MTV bleeps out Avril video

[Qacer]

Hello all,

I was killing some time watching my MTV and noticed that they bleep out Avril Lavigne's new video. When she sings "when you try to get in my pants.." they bleep it out. What's so bad about that?

Recently they have been playing a lot of videos. I've been pretty impressed.

Hint - Nobody wants to raise the ire of the FCC.

Why did that ever matter? She could have been singing to underaged guys to get in her pants only?

Avril is not very good anyway. Her lyrics are reaching...

Did you really think that I was gonna give it up to you ...
Did you really think that was something I was gonna do...

I mean... come on... even gangsta rap can rhyme without desperation like that.

FCC doesn't have any power over MTV.

Exactly. The FCC is so insane now that it wouldn't suprise me if stations wouldn't even say darn for fear of getting fined.

I understand this is to protect the kids but you can't exactly watch MTV without cable. If it's a pay service like cable is then it can be blocked by parents with their cable boxes. What's next? Am I going to hear all the XM radio stations have been censored?!?

my thoughts exactly. I wish we had the MUCH Music channel (i think they changed names) on regular non-digital cable.

Yep - you people confuse MTV with free TV:

i'd rather bleep out all instances of avril.

 

[alexjohnson16]

The following line about get in my pants has something to do with "kicking your ass" isn't bleeped out...

That makes me laugh...

What's so bad is she's got crabs down there. They should bleep out the whole video.

Censorship sucks! I hate that society is moving back in the wrong direction.
