He said when he saw the piece yesterday online he was "shocked", as it resembled something "between a mannequin and something out of the Thunderbirds".
He said if the waxwork was supposed to represent Sinead in her early 20s, when she did 'Nothing compares to you’, it failed to do so.
He said "it looked nothing like her, I thought it was hideous". He told Joe Duffy that if the piece was meant to honour Sinead’s memory, it was "inappropriate".
Mr O’Connor said if people wanted to honour his sister’s memory, then a statue should be erected in Dublin.
He said he had not been made aware that the waxwork had been commissioned.
Sinéad O'Connor’s brother John has told #Liveline he thought the newly unveiled waxwork of his late sister was 'hideous’ and like something out of The Thunderbirds.
