I fond this "outrage" to be comical ( hypocritical really ). You're supposed to be able to SHOW it but NOT TALK ABOUT IT?

Rap singers can sing about killing women and using expletives to describe them and be allowed to sing them at the Grammies?

You can use the word : VAGINA in the title of a play with nary a peep, and not use the word Boobs?

Who creates these rules?

Women both in the audience and watching at home were offended by the song, calling it crass and inappropriate.

It was crass and inappropriate for them to do it in the first place.

I still remember seeing the movie where Julie Andrews exposed herself for the first time on screen. What a boring disappointment.

Yes, the Oscars, which a few years ago awarded Best Song to “It’s Hard Out Here For a Pimp,”

Actually, I think this whole thing is a misunderstanding based on a mis-heard lyric.

I think the title was actually "We saw (that) you're boobs!"

"...great American actresses, you're talking about Angelina Jolie"

WTF?

You're talking about the great American actresses, you're talking about Angelina Jolie and Meryl Streep. People who have had long and successful careers, have won awards...

...have shown us their boobs!

When the “Boobs” number was playing the camera focused on the female actors as they were named. All of them looked upset.

One was named that had never had her boobs exposed on the big screen and she gave a smile and at thumbs up.

A bit ironic considering the booming industry of plastic surgery in the entertainment community.

McFarlane made a porn reference less than 10 seconds into his opening monologue, the idea that this group of folks and their entire industry has any decorum or class is nonsensical, let alone that this “awards show” is anything but more putrid filth from them is laughable.

There is no class in Hollywood, it is a land of pedophiles and hedonists, using their venue to try to force their warped values on the rest of us.

Anyone remotely outraged by anything Seth did is an idiot, he did what he has always done, and fact no one complained when it was announced he would be the host shows you just how much they care.

The Oscars were hosted by Seth McFarlane... famous for "Family Guy" and "Ted", both comedies that are enjoyed because they are crass and inappropriate. Exactly what did they expect?

He sang a song, in a tux, with a campy 50's show tune feel, with a team of male dancers in tuxes, twirling and smiling. He mentioned the names of the actresses and their films. Nothing more.

He didn't SHOW the boobs (although the multi-million-dollar productions did, and numerous webpages catalogue them, and PR firms hyped the movies for public viewing). Maybe someone would show false "offense" at the actresses, who showed their boobs, for money, with full knowledge in advance that their boobs would be seen by as many people as they could induce to see the film.

“You can use the word : VAGINA in the title of a play with nary a peep, and not use the word Boobs?”

Anyone beside me wholly fed up with the annual re-run of “Vagina Monologues” in your college campus communities?

Of course, they ignored the most offensive joke of the night, and with Kristen Chenoweth singing it right beside him.


Here's to all the losing works of art, from Lincoln to Amour.
To the disappointed actors wondering what they dressed up for.
Now the real performance start, with phony smiles at the ball.
Here's to the losers, bless them all!

Here's to nominee Quvenzhané, lift up that little head.
You'll be at the future Oscars, when the rest of us are dead.
You have all Tom Cruise's talent and you're equally as tall!
Here's to the losers, bless them all!

Oh, Bradley Cooper! Get your chin off the floor.
Here's your silver lining: You'll do Hangover 4!
And the Best Supporting Actress nominees who lost to Anne Hathaway: Amy Adams, Jacki Weaver, Sally Field and Helen Hunt...
Hathaway took away your Oscars, don't you think that girl's a... dorable?


Notice the rhyme that didn't rhyme?

I did.
