressive and animalistic, there is no 'erotica' to them.

Not doubting that these girls are signing waivers before they take part but I just cant imagine for example if the family were interviewed on British mainstream TV that it would be a fluffy piece. Any reputable journalist would try and go at him for an exploitation/abuse angle and would surely implicate his wife and sons in it as she must be consenting to this lifestyle and his sons have been photographed on set.

I am Italian and for years I have seen the Siffedi family's participation in popular programs on the major television networks in my country

I can't explain it, but Italy is strange when it comes to porn, because at the same time it judges that environment but some of the protagonists are put on a pedestal (like Moana Pozzi, Malena, Rocco Siffedi, Cicciolina, Selen, Riccardo Schicci, Eva Hanger, etc..)

In the specific case of Rocco, he is the personification of a certain patriarchy, in the sense that he is handsome, rich, famous and is constantly surrounded by beautiful women and girls.

P.S. not to be Rocco's lawyer, but he hasn't filmed sex scenes as a protagonist for a few years, now he's just a producer and director

He performed various scenes in lockdown.

Also Cicciolina was elected to the italian parliament in 1987 (?)

I'm Italian.
Italy has always been a Country dichotomous about sex: sex centric in so many ways and at the same time sexophobic (because of the Christian religion values).
The Siffredi Family is well liked by people and tv networks and media because:
- Rocco is intelligent, honest and can behave himself in public
- his wife is sweet and strong
- his sons are beautiful, nice, humble, educated. Two princes.
- above all, they are a loving and caring family.
Family bond in Italy is important.
Sex in Italy is important
Rocco embodies two aspects: the family man and the sex machine.
That's why so many persons appreciate him in Italy.

Their popularity reminds me of when The Osbournes were big in America. People get fascinated by an unusual family that, as you said, clearly is loving. They’re having a bit of a moment too, what with Lorenzo being on the dance show, and a movie coming out based on Rocco’s life. I’m sure it helps that they’re all attractive and well-spoken, of course. People who seem contradictory are interesting, as you said.

The Osbournes also aired here in Italy and I got the same kind of family feeling. Although I think the 2 breakthrough stars of the show were Sharon and Kelly, so the female members of the family showed much more charisma than Ozzy and Jack.

The new tv series about Rocco will also focus on his difficult growing up, because he suddenly lost his older brother. His mother never recovered from that death. Rocco said that his home was so full of pain, for years, and he felt haunted and useless. Probably that fact changed the course of his life and his choices. I guess Rocco is an interesting person because, under the surface, there is more in him than an amazing cock and a hot man.
My opinion is that Rocco was born to be a pornstar. It was meant to be. He owns that role. He has the right skills and body and cock and appetite for sex. He lusts for women. But I also believe that sex and orgasms have been for him a way to wash away the pain inside him.

Have you never seen the documentary film about him, Rocco.
That covers alot of this.
He had a breakdown in the 90's and became a sex addict, he slept with men, women, hired prostitutes... and he thinks that's all down to not dealing with childhood trauma and conflating love with sex.

I saw it. The Siffredi family watched it together at a movie festival. Lorenzo said that her girlfriend, who was there with them, was pretty shocked. He reassured her telling that his father likes to exaggerate things.
Rocco talked about his sex addiction in a more recent interview.

The most famous Italian pornstar was Moana Pozzi (1961-1994). She came from a wealthy family. She decided to do porn and she soon became the queen of the genre. She was very smart and clever, outspoken, well educated, mischievous but not vulgar, very independent, unapologetic and unconventional. She was considered an icon and she still is remembered. She was interviewed by the most important journalists, writers and tv hosts. She even tried to become a politician and major of Rome. Her sudden death in 1994 was considered a mistery never solved completely. She also worked as a spy.
