*Definitely* was pre-planned to some degree (though I don't think CBS control room / cameramen knew about it), and these idiots running around now saying it was a "malfunction" are insulting.

Timberlake and Janet knew full and well what was happening at the bare minimum.

Oh, and by the way, the piercing thing Janet had is supposedly called a "medallion" -- it wasn't a "pastie" thing covering her.

Somebody's going to get busted for violating FCC standards, and the "accident" claim ain't gonna hold. Gotta love folk like Timberlake who think they can just lie and sucker 90 million people or so. Right.

Not cool for a program that a lot indeed watch with younger kids and stuff. I shudder at the kids on playgrounds emulating what they've seen this next week and beyond.

It WAS staged, because it was just as JT sang "Gonna have you nekkid by the end of this song", the fireworks went off, she has a new single, the cameraman knew exactly where to longshot etc.

But who cares? If she has to do this promote her new single (out today - crazy coincidence) then she must have little faith in her singing and resort to other means to sell.

It *was* premeditated.

MTV promised "shocking moments" in Janet's performance in advance. She didn't do anything else "shocking":

Cameras cut away and so on because the CBS cameramen and control room weren't informed in advance. Given they have sensitivities to FCC regulations and such, a camera wouldn't have even been on her had they known in advance.

Costume malfunction my a**, though, Mr. Timberlake. SHENANIGANS!!! :rofl:

I think its like the Britney\Madonna kiss. They just wanted to get the spot light and sell some stuff.

Exactly. This is precisely what MTV, Janet, Justin...everyone involved wanted to happen: publicity and gossip.

I, for one, think CBS is the only party that's going to get screwed in this. Yeah, MTV did the halftime show, but CBS is responsible for what is shown. Unfortunately, MTV showed their true colors tonight by using CBS as a stage for their own personal gain.

One thing I did find kind of confusing, though: in the pictures AFTER it happened, Janet looks ****ed. There is a shot on MSN where she is evil-eyeing Justin while trying to cover herself up. And after looking at the pictures closely, I think the intention was for him to rip off the black part of the outfit to reveal a red bra or something. Look at the picture and you can see the red part at the top. It's obvious it was made to come off because it is button-on, but I think it was only supposed to take off the top layer.

Either way, it's a shame what this society has come to. And MTV is clearly showing it's desperation with Britney, and now this. I am almost afraid to see what the next "incident" is going to be. These people are immature and it's painfully obvious that their music talents suck that they have to resort to theatrics.

I think next year for halftime they should just have a Battle of the Bands. Get the marching bands from schools like Central Florida, Grambling, Southern, etc. and let them go at it. It would be far more entertaining and way better use of talent than these other clowns.

Look at the 3rd pic up above. The one on the right, where Justin is holding the piece of her clothing. You can CLEARLY see the red "bra" is only lace that is attached to the top of the black piece. ONly about 1-2 inches thick. YOu can tell its the BACK of the black piece b/c you can see the snaps. There was NOTHING underneath tha tbra piece, nor was there meant to be.

Its sad, but almost expected. THis is the way the world is going. THis is what we expect from MTV. THis is what we exspect from celebreties. Not only is it a sad self-promotion, but I think its in REALLY poor taste given everythign thats going on with her brother.

I am glad to see so many Neo-Winians disgusted by the performance!

yea but NOT on national TV and in front of cameras sending the image to thousands of homes during a ""sporting"" event in front of children. Now go back to your porno channel and perv away and stop assuming the rest of the world holds or should hold the same pathetic values you have.

    • You can't remove Safari though. Or almost any other bundled app for that matter, and pretty much all of them are useless to me (and there are is a heap of them compared to Windows). I'll much rather take Edge than Safari, at least it can be highly customized vs. Safari. I'll take a PC with ten Edges over a Mac any day though as I can't stand all the limitation and painfully frustrationg restriction that make me dislike their stuff with a burning passion, iOS included (especially iOS).
    • DVD only? What kind of self-respecting optical disk backup/ripping tool doesn't support Blu-ray these days? I burned all my DVDs like 15+ years ago...

    • Glow 26.9 by Razvan Serea Glow provides detailed reporting on every hardware component in your computer, saving you valuable time typically spent searching for CPU, motherboard, RAM, graphics card, and other stats. With Glow, all the information is conveniently presented in one clean interface, allowing you to easily access and review the comprehensive hardware details of your system. Glow provides detailed information on various system aspects, including OS, motherboard, processor, memory, graphics card, storage, network, battery, drivers, and services. The well-organized format ensures easy access to the required information. You can export all the gathered data to a plain text file, facilitating sharing with others for troubleshooting purposes. No installation needed. Just decompress the archive, launch the executable, and access computer-related information. Glow runs on Windows 11 and Windows 10 64-bit versions. Glow 26.9 changelog: New Features The processor hardware detection engine has been significantly enhanced beyond traditional Intel and AMD architectures. Native support is now available for modern platforms such as Apple Silicon (M-Series) and the newly introduced NVIDIA Spark. In addition, all ARM-based processors can now be accurately distinguished between ARM32 and ARM64 architectures, providing precise hardware reporting. This marks a major milestone for Glow's hardware detection capabilities. The RAM manufacturer identification algorithm has been expanded. JEDEC vendor codes for popular brands such as Patriot, PNY, Team Group, GeIL, Lexar (Longsys), and Asgard/Gloway have been integrated into the database. This significantly reduces the likelihood of incorrect or "Unknown Manufacturer" results and improves overall hardware detection accuracy. New Public IP Address and Internet Service Provider (ISP) features have been added to the Network section. To ensure reliability, this information is retrieved from the trusted service ipwho.is. When Hiding Mode is enabled, no requests are sent and these features remain hidden, as they may expose sensitive information. The search engine used in the Installed Drivers, Installed Services, and Installed Applications sections has been enhanced. You can now perform more flexible and accurate searches using initials, partial matches, and loosely arranged character sequences. The TS Preloader loading bar has been rebuilt using our modern TS Custom Controls graphics library, developed entirely in-house. As a result of this infrastructure upgrade, the loading bar now features smooth rendering and rounded corners that align with the visual style of Windows 11. [TS Updater] A new validation algorithm has been added to check whether the target application is currently running before the update process begins. Bug Fixes Resolved a condition that could prevent TS Preloader from shutting down safely during rare application crash scenarios. Fixed a text alignment issue in the Network section affecting the display of DNS addresses. Alignment is now rendered correctly. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue that could prevent the updated application's executable "*.exe" file from being located after the update process. [TS Updater] Fixed a bug that could leave outdated "*.sha256" files in the application directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed a rare issue that could cause subfolders to be moved into the root directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue during the first launch that could cause flickering and a temporary white window appearance due to Windows Defender interactions. Changes A small improvement has been made to the internet connectivity detection algorithm. Connectivity checks are now performed in the background with minimal impact on the user interface thread. The keyboard shortcuts in the top menu have been reorganized and simplified to provide a consistent experience across all Türkaysoft applications and to avoid potential conflicts with standard Windows shortcuts. The TS Preloader splash image has been updated with a Türkiye-themed stadium design to celebrate Türkiye's qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup—its first appearance in 24 years. Congratulations, Türkiye! The TS Custom Controls module has been updated to version 26.6, delivering improved stability and a more polished visual appearance. [TS Updater] The application icon has been redesigned to provide a more modern and refined look. Note: Always unzip the program before using it. Otherwise you may get an error.
