A raunchy commercial for Britney Spears's smellifluous perfume, Curious, is not allowed to be shown on UK TV before 7:30 P.M. They won't show it in Europe? Europe, the home of televised full-frontal? What?
Britain's Broadcast Advertising Clearance Centre has branded the commercial (or "advert", as those nutty Brits say) "too hot for TV!!!" and relegated it for evening play only. Does it have explicit sex? Naked boobies? Strategically placed blobs of shaving cream? Well, according to the folks at Adrants, "The spot captures Britney in the throes of a fantasy with a guy in the next hotel room, complete with all the sexual imagery you'd expect; lips, fingers, blooming flowers, fingernails clawing skin, fingers against a rain soaked window, a pair of dolls kissing, clenched hands, bulls in a ring, crashing waves, writhing bodies and, finally, open mouth glee." So it was restricted due to a bunch of lousy visual metaphors? What a gyp!
