Gimme Less!!!!! Shocks what kinda cookity mess is this right here? ” It’s Britney bitch” ? Isn’t that the most random line eva? I guess a discount dollar store wig is better than going commando huh? Britney needs a Tina/Crypt makeover like yesterday……
The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia will decide whether it was fair for the FCC to fine CBS for broadcasting Janet Jacksons partially exposed breast when it was an accident that couldnt have been forseen. Justin Timberlake, who was performing with Jackson during the 2004 Super Bowl halftime performance and ripped off the material that exposed her breast, called the whole thing a “wardrobe malfunction” at the time.
After the, incident, the FCC slapped CBS Corp. with a $550,000 fine for violating the country’s anti-indecency laws. CBS appealed, calling the agency’s $27,500 fine for each of the network’s owned-and-operated stations “illogical.” The network, which was owned by Viacom Inc. at the time, argued that the flash was unintentional during a live broadcast, and therefore, beyond their control.
“Lacking any evidence to support the initial speculations about network complicity, the commission instead reached the illogical conclusion that the halftime show was designed to ‘pander to, titillate and shock the viewing audience’ despite the fact that Viacom did not plan the sole part of the performance the FCC says made it indecent, the ‘costume reveal’; did not know about it in advance; did not sanction it (and would not have done so had it known); and took steps to prevent anything at odds with broadcast standards,” CBS said in its appeal. “But as a matter of simple logic, something cannot be ‘designed’ without advance knowledge.”
The FCC, however, contends that “even relatively fleeting references may be found indecent where other factors contribute to a finding of patent offensiveness.” The agency also contends that the parent company should have known that any event produced by MTV, also owned by Viacom, has the potential of being offensive.
“The Viacom organization knew, or surely should have known, what was to come,” then-FCC chairman Michael Powell said at the time. “The fact that Viacom promoted the halftime show before it aired as one that would be shocking gives credence to their culpability. Unquestionably, Viacom consciously took the risk and thus now bears the responsibility.”
Is this really necessary? The old men at the FCC probably enjoyed that show…Besides it isn’t like anybody is seeing anything for the first time….I mean come one most of us were all breast fed….
Michael Jackson released a statement to Access Hollywood regarding the eye-popping performance of Chris Brown on Sundays MTV Video Music Awards. During his set, the 18-year-old did a spot-on snippet of Jacksons Billie Jean dance from the Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever television special in 1983. Chris is a bright and shining star whom I enjoy watching perform, Jackson said. I am happy to have had a positive influence on him. Browns sophomore album, Exclusive, is scheduled to hit stores on November 6
Where you at Mike? I’ve been waiting for a good minute now for that comeback….

This is what happens when the cript workers put too much convict hair on that lacefront….
So Buju finally gave in….hmm not saying it is wrong of him, but lets be real folks if you listen to the lyrics they don’t exactly sound “gay friendly”. You gotta do what you gotta do though to make that paper…..I’ve seen nuff times when gay protesters blocked reggae shows….I’d rathe rhave someone sign something of their own will……
Laure Ann Gibson is currently shopping this pilot for her own reality show…which is supposed to follow and show her road to superstardom.
“Not only am I gonna make an album, but I’m gonna be a superstar”…can’t you just settle for star…..cause superstardom is a whole buncha “tat tat” away…..
Gay-rights activist Peter Tatchell and his Stop Murder Music campaign have launched the Reggae Compassionate Act, which states they “respect and uphold the rights of all individuals to live without violence due to their religion, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity or gender.
I guess that’s one step in a directiion huh….but lets be real here this is not going to change anything overnight. Beenie and Sizzla though I love dem had to do this because most of their overseas show kept getting cancelled. Elephant Man, TOK, Bounty Killa, Vybz Kartel, and Buju Banton didn’t sign the act, and I don’t expect that to happen anytime soon either….
Anybody ever heard bounty’s “Dat a True”?…..that song alone, though there are many more, just goes to show that this whole homophobia thing is deeply in the scene and isn’t going anywhere soon….
