Your Thoughts on the Katy Petty Video

Do you think it was right for them to pull the Katy Perry segment from airing?

Loading Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes. That's not good for kids.

thelordsbeauty says:

Yes! Her chest is popping out!

grandparent says:

yes. This was out of character for Elmo.

jenna says:

although I personally didn't think the outfit was that bad...i don't know why it got taped like that to begin with. Don't the producers or directors have some type of wardrobe approval process?

Pearl says:

(Before you read this, my choice is in the middle)...I find that the video is really adorable, but they shouldn't let Katy where a dress like that. What ever happened to a cute t-shirt and jeans? She could have carried that dress but not wear it if they really wanted it part of the video. Plus, Katy is a little grown-up to be associated with Sesame Street. Especially when a song with a curse in it is used.

Skeeeeeetz says:

She's should have thought enough to wear something a little more appropriate. But, then again, she is probably getting more attention for it now than she ever would have. Maybe a smart move...

No. I see nothing wrong with it.

Rocket74 says:

There's nothing wrong with the video. People get worked up over nothing these days.

Moojoo says:

I don't see anything really wrong with it, but I don't think that dress is really in the spirit of Sesame Street. It looks more like a spoof video than something that would actually be on the show.

MamaInTheCity says:

My son watches this video over and over on youtube, and I'm perfectly OK with it. Women have breast - kids know that. It's not like she was jiggling them in Elmo's face. If Sesame street didn't like her wardrobe, then they should of had her change clothes before spending the time to shoot the video.

fanfreluche says:

Nothing wrong with it at all. Not even sure what was the fuss about. Maybe because I am French-Canadian and don't get my panties in a knot about a little bit of skin :)

Melidy says:

no it wasnt, it was a fun video, not a porno
