February 5, 2004 -- Janet Jackson's bare-boob bust-out has gotten her booted from the Grammys. A source close to the record-industry awards show told The Post the producers - under pressure from CBS, which is airing the Grammys Sunday at 8 p.m. - told Jackson's representatives her presence would overwhelm the telecast.

It's not guilt by association. Its the fact that the performers musical style is inconsistent with the values of the NFL viewing audience.
If we wanted to watch porn we'd rent a porn tape or something. We want to watch football. Bring back the half-time marching bands and get on with the game.
All these half time extravaganzas merely drive up the price of the game and return no value whatsoever. In fact, as seen by the SB halftime show, they are direct attacks on our values. The NFL needs to severely restrict anything associated with the NFL to maintain family values else they will destroy their market
They should also have excluded Timberlake. It's about time some standards are enforced.
No way, however, did MTV, CBS, and the clueless Tagliabue not know what was coming. It was hinted in advance. They thought they would get away with it and did not expect the widespread viewer resentment.
Assume it was an accident (though I don't believe that). He is still at fault for lewd and lascivious behavior. Had he not been acting like an animal, simulating sex on stage, it would not have happened. The fact he does not realize his own actions are a sure sign he ain't a man.
It was all planned.
She's not "the scapegoat". Nobody shoehorned her into the costume with the breakaway thingy. Why she's covering for MTV not knowing, when I'm sure they did, I have no idea except they may have promised to help promote her album like never before in the wake of this disgrace.
As to sales? They will be in the basement.
Idiot Timberlake ought to be axed from the Grammys as well, as he's lying, too. I saw this tape of his "I didn't know. I was SHOCKED". Lie after lie after lie.
Are you not pleased that they dropped her? My only question is what took them so long to make this decision and why in the heck they haven't already axed Timberlake.
Topic switch. I've been reading Damage Them All You Can...(so-so book on the Army of Northern Virginia) and lo and behold guess who makes an appearance at Gettysburg and at Mine Run. A regiment from Flordia... and they were fiesty fighters. :)
The joys of alliteration.
Song: Blowin' Me Up (With Her Love) Lyrics
Saw you 'round the other day,
Shorty she was all the way
Looked like you were feeling me
So I had to come and see
Girl he wasn't tryin' to hate
But she had to demonstrate
That she was the queen to be
But she couldn't fight the chemistry
and I say...
I I I
I can't lose you, no
I I I
Nooooo
She was disco lights on a Friday night
She moves across the floor
Suga!
She was o so tight like dynamite
Blowin' me up with her love
She was on the phone with me
All night long
I just can't get enough
She was ah ah oh, ah ah oh
Blowin' me up with her love
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh....
Girl its just the sexy way
You back yourself into me
You're more then just a pretty face
You're better then a fantasy
Come on baby
Don't ignore me
I know what you're feeling for me
You can't fight it
Cause you want me
Don't you miss this or you'll be sorry
So tell me what it's gonna take
You've got me all bent out of shape
Thinking bout you all day
And how you gonna make me wait
and I say..
