Well mdo you think what Justin Timberlake did to Janet Jackson was planned? See this (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=494&ncid=762&e=1&u=/ap/20040203/ap_en_tv/fbn_super_bowl_jackson) if you are one of the few in the universe that don't know what happened.

Hi Dan - Couldnt vote for "Well, at least we now know that she is not Michael Jackson's Clone" cause who knows what is under Michael's shirt? (after all he is known to enjoy a bit of cut and paste).

but I might vote for "It was a honest to goodness accident." if Harrie can confirm that all women in the US routinely wear a sun-shaped "nipple shield". Whaddya say Harrie? :p :D

I missed it too. What was interesting is TIVO said this moment had the most replay on their service - see here (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=597&ncid=762&e=8&u=/nm/20040203/tv_nm/television_tivo_dc)

Which brings a side note. I did not know TIVO had access to so much info about their customers. I mean knowing when the customer rewinds is going too far.

The only shield I know about is the marker for mammograms, AnnMarie! :D

I think it was a big stunt and a big MISTAKE, too!

This type of piercing actually used to be very popular here in St. Louis (at least amongst the crowd I hung with when I was 18-19ish -- about 10 years ago). If you've seen a closeup of the "incident" you'll notice that's exactly what this is, the shield is held in place by a barbell, though all the one's I've ever seen, the barbell is actually goes through the shield too so everything stays centered and in place, but not Janet's, her barbell was all off center. I used to love this piercing b/c what's the point of a girl getting her nipple pierced with an intricate/ornate nip shield if you don't plan on showing it off?

So publicity stunt, most likely. But really, who cares? I think the people who are "outraged" by the "display of indecency" are funny. It's a boob, almost every woman on the planet has 2 of them and even some men.

[dammit]

LOL...are we speaking personally here baser? :D

I'm glad I don't have any....wouldn't get any work done.!!

[tweakthis]

Wow, I never knew so much about nipple piercing. All I really know is that I prefer mine intact and unadorned, or perhaps a well placed .... ummm, never mind! :ee: ;)

[lufbra]

I got piercings, ain't gonna say where!! ;)

[dammit]

Brain?? :D :D

[mawil]

In Europe, it wouldn't have raised an eyebrow. Much less all the hype that goes on here in the U. S. (I lived in Germany for a year.) :rolleyes: Big deal. It's a boob. Everyone has them. (Some more than others.) :p

[renegade600]

Brain?? :D :D

Don't you have to have one? :D

FCC Vows "Rigorous Examination" of Janet Jackson's Breast
By Joshua Nite


Washington D.C. - The FCC announced today that it would go to whatever measures necessary to accurately assess the indecency reached by the exposure of singer Janet Jackson's right breast during the Super Bowl Halftime Show last Sunday.

Bob Johnson, spokesperson for the FCC, said he wished to assure the American viewing public that the FCC was going to investigate thoroughly. "We are willing to do whatever it takes to make sure we assess fines that are stern but fair," he said.

"We currently have our entire office reviewing the tape and we will review it as many times as is necessary. We are also using the latest in digital technology to rewind, slow down, and zoom in on the offending moment. We don't care if it takes weeks, we will keep viewing the tape until we get some answers."

Johnson added that he is not certain Jackson's right breast alone can provide all the answers. "What we need is some context to understand how much of Jackson's body was exposed. It is our sincere hope that Ms. Jackson will aid us in our investigation by providing photographs of her entire body, preferably in various poses. And high heels. Definitely high heels."

Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson shocked the viewing public when Timberlake pulled aside part of Jackson's outfit during a steamy duet, revealing Jackson's right breast. Jackson's nipple was not visible, obscured by a cyborg implant from Starbucks, which allows Jackson to store and serve cafe au lait from her enhanced bustline.

In related news, hyperapologetic Justin Timberlake addressed Janet Jackson's mother in a heartfelt mea culpa this afternoon. The announcement came following reports that Jackson burst into tears after the fateful reveal. Bravely sniffling back tears, Timberlake asserted that "he was for real" and that he never meant to make Mrs. Jackson's daughter cry. "I apologize a trillion times," said Timberlake, before openly sobbing like the little girl he is.

Listen to the lyrics of the song and all questions will be answered. "before this song ends I will have you half naked" (that may not be the exact wording, but it is close) Just listen to that song and you will know what happened...

...and now, on behalf of the 80 million viewers of the Super Bowl, Terri Carlin, from Tennessee, is suing Janet, Justin, CBS, MTv, and Viacom (the parent company of MTv and CBS). :confused: This is for breaking an "implied contract" with the viewers and "As a direct and proximate result of the broadcast of the acts, [Carlin] and millions of others saw the acts and were caused to suffer outrage, anger, embarrassment and serious injury."

Even though I wasn't offended, outraged, angered, embarrassed, or injured and I could care less, I think I might have to get my name on this lawsuit anyway just to get a piece of the prize, errr I mean settlement.... :no:

serious injury??????? :no:

I can accept (barely) that others may feel the first 3 but the last seems a little extreme to me

what would people be doing to suffer serious injury after seeing a naked breast on the halftime show of the Superbowl I wonder? And what constitutes serious injury? :confused:

Good call AM :bouncy:

At superbowl parties everywhere, drunken men and women made a mad dash at the TV set at the sudden and unexpected appearance of Janet's breast, causing some people to be trampled, while others just began fighting to be at nose length from the TV. Many serious injuries were reported. There was a report of one death, though it appears the individual died when he tripped over his dog and fell face first through the TV. It is unclear if he died instantly or if he suffered as would be proper.

But seriously, it's pretty ridiculous, and apparently her lawyers figured that out and have since dropped the suit according to MSNBC last night.
