And NOT because my ass will never look like that either!
I saw an Ellen spoof this morning, and since I'd heard reference to the video a few times, I decided to google it. After watching about 30 seconds, I got really depressed. At about a minute, I had to turn it off. 1) she took a fun song from my youth (even if it meant the same thing, it wasn't nearly as hard-core) and turned it into a nasty, dirty experience. 2) I am so sad I'm going to have to shield my son from such graphic crap music and videos. Friday Night Videos and early MTV bring back great memories for both me and my husband. Is this played on MTV without any warnings or ratings? 3) what is this slippery slope (made slippery by coconut milk made to look like cum, I might add) that our world is on? Were our grandparents as appalled by Elvis' hips as I am by all this twerking stuff? 4) ok, I am a little sad my ass will never look juicy. Call me grandma I guess, but I am really depressed and disturbed. (As evidenced by me posting about it 5 hours after watching...) |

Well, MTV hasn't played videos in 20+ years.
It's horrific and depressing and easily accessible to eyes of all ages. |

| Its like a prostitute advertizing. If you see it with that perspective you can see the artistic merit. I mean Nicky Minaj has given a great performance as a crude hooker who can't sing, and who is offering anal sex! I find it very realistic. She achieved what she wanted to portray. |

I mean wow. I'm sure my 15yr old has seen it, and that's embarrassing.
I feel like I lecture her constantly that this stuff isn't real life and that I feel badly for her that she's being exposed to this stuff way before she's ready. |

Actually, the video is a perfect remake.
The both used fruit on a mixing table to illustrate what they were talking about. They both had female dancers shaking their bodies and slapping butts. They were both sexually explicit. They were both saying that black men like to have sex women with curves. They were both pushing the envelope during the time of release. I think we are just getting old. Train up a child, OP. Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it. |

Not the OP, but what does this even mean? I just saw the video and am HORRIFIED. Much too graphic. Did I mishear or does she say something like "I let him hit it because he slings cocaine" Gross. |
