A BLOG BYRD DROPPING:
From THE CITY OF DIS Robin gets recognition of a term she created on her show.

THE CITY OF DIS BLOG, 3 July 2008

TRISEXUAL - (sometimes trysexual) is either an extension of, or a pun on bisexual. In its more serious usage, it indicates an interest in transgender persons in addition to bi-sexual men and women. In its more humorous usage, it refers to someone who will try any sexual experience. It is used in the song "La Vie Boheme" in the Broadway musical Rent. The term was coined by porn actress Robin Byrd.[7]

ROBIN MAKES GUEST APPEARANCE
AT "MY FIRST TIME" SHOW

firsttime
Robin was a guest on stage at a new play in the style of The Vagina Monologues featuring four actors talking about first sexual experiences, written by real people. The play is based on a website created in 1998 that allowed people to anonymously share their own true stories about their 'First Time'. Over 40,000 stories poured in from around the globe that were silly, sweet, absurd, funny, heterosexual, homosexual, awkward, shy, sexy and everything in between. These stories and the unique characters in them are all brought to life in "My First Time." A portion of the proceeds from My First Time are donated to www.SexEtc.org, part of the Teen-to-Teen Sexuality Education Project developed by Answer, a leading national organization dedicated to providing and promoting comprehensive sexuality education. Watch a video of Robin on-stage in the Home Movie section of this web page.

"DEBBIE" ANNIVERSARY BRINGS LOTS OF WEB VISITORS
Original to be released with HDTV DVD of sequel.

The 30th anniversary of the classic porn film "Debbie Does Dallas" brought unexpected traffic to this web site when promotion of an anniversary CD reminded everyone that Robin Byrd was in the cast. Although her name was originally mis-spelled as "Robyn Byrd" on the label, Robin is one of the few cast members who has became a success in the field as an entrepreneur pioneering the production and presentation of adult entertainment on television. As Robin explains it, "It's just plain luck to have been in one of the classic porn films of all time. But I'm much more proud of the work and effort I've put into making a success of "The Robin Byrd Show" for over 25 years and still going strong."

ROBIN DOESN'T FLY AS LIZZIE
From tne NEW YORK POST - Page Six Section

NYPost Page Six
FROM the separated-at-birth department: Heavy-hitting lawyer Raoul Felder was entering the Gotham magazine anniversary party at Capitale on the Bowery the other night, when organizers asked him to pose on the red carpet with a blond woman as a small army of paparazzi snapped away. "I thought it was Lizzie Grubman," Felder relates. "So I said to her as the photographers were taking our picture, 'I just spoke to your father [entertainment lawyer Allen Grubman].' She replied, 'My father is dead,' and walked away. I thought it was a very tasteless joke, so I asked someone who was with me if that was really Lizzie, and they told me that it was actually Robin Byrd. They look a lot alike!" Maybe to Felder - but although the two New York blondes share a similarly chiseled jaw, Grubman, 34, has little else in common with Byrd, 48, the longtime emcee of public-access cable soft-core porn programming. Also in defense of the publicity princess' looks, Felder, 68, referred to the ceremonial red carpet as the "green" carpet, so maybe the legal eagle's eyesight is a little hazy these days. Also in attendance at the Rudy Giuliani-hosted bash were midget maven of mating Dr. Ruth Westheimer, Naomi Campbell, actor Chazz Palminteri, Damon Dash, Fran Drescher and catwalking heiress Lydia Hearst.

BLONDS NIGHT OUT!
