Oh, so it's a common thing to have bare breasts on network tv during the world's biggest sporting event? C'mon, there was a line crossed tonight.

I didn't say it was "common." I said it was hardly "shocking." As in, unexpected and inconsistent with past trends. For example, MTV having a modestly dressed gospel singer do the half-time show would be shocking. JJ's boob may be briefly attention-getting, but shocking it ain't.

I guess you were shocked when Britney & Madonna kissed, huh?

Parents who don't allow mtv, got mtv, at party's with their children and teens.

The whole half-time show was trash.

Janet and Justin get hot
By Toby Forage

IT might be rebadged the Super Boob next year after Justin Timberlake sent the half-time Super Bowl show into X-rated territory by tearing off half of Janet Jackson's bra.

After two touchdowns in the real game, the evening's "top-down" came at the end of a show headlined by Jackson and including the wild man of pop - who was the show's secret special guest.

The stunning stunt appeared to have been planned all along, with Jackson sporting a strategically placed star over her right nipple, which had been exposed to the watching millions. (Super Bowl takes grip)

Later it was confirmed that CBS, which broadcasts the Super Bowl and half-time show, had approved the tear-of strip.

Hip hop star Nelly had rapped through his hit Hot N Here moments earlier, and the line: "I am getting so hot, I'm wanna take my clothes off", appears to have been taken literally by Jackson and Timberlake.

The half-time show was as extravagant as ever, and the crowd played its part, drowning out much of the performance - which also included P. Diddy and Kid Rock - with their cheers.

Jackson started with her hit All For You before P. Diddy launched into Bad Boy For Life ahead of Nelly's contribution.

Kid Rock shredded his vocal cords in characteristic fashion with a rendition of Badwitdaba before Jackson returned to sing Rhythm Nation.

Her "moment" with Timberlake came as the pair sang his hit Rock Your Body.

The pre-match show also treated fans to a feast of music, with Aerosmith, Willie Nelson and Toby Keith performing as well as Beyonce producing a rousing national anthem.

Justin Timberlake certainly acted shocked and appalled by that, yet he exposed Janet's breast tonight!

And yeah, I do kind of expect an event on network TV that's supposed to be family viewing to not have nudity.
