Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

Katy Perry was pulled from sesame street after parents complained that her dress beared too much cleavage!!! She was singing a child-friendly version of "hot N cold" with Elmo.

Im not trying to be the moral police, but have parents paid attention to the Disney Channel sluts?? Also even in cartoon form the Disney Princesses show more cleavage than Katy Perry.

Miley Cyrus pole dances and strips, Demi Lovato allegedly makes a sex tape, and Vanessa Hudgens sends nude photos to friends. Is there not something in the water over there???

Come on people...Katy Perry was tame by other standards....

Yeah. I know society now sexualizes everything, but you can't tell me the producers of those shows dont try and sex up the girls just a little bit.

Miley was dressing skanky long before she ever started taking nude pictures or whatever. Google these disney princesses if people dont believe me...

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

So, is your point that Katy Perry shouldn't have been pulled, or that hollywood/disney/sesame street et al should be more proactive in monitoring what images are put in front of the kids? Just curious because your posts seem to suggest you believe both those at the same time.

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

I think people need to stop bitching about stuff that doesn't need to be bitched about.

I think Katy Perry shouldn't have been pulled, and the fact that she got backlash when there is no backlash against the other people i mentioned is kind of like a double standard.

Im complaining because its like hey lets protect your kids from EVERYTHING, and when they grow up sheltered and have no resistance to drugs/alcohol or promiscuous sex, the same people are crying why something isnt done. Katy Perry was wearing a freaking green dress, it was not promiscuous, or revealing or anything...

She had on more clothes than anybody on the disney channel....

Why would Sesame Street invite a whore on the show anyways? They knew what they were getting.

As a father of a 2-YO, I don't want her on SS either.

I did enjoy when the First Lady was on though:

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

You gotta remember, this is Sesame Street. Purely for little kids. While we, as adults, may think what Katy Perry was wearing was tame for us, we have to decide what we are going to expose our little children to. What is tame for us might not be so tame for the children. Don't get me wrong, I love looking at Katy Perry (California Gurls video with her naked on the cloud..yum yum!) But, I wouldn't want her on a children's show showing cleavage or wearing a very short skirt. I just think it is inappropriate for Sesame Street.

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

I guess you have to decide if this is appropriate for a kids show. She is showing cleavage, but probably nothing you haven't seen at a wedding.

My conservative side says the dress is probably just a tad bit too revealing for Sesame Street, but not extremely inappropriate.

At least she didn't wear this:

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

Yeah, that's extreme for Sesame Street.

Weddings aren't planned for kids. Bartenders don't serve juiceboxes and DJs don't play Disney music...it's an adult venue. Sometimes, kids are not even invited.

Had not seen the outfit before, but that has no place on a childrens' show.

With that said, the producers had to have expected this kind of attention whorage from her. (new word alert!)

Apparently you don't watch the Disney channel. Stop making claims that are completely absurd. If you want to claim that Milet Cyrus wears slutty clothes in general go for it. If you want to claim she wears them on Disney then you don't know what you are talking about. I have kids. I watch that stuff every day. There is nothing even remotely slutty about the stuff they wear on that channel.

How about the dozens of times woman have been on the show wearing bathing suits? I would argue her clothes, to a four year old, are completely meaningless. Now if Sesame Street was a show for 12 year-olds maybe I'd feel different. For the most part I agree with Earth...find something more important to complain about.

This K. Perry picture has been altered I watched the clip and her dress where the cleavage is suppose to be was like skin color netting. Much like what a figure skater or Hooters girls wears on their legs.

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

I think this whole thing is pretty dumb.

#1, why book someone like this on a kids show when you know what she's all about?
#2, why not put some clothes on her and avoid all this stupid drama?
#3, I doubt little kids everwhere are ruined by seeing some half covered boobs.

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

Here is a better pic, is the silver tubing around her neck and arms i nthat area is all netting/stocking material.

#1 Ratings. Ratings = more $$$. Pretty simple.
#2 Agreed.
#3 Probably not, but then again, how much further are parents willing to loosen up in regards to what their 4 year olds watch on TV? Sesame Street should be, without question, a show that parents don't have to censor.

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

Sesame Street cares about ratings? It's still on PBS right?

Did you see what some of the parents said?

-- "You can practically see her t*ts. That's some wonderful children's programming."
-- "they're gonna have to rename it cleavage avenue"

These parents are more out of line than her damn clothing is. Just as someone said in the comments:

Absolutely yes! The show being on PBS doesn't mean there are no ratings involved. It has 122 Emmy Awards and had a huge ratings boost back in February 2010.

Re: Katy Perry pulled from Sesame Street
 

Ratings mean almost nothing to Sesame Street and PBS. Ratings only matter for ad-supported TV and customer-subscription TV. Unless SS was about to get shut down for a complete lack of interest they can't be even remotely mistaken for doing something for ratings. In fact doing something like this can be reasonably construed as bone-headed since they are supported by charitable funds which they put at serious risk by casting a questionable shadow over the content. In other words, nobody is sending more donations to PBS for being on the show but there are probably people who aren't sending in donations because of this. What they try to be is "relevant".

I think they did it to keep up with Yo Gaba Gaba, how routinely has on celebrities.

The Jack Black one being one of the best episodes.

I'm glad I have no idea what Yo Gaba Gaba is, though I'm sure some day I will know all too well.

2 to 4 yr old kids care about celebrities appearing on their shows? Hell I bet if you asked them who Katy Perry was none would even know. Most probably can't even say her name. Its for the dads.

Like some 2 or 3 yr old kid is going to see her and get his first woody. At their age this is a Woody.

WE LOVE YO GABBA GABBA. Muno the cyclops is awesome (you may know him from the Kia Super Bowl commercial)

Their celebrities, including Jack Black, are fully covered.

While their are Disney actresses who act like strippers...they do it on their own time, not on Disney shows. They're pretty innocent on that network, on the actual shows.

Sesame Street is for an even younger audience, and what Perry is wearing on these images is very inappropriate for that viewing audience and the show in general.

Glad they wised up and pulled it before airing it, but it's still a bit troubling they considered her in the first place.
