I remember that video was absolutely scandalous at the time. Well, as a teenager I didn't get the fuss, but I remember the Catholic church being up in arms about it.Remember Madonna and Black Jesus? That went down a treat.
I think Like A Prayer had a burning a crucifix too. Sam Smith is a beginnerI remember that video was absolutely scandalous at the time. Well, as a teenager I didn't get the fuss, but I remember the Catholic church being up in arms about it.
A few years ago I was explaining to my kids how 'Relax' got banned from Radio 1 etc, they thought that was hilarious.
Which is a laugh considering if he did exist he would definitely not have been white!Remember Madonna and Black Jesus? That went down a treat.
I know!!Which is a laugh considering if he did exist he would definitely not have been white!
Or Duran Duran's 'Girls on FIlm', their first greatest hits video was an 18 certificate due to that video!I know!!
I remember I bought Madonna's Sex book too. That was very daring back in the day.
Oh lord don’t tell the liberal Christian radicals in the Deep South of the USA that! Some live near me and they have a full on life size portait of Jesus (white of course) on their garage doors. Also have a “gun owner and proud” sticker on their truck. Safe to say I huddle my ass past that house double time. They’ll think I’m a blasphemer with my spiritualist waysWhich is a laugh considering if he did exist he would definitely not have been white!
The only thing dirty about that video was the mudOr Duran Duran's 'Girls on FIlm', their first greatest hits video was an 18 certificate due to that video!
Ha! I remember the hysteria.I know!!

Yes, he was shagging Madonna at the time.---

Harry doesn't need to do videos like this, maybe Sam feels like they have to to sell records... I dunno. Just all feels a bit desperate to me. I don't even think it's their size that's the issue, they just can't pull it off with aplomb like say Rihanna or Madgeit’s a little from column a, a little from column b for me. i’m no sam fan but i do think this whole victorian freak show “eeeewwww look at it” reaction whenever there’s so much of a photograph of them is getting ott. i agree that the watersports in the video is a bit much while i simultaneously agree that the reaction wouldn’t be soif harry styles was doing it.
i see the rihanna comparison below but i think the closest she ever came to even similar was the s&m video, which looks so tame now
i think that’s fair. there is something awkward about how sam moves in comparison to someone like olly alexander (if we’re keeping a similar vibe) who would probably feel and look very comfortable in a video like this and sell the whole thing more. piss aside obviouslyHarry doesn't need to do videos like this, maybe Sam feels like they have to to sell records...

Jesus did exist. He is a documented figure. Christians just give him a particular significance.Which is a laugh considering if he did exist he would definitely not have been white!
It’s a very odd story. She’s a great actress, so I do feel sorry for her. And it’s not as though SHE broke any of the rules.i wonder if this will actually change anything. i do feel for her as she’s apparently genuinely good in the role and this all appears to be her agent’s doing but, still. interesting
Andrea Riseborough: Oscar nomination to be reviewed by Academy
The Academy will review Andrea Riseborough's nomination amid discussions about her campaign.www.bbc.co.uk
i feel sorry for her too. there’s absolutely no evidence that she herself participated in the rule breaking but she’s the one who’s going to carry the backlash of it.It’s a very odd story. She’s a great actress, so I do feel sorry for her. And it’s not as though SHE broke any of the rules.
However, the Academy claiming that they wanted to conduct the awards in a “fair and ethical manner” - come on now. This is the same organisation that gave an Oscar to Polanski. And have they already forgotten how Weinsteins “girls” got theirs?
Hang on to it. My older brother received it as a present in the early 90s, and it is in perfect condition still, with that foil wrapping and everything. Will be worth a few quid when she croaks, which at the rate she’s going, is probably any day now...I know!!
