February 5, 2004 -- Janet Jackson's bare-boob bust-out has gotten her booted from the Grammys.

Thanks for the lyrics, but really those are pretty tame by the standards of the music industry.The NFL also said they were worried about the choreography. Given the song's title, perhaps the problem was that Monica Lewinsky was going to be the special guest star? ;)

I had to do a double-take because I, at first, read the headline of this thread incorrectly. Thought it read "Grannys Boot Janet." Have to admit it is an interesting visual of the mind.

Thanks for the lyrics. The title sent my mind to images of Palestinian children getting fitted for their belts!

When what happened happened, I was shocked and appalled," So Saith Justin Timberlake.That line rings as true as Britney Spears statement claiming to have remained a virgin for the 3 years she and Justin Timberlake dated. When in reality they devouring each other in every 5 star Hotel on earth. Children always deny it......LOL

If Jackson is banned, Timberlake should be as well.

PLus he seems to miss the point that it isn't about a bare breast - it's the whole act.

"Can anyone confirm an observation I had read from a poster on another thread that the Jackson routine might have been based loosley or otherwise on "A Clockwork Orange motif"?

"Does anyone know who owns Virgin Records? Would it be Viacom, perchance? "
Great question. Pretty sure they are seperate as in Virgin is British and overseen by the wealthy high profile guy who I have seen promote his airline.
