Subject: Katy Perry too hot for Elmo???

Written By: lorac61469 on 09/23/10 at 7:38 am

Katy Perry recently taped a segment for Seasme Street where she sings a mild version of "Hot and Cold".  Producers decided to yank the video because of all the negative feedback on YouTube.  Apparently many parents feel that her dress is too revealing.

I've watched the video, I see nothing wrong with it.  Some of the comments made by parents were much more shocking than the video itself.

There are only two reasons to watch a Katy Perry performance, and they want to censor this video because of them? ???

I can understand the concern as her cleavage is present.  When I watched SS as a kid, the only melons you saw were at Mr. Hooper's store :D

As an adult you have concerns, my kids didn't even notice it.  They were too busy laughing at Elmo and singing along with the song.

Katy Perry adds a bit of sex appeal to Sesame Street, more attractive than Big Bird...

Lefty was quite dodgy for a kids show trying to sell 'O's to poor Ernie. How did Henson get away with it? Lol.

Don Music was dropped from Sesame Street when kids were hurting themselves copying the way he banged his head on the piano everytime he was frustrated with his song-writing attempts. A shame really. I love the conceit of a man, being helped by a frog, who's only way of completing a well-known song was to rewrite it backwards - very clever.  8)

What gets me is they censor Katy's cleavage, yet Big Bird walks around with no pants.

What the hell is going on at Sesame Street?  Maybe Bob and Maria are hiding secrets!  Where's the E! True Hollywood Story?

Y'know, I'd like to go all Rule 34 in this thread, but... no, just no.  Because it's too easy, that's why.  And while I'd be happy to wear an Elmo on one hand if, on the other hand, I could make Katy into my own personal Muppet, I've made peace with the fact that it's just not going to happen.  She digs chicks, though, so Big Bird's got a shot at it.

And now for something completely different, here's a safe-for-work depiction of Ms. Perry as one of the... well, here's this.

The net not only provides us with Rule 34, it provides us with things that are weirder than Rule 34.

I think it was because, despite the intention of portraying Lefty as a dodgy salesman, he resembles a drug-dealer.  ;D

I'm not googling that tonight.  (But as long as your images are turned off - it is a worthy direction for our further pop culture research.)

I just know that Bert is evil.  The photo that revived the old meme was a post-9/11 'shop.  But the 'shop made its way into a real demonstration, and then it went viral.  Both are on the linked page.  Gay or not, Bert's one of them turrists.

Which I didn't even see that until the news(mainly because I don't watch sports, not even the Super Bowl).

I remember Sesame Street was going to have the Red Hot Chili Peppers on the show before back in the 90s. They changed their minds though, mainly because of their music and some of their album covers(Thus feeling the band was too explicit for the show).

I think that Kate should get a guest spot in a Bazooka Joe cartoon strip.  They'd be able to sell alot of gum that way.

She could play the character of Bazooka Kate.  ;D
