What's particularly ironic about this whole fiasco is, if it was so offensive and shocking, why did they keep replaying it on every news segment? Why not just drop it the day after?

That b!tch makes me sick to my stomach, her and that child-molesting brother of hers. She did all this on purpose to take the media heat off him. She's butt ugly, and hasn't had a hit song in a decade. They all should be given the death chamber.

That's fine. I prefer it that way. Fly under the radar. That way, all the other teams in the NFL will forget that when the Pats come to town, they're in for a major azzwhoopin'.

@ least it's opened up a dialog about how enlightened Europe is in the viewing of boobs on TV.

We're all enlightened now, right?

Now if we can get Michael on TV molesting (loving) children for us, we'll be truly enlightened.

I'm enlightened are you?

Hey, WHERE is Sweetsweetleroybrown??

I'm surprised he hasn't written to complain about how this is all about race and that her boob had nothing to do with it.

i think it's sad that justin timberlake was the one who removed the tit protector and didn't get any criticism for it (compared to janet).

Glad it was Janet's and not Timberlake's! Titillating all the kids though, that's just not right. :D

Holy fvck, america is full of idiots. I mean, I knew that, but still, as much as I think I'm at terms with the stupidity that prevails I am still liable to get broadsided at times.

If Janet is banned.. so should Justin. They were both (a) part of the incident (pardon the pun)

What bothers me is how they praise her for her albums, which are chock full of sexual lyrics, yet when a boob is shown they freak out! Geeze, when you look at lyrics like "Come baby, don't stop, don't stop, go deeper, baby deeper, I'll give you the time of your life" and much, much more, a boob pailes in compairison.

The academy is talking out of both sides of it's mouth. If they were to ban everyone who has done something controversial, the musci industry would be boring.

WTF are you talking about, nimrod?!?! Everyone of her album has gone multiplatinum, and her last hit song was out in 2001. Her new album is poised to become a hit also - the first single was already getting tonnes of requests before the superbowl, it's undoubtedly getting 100x more now.

Her albums are brilliant - while they have many songs with a sexual theme, they're mature, but a lot of the material is really good. To say such an unfounded statement only proves that you don't know a flying fsck about what you're talking about.
