Grammys Prompt Indecency Complaints
Following last month’s Grammy Awards, several viewers were so scandalized by the artistic expression of performers like Lady Gaga and Beyonce, they filed indecency complaints with the FCC.
The “outlandish” costumes and “inappropriate” dance routines were apparently too much for these viewers to handle, and many chose to take legal action. Several leaked documents found their way to the internet today, but the misspelled complaints have succeeded only in heightening the fame, notoriety, and album sales of the offending performers.
From Pineville, NC:
“The opening act (8pm) was Lady GAGA. Show and she went too far in the costumn. The lower section of her skimmy attire-is best described as a thong. Just barely enough to cover her lower pubic hair area and she literally showed her buttocks as she ascended stairs-which revealed her exposed butt! Very inappropriate for the 8 pm viewing slot. This is the 2nd time Lady (?) Ga Ga was allowed GaGa to expose her bare buttocks on TV. Ga Ga and Jewel both pushed the envelope last night and lost us a viewers. Clean it up or send um to an R rated station! Who's minding the store, before this stuff airs in 8 PM slot?”
From Lawrenceville, GA:
“…beyonce simulated fellatio+lady gaga's nude buttocks and vagina was publically aired to the public. too pink did her routine in an outfit which only covered 5% of her.cbs publically aired to the public which we are all totally disgusted by shots of pinks nude buttocks&shots of lady gagas nude buttocks and vagina&direct shots of pinks nude vagina which was very barely covered…cbs should be fined BILLIONS just to insure the cbs does not ever publically air female nudity or shots of women performing a simulated sex or sex act ever again.”
From Douglasville, GA:
“The Grammy's 1st 3 acts were outlandish! Lady Gaga was barely covered below the belt! Her rear end was very exposed and that is inappropriate. Pink wore a nude suit, however you could see her tattoo's through the suit so I am apt to believe that you could see her rear end while dangling from the ceiling. Beyonce grabbed her crotch and proceeded to get down on her knees where her breast almost fall out of her dress…My children were watching this durning PRIME TIME and this is what they view. How disappointing this was. I had to explain to a 10 year old why turning on a tv now is a hazard!”
From Savannah, TX:
“Please fine them and compel whomever puts such smut on the television to make it viewable for people of all ages - and that includes commercials (so no Enzyte, feminine products, cheat on your spouse ads either) - or find some way to prevent shows like this from being aired on television at all.”
