Re: Japanese Ban Britney Spears

Isn't Japan the country that has schoolgirl pinups of teens as per that
other thread?

A poster showing a naked and pregnant Britney Spears has been banned
from Tokyo, Japan's subway, because bosses deem it "too stimulating"
for young people. The picture, from the cover of the August edition of
Harper's Bazaar magazine, shows the singer naked, but protecting her
modesty by covering her breasts with her arms and crossing her legs at
the knee. The snap will appear in the magazine's Japanese edition in
October, and a large advertising campaign across the country was
planned. But Tokyo Metro bosses have ruled the picture too rude and a
threat to the nation's young. An official says, "We thought some of
our customers would find it to be overly stimulating." The poster will
go on show, but censored below Spears' elbow, with a statement that
reads, "We apologize for hiding part of a beautiful image of a
mother-to-be."
