Yesterday we sought diversion from the madness of May Day by admiring the dancing skills of swimsuit model Kate Upton, who demonstrated the complicated "Cat Daddy" dance for photographer Terry Richardson's video camera. It kept us off the streets, okay? But apparently Upton's innocent gyrating was too much for YouTube, which went all Footloose and removed the video for violating the site's "policy on nudity or sexual content." Enter Vimeo, to remind us all that there's still some things Google doesn't own, such as a free-spirited young artist's passion for interpretive dance:
Here's The Kate Upton Dancing Video That Was Too Hot For YouTube (Click Or We Kill A Puppy)
Watch Kate Upton Do Cat Daddy Dance In A Bikini For Terry Richardson, Page Views
We have a big flatscreen at Gothamist HQ that frequently tells us what topics are trending in NYC, letting us stay abreast of such issues as #HoodCerealNames, and Maxwell Drew. It is because of this valuable news-gathering tool that we discovered the video below of Kate Upton dancing in a bikini for photographer Terry Richardson, and the good of humanity. Her top stays on (barely) so we're comfortable calling this Semi-SFW. (Ideally, you work alone at home in a darkened soundproof man cave, wearing a bib.)
Lady Gaga To Steal Giant Slide's Thunder At The New Museum
Lady Gaga and Terry Richardson's highly anticipated, "stunning, provocative and coveted" photo book LADY GAGA x TERRY RICHARDSON (capitalization theirs) is finally here, and to celebrate, the duo will be causing a serious scene at the New Museum on November 22nd.
Lady Gaga And Terry Richardson To Put Out "Most Coveted" Book
Remember that time Lady Gaga may have touched herself in front of a small boy? Unsurprisingly Terry Richardson was involved, and now the two are coming out with a book together, which, according to Publishers Weekly, "will showcase over 350 photographs taken during the 10 month period in which Richardson followed Lady Gaga and had complete access to her everyday life.”
Lady Gaga Touched Herself and A Little Boy During Photoshoot
Well... this is a little more interesting, and a lot more disturbing, than that video of Macca dancing at her concert. Recently Lady Gaga did a photoshoot with Terry Richardson, during which she was topless and touching herself, as you can see in the video below. Problem is, this sort of adult behavior shouldn't be paired up with a toddler... and it was. If this behind-the-scenes video featured other (king of) pop stars, there would be problems. So far, Gaga's just got Fox News going after her, wondering if she went too far, and asking, "what is the little boy doing in the made-for-adults shoot?"
Gossip Girl Does Rolling Stone
The new cover girls of Rolling Stone are Gossip Girls Blake Lively and Leighton Meester sharing an ice cream. And before you think, "Is this cover shot as close Rolling Stone could get without demanding girl on girl?" you then find out the pair were photographed by Terry Richardson, once called "the magazine world's Marquis de Sade" by Hint Mag.
