Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears deemed too racy for French TV


Television bosses in France have deemed pop stars
Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears too racy for the small
screen, suggesting broadcasters should stop playing the
artists' music videos in the daytime.
Executives at the French media regulator CSA have
argued that some channels in the country were playing
Cyrus' Wrecking Ball and Spears' Work B**ch videos
during the day without any parental guidance warnings
preceding the clips.
In a statement released by CSA bosses on Thursday
(09Jan14), they brand Cyrus riding nude on a giant ball
"too sexually explicit", while Spears, who dons a whip
and bondage gear in her video, shows "a sadomachistic
universe representing women in a way that risks
shocking many viewers".
The watchdog executives are calling for French channels
to air the content after 10pm, as the footage is only
appropriate for adults.
