Former Playboy playmates the Barbi Twins have sued porn king Larry Flynt to prevent his use of sexually explicit photos of the sisters.

The suit, filed this week in Superior Court, claims that someone gave Flynt photos taken by Shane Barbi’s husband, actor Ken Wahl. The photographs, taken earlier this year, show “intimate sexual acts between the twin sisters,” the suit said.

“They’ve had some nude photos before but … this is not the kind of work they want to do anymore,” said their lawyer, Jeff Le Beau.

“They were photographs that her husband took but he had nothing to do with putting them out. They were private photos,” Le Beau said.

Calls left with attorneys for Flynt were not immediately returned Wednesday.

The man who sold the pictures to Flynt also wrote an article describing the contact between Shane and Sia Barbi during the photography session, according to the suit.

The women want the photos back and do not want them published in any of Flynt’s publications. They also are seeking unspecified damages.

The twins claim that the photos will damage their career, which now includes hosting a health talk show, publishing their own health magazine and distributing various health product lines.

Both women appeared on a national TV show two years ago and acknowledged they had suffered from bulimia.

Flynt also said this week that he bought nude photos of Pfc. Jessica Lynch to publish in Hustler magazine but changed his mind because, he said, she is a “good kid.”
