CBS apologizes for halftime breast-baring
 

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 a flirtatious duet to end the halftime show, and at the song's finish, Timberlake reached across Jackson's leather gladiator outfit and pulled off the covering to her right breast.

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.

"I am sorry that anyone was offended by the wardrobe malfunction during the halftime performance of the Super Bowl," Timberlake said in a statement. "It was not intentional and is regrettable."

Wade said CBS officials attended rehearsals of the halftime show all week, "and there was no indication any such thing would happen. The moment did not conform to CBS' broadcast standards and we would like to apologize to anyone who was offended."

The Super Bowl halftime show, which also featured P. Diddy, Nelly and Kid Rock, was produced by MTV, CBS' corporate cousin in Viacom.

"We were extremely disappointed by elements of the MTV-produced halftime show," Joe Browne, NFL executive vice president, said. "They were totally inconsistent with assurances our office was given about the content of the show.

"It's unlikely that MTV will produce another Super Bowl halftime."

MTV issued a contrite statement, saying the incident was "unrehearsed, unplanned, completely unintentional."

Thats gotta hurt.

yeah right, there's no way in hell that was an accident.

Wardrobe malfunction...... ha ha

Good, mtv always has the stupidest halftime show... Though I didn't mind the boobie part :D

"Wardrobe malfunction"?? Yeah ok. Sounds like he could get a job as a Bush speech writer.

:1orglaugh

CBS is full of shit.

this is on DrudgeReport and I believe it 100%.

************************************************** **


Top CBS executives approved a musical skit where Janet Jackson would expose her breast during the MTV-produced Super Bowl half-time concert, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

"The decision to go forward went to the very top of the network," a well-placed source explained from New York.

Right :1orglaugh You have to admit their publicity stunt worked.People love controversy

Good, fuck MTV. If there is one thing in society that has created this gang, black wannabe mentality its MTV.

She just happened to have some silver shiny thingy covering her nipple UNDER her uniform?

Does she do that all the time? Just incase?

yea, she put he pastie on the end of her tit so she din't lose it right? that is what they want us to believe?
since the nipple wasn't exposed the FCC won't fine anyone.
funny how that accidental shit works?

damn tit is so full of silicone so it wasn't worth seeing anyway.

face it Janet Jackson
the good days are over, and so are you.

thank god, the super bowl already has enough corporate bullshit sponsorship already.

the CATILLAC super bowl, america has turned everything into advertisments.

interesting... :glugglug

actually, i'm pretty sure it's her nipple piercing. it's a type of jewellery.

Man i cant believe how America, land of the free blah blah can have so many issues over a partly covered breast.

If this would happen in Europe people would giggle a bit and move on.

Its pathetic.

Battuss could'nt agree more, we are a bunch of prudish mother fuckers here. CBS knew if was going to happen. Pasty in place, not a big surprise. Staged from the get go.

I Saw it, it happend too fast to enjoy!

I wanna see someone post the pics..

Lest anyone think anything is accidental when it comes to TV-

The quick wipe from the control truck was the dead giveaway- they knew it was coming to pull off the shot that fast....

Plus Janet and Justin DID date and this was MTV's answer to the Britney- Madonna "kiss"

Either way, CBS has some brass balls...I can see every third grader going to school talking about Janet Jackson's boobie....

lol damn, 1 titty is R rated.

Thinking about the morals our society has as a whole and the censorship you see imposed everywhere makes me want to vomit.

Aha.. yep.. nipple ring.

She's got a hell of a rack I'll give her that.

yeah nice boobie, i wanna see both of them

That was so obviously planned... Justin obviously meant to rip the cover off and was not shocked when it came off.

Janet is past her prime, she looked like shit I think.

I didn't watch the half time show because I didn't think there was going to be any titty action. So I watched this one instead :Graucho

It's suckable. :Graucho

Translation: Welldone, everyone talks about the show, you will do the halftime productions for the next 10 years.

thats one weird nipple ring....

Much better :glugglug

Looked like it was supposed to happen to me. I could tell from her outfit that something was going to come off.

Yeah, like he just reached over and ripped her tit off!!! Happens all the time !!!!!:1orglaugh

can you see the courts now, no more indecent exposure convictions for flashers, they can claim "wardrobe malfunction" now.

lol :1orglaugh

No way in hell that was a mistake. Look at the "bra" there is snaps on it - and watch the video - he reached up in the area and then moved his hand and pulled away and there was the breast - he meant to do that.

This is like the entire JFK thing all over again - one shooter or two?

sex sells. well done.

next time please rip off the other boobie cover too.

MTV sucks, but that titty exposure was awesome.

Stop smoking crack dude! Janet is #1. She's like the black version of MADONNA....HERE TO STAY!!
