In case you missed it

In case you missed the controversy, here’s the Sesame Street segment where Katy Perry sings a song for Elmo called Hot N Cold. The segment was pulled because she was allegedly showing too much cleavage. What IS the world coming to. I favor the proposed law that all infants must nurse blindfolded.

    I knew it. Its not Katy, it’s ELMO – he’s/she/it is a knee fetishist!

    And Brendan – would you mind me stealing “Burkha of the Mind” as a title for a PW piece in the future? It is so apt, it must be spread around like olive oil on good crusty French bread.

  4. I think I’m going blind here straining my eyes looking for KP’s cleavage. Wow if that’s cleavage then I think I can stop yearning for a more booby, ala Christina Hendricks! This hoopla around KP’s gorgeous breasts is so innocuous, I’m sure I’m going to get neck spasms from shaking my head in disbelief.

    Oh and be sure to check out the Onion link Eric recommended below and then follow it up with this one!

    BTW Tom Tomorrow is a GENIUS; I absolutely loved his comic this morning!

  5. There’s something very Lucille Ball-ish about Katy Perry. I just realized it. She’s totally sexy, but there’s an undeniably accessible comic/playful vibe about her, too. I wonder how she’ll grow with that.

    Oh, and Fe –Elmo’s into everyone’s knees. We’re just looking for it because he’s with KP. 😉

  6. If I was between four and six, I’d probably pay more attention to Sesame Street if this was on… Nice snappy tune, lots of action, colorful backgrounds, it’s all there. Elmo too. But who’s that pretty lady? 🙂

    I seem to recall plenty of TV shows back in my childhood that had women in them who wore less, and that was the 60’s! Elly Mae Clampett, Jeanie, all those slinky women in Star Trek, ummm, all those really bad made-for-TV movies ABC used to churn out. It was all there…

    Not to mention all the hippie chicks around town as I grew older who didn’t believe in wearing bras…

    We’re really settling into a burkha of the mind around here. So sad.

  12. Hey! Jessica Rabbit she’s not!
    Loved this video.
    And – Pssst. Don’tell, OK?
    Elmo was running around in the “altogether”.
    Teehee!!

  13. Get Ms Perry into a Burka..

    That way, all our Conservative friends may mirthfully find consensus in disembodying women in the name of purity; at the same time as embracing the values shared with their Muslim brethren.

  16. yet no one ever has a problem with the fact that almost all the sesame street muppets except bert & ernie ARE NAKED!

    such hypocrisy…

  17. Really. The kids would all be in love with her. Adult women have boobs, and hers are even (mostly) covered. She looks like a fairy princess.
