CBS apologizes for Janet Jackson's breast-baring end to halftime show

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

NEW YORK (AP) - CBS apologized on Sunday for an unexpectedly R-rated end to its Super Bowl halftime show, when singer Justin Timberlake tore off part of Janet Jackson's top, exposing her breast.

"CBS deeply regrets the incident," spokeswoman LeslieAnne Wade said after the network received several calls about the show. The two singers were performing Rock Your Body, a flirtatious duet to end the halftime show. At the song's finish, Timberlake reached across Jackson's leather gladiator outfit and pulled off the covering to her right breast. The final lyric of the song goes, "Going to have you naked by the end of this song."

The network quickly cut away from the shot, and did not mention the incident on the air.

Timberlake said he did not intend to expose Jackson's breast.

2. But LYNCHING is approved?!?

Has there been no complaint about Toby Keith's song "Beer for my Horses" which advocates lynching? That seems worse to me than one boob!

Just look at what happened to Clinton compared to what has happened to Bush.

/sarcasm off.

[theHandpuppet]

69. Not to mention this year's commercials...

... for everything from potato chips to beer to internet service in which "white men only" get to degrade women, the disabled and the elderly. I think the commercials hit a new low this year for lowbrow and offensive "humor". The only thing they needed to top it off was the OfficeMax commercial so they could toss in a little racism to boot. I guess having Toby Keith perform was the next best thing.

[chelsea0011]

80. Not one positive image of women.......

My wife and I were rolling our eyes all night. We did not see one commercial or act that showed any women in a positive light. From half naked eye candy to screaming, nagging wives to Janet having her clothes ripped open, by a white guy no less, there was not one woman who I can remember that sticks in my mind positively. Even Aerosmith crushes the Columbia tribute by by a video of them as astronauts on the space shuttle. Was that done laughs? Because, I was sure laughing.

[frank frankly]

14. that POS song certainly advocates lynching!

I heard that POS Toby while in Idaho and my head exploded.

he is such a racist moron bastard.

[toopers]

103. I am not sure if you are referring to the song or not

in your claim that Toby is a racist, but the song does not suggest that people should lynch black people.

[PROGRESSIVE1]

18. Country is the Devil's music.

:puke:

[stevedeshazer]

21. No, it isn't.

What passes for country music today is, though.

[CO Liberal]

23. And Toby Keith Is The Devil!!!!

:evilfrown:

[JanMichael]

81. Anyone have the lyrics to that song?

I'd look them up myself but frankly I don't wish to spoil my morning.

[stevedeshazer]

93. I was wondering about THAT boob

The one standing next to Willie Nelson.

[LiberalFighter]

106. I didn't bother watching that scumbag.

[SemperEadem]

113. Thank you for saying this

I, too, was deeply offended by that song sung by Willie Nelson and whomever the talent-less worm singing it with him about lynching.

Why isn't everyone up in arms about that?

They were glorifying a hideous criminal act, done mainly to blacks in this country, through a song, sung to millions of impressionable young children.

How anyone could get up there and arrogantly sing the words about something so pattently offensive to a large segment of the American population and think they are being patriotic escapes me.

If someone got up there and sang a song glorifying indiscriminately raping old women, there would be so much whining in the press today you wouldn't see daylight. I feel that the plug should have been pulled halfway through that song and Nelson and the worm apologize for being so brazenly offensive in bringing something like that song to the attention of the American population--some of whom who've had family members wrongfully strung up a tree and lynched...

Whatever Jackson and Timberlake did did not rise to the level of offense that that song did.

[Momof1]

3. Michael Jackson will be off the front pages for awhile

The intent is clear, and obvious.

[ugarte]

4. OMG, a breast!

What about all the children who've never seen a breast!

I'd rather my children go die in an illegal war than see a breast.

[Turley]

84. What about the message that violence against women is acceptable?

The D.U. seems to be missing this issue by a mile. IMO the main issue is not the nudity; it's about the message (especially to young men) that if you like the way she looks, like the way she dances, it's perfectly OK to just reach over and rip her clothes off.

Great message folks! And D.U.er’s are just applauding this for no other reason than that the conservatives can't stand the nudity. Or perhaps someone more culturally sophisticated than myself can explain to me the aesthetic value of Justin Timberlake pulling Janet Jackson's 40 year old boob out of her shirt. I guess I just don't appreciate "high art".

[Ripley]

87. I'm with you Turley.

It says that violence against women is okay, because the women really like it...you know aphrodisiac to have someone rip your clothes off.

This whole SB bugged the shit out of me so much, I may have to re-evaluate my love of the game my whole life. The incessant half-screen commercials about the Survivor story COMING NEXT (like it is what people were really looking forward to...not the game itself), the juvenile mysogynst commercials including an old man kicking an old woman to the floor, the entertainment looked bad enough so I turned it off and thankfully missed seeing plastic surgery middle aged Janet treated like a porn star in order to fulfill the fantasies of soldiers and football fans.

Gee when did sports get totally corrupted?

[MaineDem]

92. THANK YOU!!!

That was my initial response. Why was he "attacking" JJ in the first place??

I found this concept the most difficult to accept. He had no place even touching her.

I know most people won't see this in the same way. I wish they did. Violence against women doesn't have to produce broken bones and bloody wounds.

[SemperEadem]

114. Isn't it ironic?

one of the very first things a child has put in his face is a breast. It's the first bodily familiarity a baby has with its mother. It lays its head on its mother's breast; it nurses from its mother, if she's of that mind. But even when its being burped, it's tummy is over the breast.

We have to insist that the puritans get out of the moral compass business and grow the hell up already.

[Alpharetta]

6. matt drudge, for what it's worth, says CBS pre-approved the stunt

a couple of pictures along with his allegations

[Lorien]

44. Gee, I'm more outraged

that Timberlake is wearing such schlubby cloths for the number! I think he needs a visit from the Fab five.

[Ediacara]

45. that would just re-ignite rumors that Timberlake is gay

:-)

[Seldona]

62. The NFL claimed outrage at the stunt?

Ahh yea. Right.

[SemperEadem]

115. Hmm... maybe I should apply for a network big-wig job, huh?

since there's going to be an opening..... ;)

[dweller]

7. Remember children

it's just a flirtatious moment.

:puke:

8. And I went and skipped the half-time show

Then the Patriots didn't cover the spread. At least the game was close.

9. Have They Apologized For Kid Rock's Desecration of the Flag???

To me, that was more offensive than the sight of an implanted boob.

[stevedeshazer]

12. No kidding

THAT was offensive.

[Shadder]

16. I don't know

I find the site of Bush much more offensive.

Oh wait, were you talking about a different implanted boob?

[NewYorkerfromMass]

51. LOL! :) nt

[Syncronaut Seven]

60. The implanted boob was on first

Janet came later. :lol:

[stevedeshazer]

10. Well, my goodness gracious

Golly, they ought to. I was watching with Rod and Todd, and hey-diddly-iddly, well we have to go to Bible study now.

Sincerely,

[CatWoman]

13. LOL

okely, dokely

:D

[Meritaten1]

11. How strange life is...

Oddly fitting that CBS gets to apologize to the nation for an incident such as this, when some young women in a PETA ad were too "controversial" for Superbowl prime time.

[burrowowl]

19. They are

HYPOCRITES!

[Democat]

15. Americans can't handle even one boob?

In some countries they'd have shown two of them. In American, even one is too many for the puritans?

The same right wingers who say we should kill all fundamentalists in the Middle East are the most likely to be fundamentalists in the U.S.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

72. We've been shown one boob repeatedly since December 2000...

...he thinks he's the president.

[mikehiggins]

17. That is the last thing I would apologise for.

It was the highlight of the show.

What a gorgeous woman.

[Whoa_Nelly]

20. Didn't watch Super Bowl at all...

...but did watch moveon.org "Child's Pay" ad on CNN tonight.

24. But Kid Rock's misogynistic C**P was just fine, I guess. nt.

25. My children will not see breasts

past 1 1/2 years - when I wean them. Yeah, right. I am MUCH more comfortable w/ sex and accompanying body parts than i am with War and Death, and Suffering

\Maybe I'm just confused.

[Merlin]

26. Remember the great Tom Paxton song about Ashcroft's war on Boobs

JOHN ASHCROFT AND THE 'SPIRIT OF JUSTICE'
By Tom Paxton

John Ashcroft went to meet the press
He faced the microphones.
His heart was full of righteousness
His voice like God's trombones.
But then he saw the statue
That was set behind him there.
She was 'The Spirit of Justice'
Yes, but one of her breasts was bare.

John Ashcroft looked with horror
At this gleaming marble globe.
It thrust itself upon him
From a loosely falling robe.
It was so hard to concentrate
On those he there accused
With that marble breast behind him,
Poor John Ashcroft got confused.

Each time he saw that marble breast
The poor man was appalled,
He quickly gave the order
And a curtain was installed.
Now when he makes a statement
You can see him on the tube
He has curtained off the statue
But you'll still see one big boob.

[stevedeshazer]

28. Yup. Breasts bad. War good.

[Seldona]

65. That is awesome. n/t

[Danieljay]

27. what about the naked guy on the field

at the start of the second half. CBS cut away while they chased him down, I caught the very first part before they cut away..the announcers said something about him having a bad body. Hilarious.

[Ediacara]

49. I wasn't paying attention

I thought they were refering to the Survivor contestants, because there was a Survivor ad on just prior to the comment.

[Danieljay]

56. I guess he had on a jockstrap..

"Even then, the peep show wasn't over: Just before the second half of play began, a man wearing only a jock strap snuck on to the field long enough to set off thousands of flash bulbs before a player knocked him down and police hauled him into a dark tunnel. No instant replay "

[saigon68]

126. Nice Insecurity by Tom Ridge and HOMELAND SECURITY

They have metal detectors and "AGENTS" who grope the crotches of women who have tickets to this spectacle--

and somehow, a guy in a JOCK-STRAP, gets in and cavorts playfully on the field!!!!!

UNREAL.

[osaMABUSh]

29. Heaven forbid we mention the National Debt during the SuperBowl

Now that would have beem obscene if MoveOn.org was able to air its 30 second piece on the National Debt - well, it would have been obscene for repukes to have it seen anyway.

[hedda_foil]

30. Oh for heaven's sake, she had a stripper's pastie on.

NOBODY wears those things except old-fashioned strippers. It was fully intended to titlliate just as the staged french kiss between Madonna and Brittany was. You betcha CBS knew. And you betcha Justin and Jackson practiced the move to make sure her top would come "undone" off right on cue.

[Merlin]

31. I missed it, but I'm sure you're absolutely right.

I consider the superbowl halftime the most overrated piece of hype on tv--and there's a lot of competition for that status.

[Emillereid]

66. Do they really think women just normally wear such things?

I think the damn stunt backfired on them. This is the same station that wouldn't show an ad criticizing Bush's* deficits. They were all but advertising the thing during the pre-game titillation on their sister station, MTV, talking about Janet's shocking moments. Would that there were more tits on TV and less shock and awe.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

98. Owwww...

That looks PAINFUL...and I'm not talking about the nipple guard, I'm talking about having you boob hoisted up like that...YIKES...

[LiberalFighter]

108. When I first saw it I thought it was a pasty

But the close-up is different. But how many saw it up close? The way it was it look like her nipple was covered with a pasty. And big deal.


I wonder if she wears that all the time and if her nipples are pierced.

[aquart]

68. Nipple guard. Not pasty.

[foreigncorrespondent]

75. Wasn't a pastie.

There was a thread in the lounge last night that showed a high definition picture, which also happened to be front on, rather than the side on shots that are floating around all over the place. In this other photo you saw it. It was a star shaped body piercing, with a circle, and then her nipple poking through that.

Don't worry, I'm not a prude and not dissing what happened. I think it is quite funny, really.

[mikehiggins]

89. Was that a pastie or a nipple ring?

Janet told Oprah a couple of years ago that she wore nipple rights because, well, you know...

Even Oprah was left speechless, which is saying quite a lot.

I doubt anyone was offended at all. It's like the time Lucy Lawless left her bodice behind cheering for her team. Its funny but no big deal.

If she had been annoyed by it she would have kicked Timberlake to the curb.

Survey says: staged stunt

[LiberalFighter]

109. Nipple rights???

[proud2BlibKansan]

32. It was staged.

Why else would she have been wearing a pasty?

Does anyone else wonder what's next with the Jacksons? Tito nude?

[Dover]

36. They're just circus freaks......like the bearded lady and the midget.

Diane Arbus would have found them excellent photographic subjects.

[mouse7]

37. You got it, proud2Blib

I can't believe CBS didn't know there would be stills flying all over the net within minutes showing the pasties.

[nolabels]

33. What are they talking about?

I watched the whole thing and I never seen anything that I haven't seen before except the one play where they called ineligible defense-man down field, then I knew the whole show was getting out of hand.

Frankly 22 men on the field slapping one another on the butt and rolling on the grass together sounds a lot more racy to me. I guess it just goes to figure, there are some people out there that never want anybody to have any fun

[Dover]

34. Two fading stars in need of greater EXPOSURE.....pathetic

Had to outdo Britney's Madonna-kiss and 3 minute marriage.

Geeez.....get a clue. They're DONE!

It looks like it's held on by a post through her nipple butted against a rim around it.

nipple piercing is quite the rage these days.

[banana republican]

38. MORAL OUTRAGE

I AM MORALLY OUTRAGED BY CBS'S LACK OF CONTROL

HOW DARE THEY HAVE THE CHUTZPA TO SHOW SUCH MORAL INDECANCIES...

MY CHILDREN WERE WATCHING FOR X'S SAKE.

IF THEY CANNOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MOVE-ON AND TIT'S THEY SHOULD NO LONGER HAVE THE RIGHT TO USE THE AIRWAVES...


WHAT A BUNCH OF cRAP & bs (cbs)

[frogfromthenorth2]

41. I hope you are kidding....

[Systematic Chaos]

42. I'm sure your kids will, like, get over it, or something?

You gotta be joking, right? Please tell me you're being sarcastic?

[banana republican]

52. common folks

like can't we just move-on.....

[Lorien]

39. So, CBS gets "several" complaints about a breast

and recieves many more about not airing the MoveOn ad; so where is OUR apology?

[proud2BlibKansan]

118. Check this out

I'm a teacher and today after school we were all talking about this and tried to pull up the Drudge site on the internet to show a co-worker who hadn't seen it. But our school district's filter wouldn't let us view the Drudge site. Then we got to talking about moveon's ad and that site was accessible. So what does that tell us when CBS showed us Janet's boob but not moveon's ad but the school district lets us see moveon's ad but not Janet's boob??

[Rebel_with_a_cause]

43. CBS is more concerned about kids seeing a breast

than kids having to pay off a horrendous national debt?

Talk about screwed up values.

[proud2BlibKansan]

46. CBS isn't concerned

about kids seeing breasts. If they were, they wouldn't have shown it.

Besides, don't you guys realize we weren't seeing Janet's boob? It's a surgical replacememt.

[Catherine Vincent]

47. Calm down folks!

The Houston Police will not arrest Janet and Justin for this incident. Some of my fellow Houstonians called the cops on these two. LOL!

[proud2BlibKansan]

48. What would the reaction be

if it had been a black guy ripping a white girl's dress? Like Snoop Dog exposing Madonna?

[rocktivity]

50. Timberlake didn't INTEND to expose the breast?

How fortunate for us, then, that Janet just happened to wearing a pastie over nipple. In other words, BULLSHIT!


rocknation

[banana republican]

53. And Big Dog didn't inhale.....

[snooper2]

54. It was planned, look at this

Janet Jackson's Super Bowl Halftime promises "shocking moments"

[flaminbats]

59. no kidding...

After all, something had to be done about ratings..even if it was an accident! :wow:

[Danieljay]

61. not to mention the bra cups were snap on...

I say he should have gone for broke and exposed both breasts. First, I'm personally not offended, and second... I would love to see CBS squirm as a little justice for turning down the moveon.org add.

[SemperEadem]

117. well, if he didn't intend to expose the breast

then why were his hands on her chest? Interesting how he didn't rip the entire front of her costume off, but the cup tore nicely and cleanly away from the bodice, with no ripped seams or strings hanging about... since we're talking about intent, here.

This was staged. It was approved by a 28 yr old executive who will never get with Jackson, so he lived vicariously through Timberlake, happy with himself for greenlighting the stunt, probably bragged to his friends that he's the one who approved it and now probably feeling he should not lose his job over greenlighting something that, in the puritanical dysfunction America loves to embrace, will be viewed as offensive to most Americans.

[BenDavid]

55. My view of the one breast in

question was from a long range view. Now as to how they got a close up picture of the one breast in question is beyond me. I like breasts. I did not go on a rant and call my Rep. or Senator because a breast was shown by accident or for that matter on purpose. As I said earlier, I like breasts. Honey you nekkid? Got to go.

[Danieljay]

57. yahoo actually posted the photo

too funny. It was completely staged, she's wearing a pasty of some type. I'm wondering if this was some type of cheap shot at CBS? Ya think?

Warning, Some people might find this offensive:

67. Additional warning: Unlike their stories, there's no place to rate it

The picture, that is.

Our lives have surely changed forever.

[UpInArms]

77. you mean this one?

[pfitz59]

124. Is Justin sporting wood?

I'd be........

[Barkley]

63. That'll teach 'em not to change stations during half-time!

[Dr Fate]

64. CBS can show Janet's boobs, but not Bush deficit adds???

????

[Buns_of_Fire]

70. Slight correction: The audience saw only ONE boob

during the halftime show. The other boob was shown before the game, during the boosh* segment. 1+1=2. I think it's a regulatory constraint -- networks can only show two boobs per telecast. Therefore, if boosh* and crashcart both appear at the same time, the FCC "boob threshold" has been met, and Janet will not be invited to appear to offer the counterpoint. I think that's the way it works, anyway. :shrug:

[LiberalFighter]

110. you forgot the other two boobs

bush sr with the coin toss and toby keith

[Jacobin]

71. Is Ashcroft investigating this?

We all know how freaked out he gets when he sees a baby bottle.

[CRK7376]

73. My 14 and 9

year old sons were thrilled. Their eyes nearly popped out!Staged all the way, but what a hoot. More upsetting than showing the Janet and Justin road show was watching our Panthers lose. Then there's that other boob they show way to often named Shrub....

[ElsewheresDaughter]

86. CRK7376 you echo the reactions and sentiments of my house & sons

what's the big brouhaha about....i woould rather them see more live healthy flesh on TV than bush*s bloody maimed war carnage!

[robbedvoter]

74. CBS's standards: No Moveon but Boob-out!

I don't know zilch about sports but CBS was the big loser last night! Boooooo!

[Anaxamander]

76. I'm seriously outraged by this

We tune in to the halftime show to see half-naked women, not fully-naked women.

[sendero]

78. Not even an exposed boob....

... could make me watch that ridiculous, over-theatrical, bombastic crap being passed off as a performance. Methinks Janet has been watching Michael too much.

Fortunately, I just TIVO'd through 90% of that segment.

[Hokie]

79. CBS Super Bowl Coverage was balanced

The had two boobs and two jackasses:

Boobs:
Janet's right one and Bush* (total boob)

Jackasses:
The Asspiring Budweiser jackass and Bush*

[llmart]

82. CBS = hypocrites

They knew all along that this was going to happen yet they wouldn't let MoveOn show their anti-* ad? Give me a break! CBS should be boycotted. Anyone have an email address we can write to them and complain about?

I didn't watch the stupid-bowl but did tune into CNN to see the anti-* ad.

[saigon68]

122. Kick

[lanlady]

83. CBS actually claiming it was a "wardrobe malfunction"

-heard on the radio this morning. File that under "they must really think we're stupid." She just happened to have "malfunctioning" velcro bra cups and pasties....

[htuttle]

85. If this doesn't work to revive Janet Jackson's career...

...then it's probably time to release a sex tape on the internet. Through a third party, of course. Then she'll sue to prevent it's distribution....

(this is getting all too predictable nowdays...nobody has any imagination anymore...)

:eyes:

[JoeNormal]

123. You nailed it....

...not the nipple ring to Janet's nipple, although that could be quite pleasurable as well...but she has a new album due to be released soon. The whole utterly stupid affair is for the almighty buck!

[xchrom]

88. damn, turn about is fair play

all i want to know is why janet didn't rip justin's pants off?
a boob!?! oh now i'm all worried and offended and i've never seen anything -- oh the horror -- what will we tell the children!?!

[Stephanie]

90. Will George Bush also apologize?

George Bush also appeared on the show, giving the appearance of endorsing the show. So, will he be apologizing?

[PaDUer]

104. He was watching at the WH...

you can bet he loved it..wonder what Laura thought as his eyes popped out. Does he have another reddened area on his face today or blackeye?

[Damn Hippie]

91. Janet's Boob is the talk of the nation

today on the network news.The talking heads keep going on and on about it showing a clip of the event (boob blurred) over and over. Although they seem to be condemning the incident they can't stop reporting it.

Bread and circuses.

[htuttle]

94. That's so typicallly 'right wing fundy', isn't it?

Titilation (no pun intended) mixed right up with repression and guilt.

Show the boobs, but then say that they are BAAAAAAaaaaad, and you better not enjoy looking at them!

(for more on this topic, cf. "The Mass Psychology of Fascism", Wilhelm Reich, 1933)

[PaDUer]

105. MSNBC showing reruns of it

right now.

[sal]

95. Why didn't he wear his Kentucky Colonel outfit?

Maybe next year 50 cent will rip off Britney's top?

We're doomed.

[havocmom]

96. as much as I hate the lawsuit-happy nature of our culture,

I truly hope that any young lady who gets 'defrocked' by a young man imitating this at a school dance gets a good lawyer and goes after CBS for promoting and giving tacit approval to attacks on women.

Not appalled at breasts. Am grossly appalled at the T&A culture of women at sporting events being treated as objects. When done this way, it seems like planned incitement of baser behaviors. It is in keeping with the hard right leadership to whip the masses into a fury filled bunch of non-thinking bots.

Anybody have the stats on domestic violence calls after Super Bowls in the past? I seem to recall there is a spike in them at that time. I do not think it is just a strange coincidence.

[Suspicious]

102. I agree.

Like you, I am not bothered in the slightest by the exposed breast (although the blatant hypocrisy of CBS is irritating, to say the least); however, the manner in which the stunt was performed is upsetting to me. I am infuriated by the subtle message this type of "entertainment" broadcasts far and wide - that objectification, degradation and humiliation of women is not only acceptable, it's entertaining.

I am sick to death of seeing crap like this extolled throughout our culture.

[Freddie Stubbs]

97. Wardrobe malfunction?

What was it supposed to do when he yanked on it?

[BiggJawn]

99. "Wardrobe Malfunction". That's it, this Country's DONE for!

What? were BOTH cups supposed to come off or something?

Anyone who would buy ANY of the bullshit about this ("malfunction", CBS "regrets" it, etc)
ought to have the hide flogged off their back with a stupid stick!

And while Murka rolls over and butters themselves over this, John Ashcroft moves to take away more of our Rights....

[EV1Ltimm]

100. CBS should be bragging.

"Look what we have brought you, the viewer!"

I would nod in solemn reflection for the good things that CBS brought me on sunday.

May it be repeated in thy mercy, CBS. Amen.

[davidinalameda]

101. is this a karma payback for not running the MoveOn ad

that's all I could think about when I heard this

[yellowcanine]

107. Big Deal. Meanwhile, the Bush lies about WMDs are yesterday's news.

How many people died because of Janet Jackson's boobie?

[brownhornett]

111. Half time show for next year's superbowl.

We can have justice Roy Moore read the ten commandments to us, and pat Robinson can tell us how we're all going to heel. Plus we'll all join hands and sing amazing grace.

[Ripley]

112. No, I think they should take it to the next level.

And have a "staged" gang rape in the middle of the field? As long as the women agree to get paid for it and do it voluntarily, right?

Sound groovy to you man?

[Democat]

120. Suggestive dancing and gang rape are the same?

Don't go to the beach or near a pool, you might have a nervous breakdown. :)

[SOS]

121. Pop singers are reduced

to lame theatrics because the music is utterly vacant.
Brittney, Madonna, Timberlake, Jackson, Simpson, etc should take some of their Pepsi or McDonalds money and hire some songwriters. The Jackson performance was like watching a 1990 rerun of the fly girls on "In Living Color". This techno, group dance, lip-sync, hot pants, crotch-grabbing schtick is worn out! Exposing a breast was necessary to the act since the rest of it was as stale as a month old bagel.

125. If Malcolm X were alive today...

...he would probably be furious with Ms. Jackson for being a party to the ugly spectacle of a horny white man ripping the bra off of a seductive black girl.

The whole routine appeared to be a subliminal racist slur against blacks by our white controlled entertainment empire and the fact that nobody noticed this is frightening.
