The Super Bowl Mystery Performer Exposed!

Janet Jackson gets her Lil Kim on at the Super Bowl, with Justin Timberlake, alleged former paramour, ripping off one of her leather breast cups to expose a star shapped pastied right breast. Vivid Blurry has more photos and whatevs dubs CBS the "Tittany Network." CBS is apologizing, saying, "CBS deeply regrets the incident," while Justin says, "I am sorry that anyone was offended by the wardrobe malfunction during the halftime performance of the Super Bowl. It was not intentional and is regrettable." Gothamist knows Ms. Jackson is trying to be more gritty and sexual, given the A Clockwork Orange meets Cabaret style dancers, but it's not by total chance that the right cup of her outfit would be so pull-away and that she would have a pastie on her nipple. Or is it? At any rate, Janet's ploy to make people stop wondering "Where's Michael? Is he coming?" for a few minutes worked. Game on, Janet.

Oh, and apparently the New England Patriots won over North Carolina.

cbs should sell mtv. or just cancel all their programs. that would be funny.

after review in the replay booth: intentional exposure. 10 yard penalty. 1st down.

When you have MTV producing the halftime show, what can the NFL expect? CBS promised an exciting halftime show and we got it, for about three seconds.

grambo, gothamist, & gawker...I guess we know what the meme of the day is...

i've put up a short video on my page of the breast incident, too

Could they have been talking about this guy?

I am officially changing my name to Wardrobe Malfunction.

The wardrobe malfunction explanation has us hearing the Church Lady's response: "How conveeeenient."

Not sure how much I'm splitting hairs here - but it wasn't a pastie - it was a Nipple Shield a steel sun that slides over the nipple, and is held on by a barbell piercing...

One can only wonder what Janet's expression would have been if Justin had accidentally grabbed that and pulled.

Thank god CBS didn't air the MoveOn.org ad. Wouldn't want to offend anyone.

*ponders ways to incorporate "wardrobe malfunction" into everyday speech*

are you happy to see me, or is that just your wardrobe malfunctioning?

Boobies 1, NFL 0

Greatest Half Time Show . . . Ever
Even Without the boob shot, it was still a pretty good show. One Partially Exposed Breast....Big Deal. I've seen worse on HBO

Forget HBO, I've seen Worse on the FOX Network

if it was planned, it doesn't appear that anyone told Janet-- she looked pretty shocked at the moment it happened as well as in photos where she's covering up--just check out the expression on her face. She should have drop-kicked that little Timberlake.

is wardrobemalfunction.com taken yet?

wardrobe malfunction is 2004's twinkie defense.

Janet Jackson's new name is J. Titty

That ain't no pastie. That is a hardcore nipple piercing. Looks quite fierce!

Um, "Gothamist does not approve of anonymous blogging"* So why is Vivid Blurry's trash gracing your fine page? 'Toby' Right.

I paid absolutely no attention to that Superbowl, routs that they usually are. And I miss the thing people will either be talking the next 10 years, or 10 months about. (Depending on who tops that.)

What I don't get, are the prudes. Sports and sex sells. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a Maxim magazine. Breasts sell! (And more than just T-shirts, wakka wakka . . . )

What's a shame is that more people aren't saying, wow, check out Janet's breast! instead of turning it into a federal crime.

If I remember my 1970's history, there were a number of sports events where some people took it all off. The "streaker" phenomenon.

what about the after halftime show performer. That was funny.

What I don't understand is that Janet's breast was exposed and a federal crime is up against it, but television keeps replaying it over and over again.... sounds kind of dumb to me!

who cares what she had on her damn boobs. i think everyone should just get over it. i think the only people that it offended were the old skeezers who wishe they had breasts like that. i really didn't care for it. but what they don't know is that a lot of people didn't even get a chance to see it until they started showing over and over, and frame by frame on the news. now they just gave the people something to get upset over. but that's just my opinion

To be completely honest I believe the boob exposing incident was puposely done as a publicidy stunt. Janet just felt like she needed to do something to keep her name out there. I wouldn't put it past her, afterall, she is the sister of wacko jacko.

I think everybody should leave my girl janet alone. I'm tired of this. The press has been messin' with the jackson family way before I was even born and i'm tired of it as of right now. It was not janet's fault. The press is trying to make it seem like it was janet's fault but it wasn't. Now you can believe them if you want to. Because if you were a true janet jackson fan like I am you would be on janet's side. Do the right thing yall. Believe janet. Cause I do. I love you janet and forever more. Stay strong girl and don't let this get in your way, just move on.
