Janet Jackson’s Right Breast
There’s something really cool about seeing someone expose her breast to about 130 million TV viewers, live, without (apparently) meaning to. It’s cool because all those viewers had their moment of satori, when the world suddenly stopped, and their brains shut down, and nothing made sense, giving them the barest (!) moment in which to appreciate the infinite possibilities of existence. Anyway, it probably isn’t possible that you’ve missed this, but in case you clicked past the followup, here you go: Janet Jackson’s breast exposed during halftime show.
So, CBS and the NFL are pissed at MTV, which they say will most likely never be in charge of putting on a Superbowl halftime show again. MTV says it is really, really sorry; that the incident was “unrehearsed, unplanned, completely unintentional.” Justin Timberlake says it was a “wardrobe malfunction,” that it was “not intentional” and was “regrettable.”
I’m guessing that the idea was that Timberlake would pull off the leather cover, leaving Janet’s red bra exposed. But he grabbed a little too much, leaving nothing but a silver piercing (nice contingency plan, that) between a global television audience and (gasp!) an actual unobstructed view of a human areola.
A few more links: From the Washington Post: NFL: No place for titillation on Super Bowl menu. The story mentions that FCC Chairman Michael Powell has vowed to launch “an immediate investigation”; given his previous remarks about how much he loves his TiVo (“It’s God’s technology!”), something tells me he’s done some investigating already. Apropos that: Justin and Janet steal Super Bowl show, according to TiVo.
Finally, the link you’ve all been waiting for: A certain disgusting rightwing weblogger has detailed images.
Anyway. Onward.

I don’t think this was the worst (sic) exposure they have had on a championship game before — certanly this was the most visable….
but I think TV caught people having sex at Skydome in toronto during the world series back in the early 1990’s…

I wonder if we should expect to hear about this in the next State of the Union address?

It’s nice to see someone along with me agrees that it was indeed untintentional and not some cheap publicity stunt just for sales. I have been searching all over the net for like minds :) Janet’s too classy, and too intelligent to do something like that on purpose, and play it off like it wasn’t supposed to happen.

First off I’d like to say that all the people who make a big deal about this shit are media guinea pig bastard asses. People are acting like this was tha most disturbing and obscene thing ever. I have one thing to say to these people, “Go to bed before your mommy gets mad”. Are we all such pussys that we cant see an aging pop idol’s tits to try and jump start her career which is obviously dying faster than Dick Cheney running the Boston Marathon. God did no one see tha fat naked streaker? No one makes a big deal when they see his fat naked ass runnin on tha field. Why? Because hes not an attention craveing celebrity thats why. Why dont u FCC cock riders complain about that u fuckin queers. Every1 needs to get over this cuz its not that big of a fuckin deal. If you;ve never seen a tit b4 and your over tha age of 10 ur fucked up and u need to trip and fall on a knife a couple hundred times

Hi all,
First of all a note to Jay…sure people are fussing over it a tad too much but hey easy with this Falling on a knife a hundred times thing, you sick “Jason Vorhees” piece of Shit !!!! and yes we know that these days kids as young as 10 are exposed to such nudity but that doesn’t mean that it’s right you Sick Fucking Pedophile !!! You are the lowest common denominator, Go join the neo-nazis you sadistic Bastard !!!
As Tom rightly said, it was intentional, Janet is a cheap tart and just as screwed up as her Fairy Brained Brother. On ya Tom, your a man with sense!!!!
Also Night Heron too….You know the score, your cool !!
just something for east, it’s nothing against you but please try and learn how to use the English Language a little better, you don’t have to be perfect, even the best make the odd spelling mistake but at least try..and those abbreiviations don’t save you a hell of a lot of time, but they sure make it look like a little kid wrote it or some one really un-educated, if you are the latter a sincerly appologise, but I don’t think you are some how.
Have a nice day…..Dr. Robert

Okay, I really don’t see what the big deal was about this nipple exposure experience, but I just wanted to say something to Robert, who calls himself “Dr. robert”:
You get onto Jay about not using the English language properly. You went on to say that “even the best make the odd spelling mistake” but that it looks like a little kid wrote his comment. Well sir, you should proof read your own words before judging others. Your last paragraph was a distaster, and it is you who sounded uneducated, “Doctor”.
That is all.
