Did anyone else see if Justin Timberlake pulled off Janet Jackson's top?

"Well, no, I guess not. She was wearing a pasty. And most women I know rarely wear clothing with tear-away breast cups."

I thought she looked kinda pissed. It might have taken a moment for her to realize what had happened. As to the COSTUME she was wearing - that's not normal clothing. That's something some crazy designer came up with. It order for it to fit like it did, it may have required velcro on cups. I dunno - but it is possible.

If that is the case, Justin may have known that and may have acted of his own volition. Dunno that, either. Maybe we'll find out.

Overheard: "I HAVE WATCHED IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND I CAN'T TELL IF IT IS A PASTY OR A PIERCING, BUT AS SOON AS WE KNOW FOR SURE, I WILL BE ~REALLY~ OFFENDED! Anyone got a close up? Ping me if there is a close up!"

I love Free Republic!

My husband is on the phone to AOL now P>I'm sure the Indian who answers the phone will have no clue as to what he's speaking of.

[FreedomPoster]

I think post 115, just after yours, nails it.

[phalynx]

Oh, there is no question. You are right. It's not the way it happened, it is THAT it happened.

[JulieRNR21]

I was thinking during the show that she was rather modestly dressed compared to the chorus....now we know why....they planned the contrast so that when he pulled off the velcro cup it would be very obvious!

[I still care]

Normally I don't get offended at a flag on clothes, but it just looked sort of crass- the flag is sort of beat and has a thread hanging from it, and a hole cut in the middle. But I give him a pass too - I think he was trying to be patriotic and didn't realize how it would come off.

[COURAGE]

Yup, your right. I seem them before (and where is nobody's business!). I's like a a pin that used in a wrap dress or a clasical Greek dress. I's seems a star shield covering her nipple and the pin going through her shield and.... guess you can figure out the rest. Ow...that hurts me and I'm male.

Kid Rock is a clueless, classless idiot.

[bolobaby]

Drudge seems to have a scoop.

1. It was planned.
2. It was approved by CBS.
3. It was a tassle that covered her nipple.

[Bush Cheney]

When I first saw this I thought it was a mistake...even more so when CBS immediately cut away.....but now apparently it was by design? What the hell is wrong with CBS?

[JulieRNR21]

The flag was nothing compared to the finale....I am livid over the disgusting stunt those two degenerates played before our children!

CBS, AOL & the NFL should issue an apology & those two perverts should be fined millions for ruining a national family event!

[Not A Snowbird]

No. I left the room when they started doing simulated sex acts.

[tricky_k_1972]

This is a link to a close up, and yes it is deffinatly a pasty,

OUTRAGE AT CBS AFTER JANET BARES BREAST DURING DINNER HOUR; SUPER BOWL SHOW PUSHES LIMITS

**Exclusive**

Top CBS executives approved a musical skit where Janet Jackson would expose her breast during the MTV-produced Super Bowl half-time concert, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

"It decision to go forward, went to the very top of the network," a well-placed source explained from New York.

The groundbreaking scene came during the most-watched television broadcast of the year -- and during the dinner hour for the nation's west coast viewers.

In a press release before Sunday's game, CBS's sister outlet. [VIACOM's] MTV promised "Janet's Shocking Moments."

"I'll get you naked by the end of this song," sang performer Justin Timberlake, moments before he ripped off Jackson's top, exposing a bare breast -- the nipple covered by a tassel.

CBS's main New York switchboard was immediately bombarded with complaints about the stunt, netowrk sources said late Sunday.

I thought the whole halftime was an outrage....but what more can we expect from MTV? A bunch of immature drug addicts run that network anyway. When is the Super Bowl ever going to produce a decent halftime show?

Uh...no. Sorry. People don't wear tear-away clothing so it will fit right. They wear it so it can be torn off.

I missed that, but the thought sickens me. I suppose she is good looking, but I can't get her brother out of my head when I see her. Anyway, I am annoyed that they didn't show the parachute guy, or whatever happend right before the 3rd quarter kickoff. What were they thinking? Did they really think that we would rather look at that dude's face rather than see the action on the field?
