"Telephone" Music Video Censored!


Check out the clean version for Lady GaGa and Beyoncé's "Telephone" music video. MTV has also decided to ban the music video from their network. Kinda lame.

What WERE the main differences? I mean, I know the beginning cell scene, and the high pitched censor noise was more frequent, but really, what? When I found this out, I got annoyed, because there are lots of other videos which have nudity(Womanizer, So What, Lovegame, and Hey Baby[by No Doubt], and these are the ones that come to mind from everyday pop songs), and Lily Allen has a song with the F word in the title, and Avril Lavigne's album was called, well you get the point. Lots of others have done equally bad. I don't want to listen to some random versions, because I want the 'official' one to be getting my views counted, and I don't feel like making a Youtube account and lying, saying I'm older than 18 just to watch 1 video. :\

And not to mention Youtube gets rid of videos left and right for copyright infringement, yet the site has other things to worry about.

It wasn't banned from MTV that was just a rumor. Google it, the article is on AOL actually. It premiered on MTV on friday.

I certainly wouldn't want my 12 year old watching Gaga shoving her cooch into the camera at 4:30 while s/he's working on his/her homework. The censored version is still pretty outrageous.

It has nothing to do with being "closed minded," which itself demonstrates a certain intolerance, it's about keeping things reasonable for the audience at large.

Hey! Killing your boyfriend? Such a clever idea; you'll both end up in that prison with all your lesbians sadomasochists lovers. No more Beyonce and Lady Gaga! Let's celebrate!
