Canada, the Juno Awards, and Boobies

Post by aerius »

I was reading through my Starweek TV guide when I came across an article on the Canadian Juno Music Awards. Of particular interest is this little excerpt.

(John) Brunton is the executive producer for the show, which is our verson of the Grammy Awards.
And Brunton isn't giving in to the five-second delay fever that has been sweeping TV since Janet Jackson's Breast-baring escapade at the Super Bowl.
"I don't think that Canadians are nearly as sensitive about some of the things that have been happening in the States," he says. "I don't think that we have that religious right-wing dictating what's on our airwaves. They're now putting live sporting events on tape delay - over a breast. It's ridiculous.
"If that had happened in Canada we sould have laughed and enjoyed it for what it was instead of turning it into the end of the world," he says.
"Quite honestly, I'd love something to happen that we're not planning, providing it's not like a cable punched into the wrong socket."
Don't you just wish you could live in Canada like I do? Boobies on TV for everyone! :D

Please don't remind me of the absurdity of that whole debacle.

Still good to hear everywhere else can have tit flashes and not make headline news. :D

Random boobies just might make the Junos watchable.

I was so hoping that Chantal (pictured below) would have an accident with her dress or something last year. Unfortunately it didn't happen. Maybe this year. But seriously, the Junos aren't that bad to me, they still get decent performers most of the time and the chicks are great to look at.

God, that was paranoid. They were barring performers that were once in the same band as someone in the incident from shows at one point (Wasn't JC Chasez barred from a performance after the incident?). Being over a few seconds of barely visible breast that viewers could have seen on a premium cable channel around the same time just makes it even more absurd.

Hmm..they have a pretty good lineup of performers this year..definitely a lot better than last year for sure. I was hoping they'd have a few more lesser known groups performing...ah well..
