A scene singer Katy Perry shot for television series Sesame Street has been scrapped after parents complained that her cleavage was inappropriate for the children's show.
A scene singer Katy Perry shot for television series Sesame Street has been scrapped after parents complained that her cleavage was inappropriate for the children's show.
Perry, 25, had sung a cleaned-up version of her song Hot N Cold with Elmo, and it was supposed to air on New Year's Eve.
But the video, which was viewed on YouTube by nearly a million people, started receiving complains from parents, with one even saying: "Dude My Son Saw This And Got A Boner Wtttttttttf".
Producers have decided not to air the song, after more parents commented.
"You can practically see her t*ts. That's some wonderful children's programming," one commented. Another said "they're gonna have to rename it cleavage avenue." While another said "my kid wants milk now."
Perry was not actually bare-chested as her front was covered with a flesh-coloured mesh that went all the way to her neck.
