Sexy pop videos ‘too hot’ for kids, believes Brit government

Post image for Sexy pop videos ‘too hot’ for kids, believes Brit government

Music industry chiefs are said to be fuming over British Government’s plan to ban sexy pop videos featuring stars like Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue, Shakira, Sugababes and The Saturdays.

They fear the move could wreck sales of CDs and downloads as well as wipe out a string of TV music channels such as MTV and VH1.

Under the proposals, such videos will only appear after the 9pm watershed.

The move comes after an official report by a top psychologist warned that the videos show women as “decorative objects” and turn girls on to sex too young.

One of the worst offenders is said to be Spears’ Baby One More time vid, in which she dressed as a sexy schoolgirl.

Dr Linda Papadopoulos, who produced the report for the Home Office, said little girls are being drip-fed damaging images from music videos and channels which encourage them to see themselves as sex toys under male control.

“There is a tendency to view women as objects and accept aggressive attitudes and behaviour,” the Daily Star quoted her as saying.

“The images lend credence to the idea that women are there to be used,” she said.

But Paul Nicholas, 45, who runs an independent music label, does not agree.

“It’s crazy. The vids are just a bit of fun. They are great entertainment and help boost the economy,” he stated.

The report also recommended that lads’ mags should not be sold to anyone under 15.

“Changing attitudes will take time but it is essential if we are going to stop the sexualisation that leads to violence against girls,” Home Secretary Alan Johnson added

UK road to be named Lara Croft Way!

A new road in Derby, England, is set to be called the Lara Croft Way following a public vote.

As many as 89 per cent were said to have cast their votes in favour of the computer game and movie character Lara Croft, played by the actress Angelina Jolie in the Tomb Raider films.

“The vote really captured the imagination of people from across the world and, despite my lack of gaming knowledge, I accept that a majority of 89 per cent for Lara Croft is too overwhelming to ignore,” The BBC quoted Councillor Lucy Care, cabinet member for planning and transportation, as saying.

“She was created in Derby and deserves to stand alongside some of the more traditional icons of the city.

“The vote for Mercian Way is also testimony to the passionate local support shown for the servicemen and women serving right now so I”m pleased that there will be a lasting legacy to honour them in what will be the biggest change to Derby’’s inner road network in 30 years,” Care added.

Post image for Johnny Depp likes wearing skirts!

Johnny Depp has confessed that he loved wearing a kilt while playing the role of the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton’’s new movie ”Alice in Wonderland”.

In the film, the hunky star portrays the Mad Hatter with a Scottish accent, and says he particularly enjoyed one scene where he got to wear a kilt, the national dress of Scotland.

He said: “The Scottish accent was something I did mess around with on ”Finding Neverland”.

“That was a bit more Aberdeen, and Tim Burton and I talked about the Hatter being made up of different people and going to extremes, go dark and dangerous with the Scottish accent. I hope I arrived there. And I like wearing skirts too!”

Fans slam John Lennon car commercial

john lenon 250x300  Fans slam John Lennon car commercial John Lennon’s widow Yoko One has attracted the ire of the late Beatle’s fans for allowing his image to be used in a car advert.

Fans are furious by video of the late Lennon dubbed with an actor’s words put in his mouth.

In part of message “Lennon” says: “Do something of your own. Start something new. Live your life now.”

Many have appealed for a boycott of Citroën cars and started a Facebook campaign to get the commercial banned.

“This is totally out of order and will be depressing millions of Lennon fans,” the Daily Star quoted Bill Harry, founder of the Mersey Beat newspaper in Liverpool, as saying.

Some fans have even posted messages on Yoko’s Twitter page saying: “Shame on you.”

“No-one can believe John Lennon would ever have agreed for his image to be used to advertise a car. It is cheapening his memory and there is a lot of anger,” Liverpool Beatles tourist guide Phil Coppell said.

Citroën have, however, defended the advert by saying Yoko, 77, and the Lennon estate permitted them to make the advert.
