'Sesame Street' Pulls Controversial Katy Perry Duet
posted by Caryn Ganz - Thu Sep 23 2010, 9:42 AM PDT
"Sesame Street" started previewing its 41st season on the Web this week, releasing teaser clips featuring stars like Jude Law, Will.i.am, Colin Farrell, and Run-DMC's Reverend Run. One of the shorts, however, got a lot more attention than the rest: a two-and-a-half minute video of pop star Katy Perry singing a reworked version of her 2008 hit "Hot N Cold" with Elmo. The issue: the perception that Perry's outfit wasn't appropriate for a show geared toward children ages one to six.
After the clip hit YouTube Monday, Gawker ran a story that called attention to the video and Katy's look. Parents checking out the video began leaving critical comments like, "Couldn't she wear something that was more. oh idk. APPROPRIATE" and "I DO NOT want my five year old lookin at [that]!" But, as TMZ notes, Perry wasn't actually half-naked -- her outfit featured a flesh-colored mesh top that went all the way up to her neck, like a figure-skating costume.

Yeah....I know....but did they really think that a guest with her boobs hanging out wouldn't get noticed?! It's pretty fucking stupid of them I think....it was bound to cause an issue.★ 1995 - Brisbane ★ 1998 - Brisbane ★ 2003 - Brisbane ★ 2006 - Brisbane ★

Ever since nipple-gate at the Super Bowl it's been like this
The kid sees more T and A watching the TV with Mom during the day
The only time I was actually interested in watching Elmo and they ruined it !

that was my first thought as well... my 2 1/2 year old wouldn't have noticed her tits. If anything it gives the dads watching a little something to seeMy whole life
