Houston, we have a problem.

Talk about dumb. Talk about not thinking. Talk about selfish, self-conscious, self-promoting silliness. What were they thinking?

In an obvious attempt to outshine the now-infamous Britney/Madonna "kiss", Justin Timberlake exposed one of Janet Jackson's breasts...not only on national television, but during the Superbowl, the most watched tv broadcast in the world! Now, I'm no prude and I think the human body is beautiful and should be celebrated, but last night's cynical display only appeals to the worst. Innocent? Get real.

My biggest problem with it is the denial. All parties involved say they had no idea it was going to happen. Someone should go to jail just for lying so brazenly. OF COURSE it was planned; lil' Timberlake doesn't have enough strength in his hands to tear a leather bustier, or whatever the heck it was she was wearing. Look at the photos: the damn bra had tear off snaps! Janet and Justin at the Superbowl. Isn't it obvious that she wanted to flash that hideous nipple ring all along?

See, in an enlightened society, she would have come out naked anyway, and no one would have minded. In our current, still pretty much puritanical society, during our yearly beer and pizza party that we call the Superbowl, well...well, CHILDREN are watching, fer chrissakes! Keep your clothes on and finish the damn song...we want to watch the rest of the game.

It wasn't that long ago that Janet could get by on her music. Looks like she's going the way of her sister, LaToya...wonder when she'll appear in Penthouse...

More later...
