NBC Cuts Pamela Anderson Pole Dance Video
15 minutes ago
Pamela Anderson and pole dancing proved too hot for NBC, which dropped a number featuring the actress in a sexy big-screen video from an Elton John special.
"Elton John: The Red Piano," a Las Vegas extravaganza taped at Caesars Palace, aired Monday night without the segment in which John sang "The Bitch is Back" while an oversized screen behind him displayed a scantily clad Anderson.
The actress moved suggestively around a dance pole in the number, which was included in preview copies sent out to critics.
After an assessment by its standards and practices department the network decided the material didn't mesh with the time slot.
"We believed the content was not appropriate for 8 p.m.-7 central time and decided to pull the song from the special," NBC said in a statement Tuesday.
A call seeking comment from Anderson, who stars in the Fox sitcom "Stacked," was not immediately returned Tuesday.

One of the great tragedies of mankind . . . is the fact that this thread will not have pictures.
Wrong.
LVM
homos and sluts, just what the world wants!
Elton John and Pamela Anderson doing something unfit for for the 8 p.m. time slot? Shocking.
What's really shocking is that someone decided not to air it anyway.
Look who else was there.
Oh, look! It's Maureen Dowd!
I'm sure MTV is going to rush out and uses this for the superbowl halftime show.
In other news, a Utah man with AIDS has sex with a 14 year-old boy and receives 90 days probation as his "punishment". The USA is on its last days. Ignorance and unbalanced justice is killing this nation.
You guys are sooo easily manipulated.
She used to have a lot more meat on them bones.
"Pamela Anderson and pole dancing proved too hot for NBC, which dropped a number featuring the actress in a sexy big-screen video from an Elton John special."
NBC then reshot the segment with Helen Thomas filling in for Anderson.
Somebody at NBC up to something?
Hmm. Now if CZJ had been pole-dancing, I'd be protesting NBC Standards & Practices for dropping the segment.
Hold me closer, Tony Danza...
