Donny Osmond was upset over Lady Gaga’s Telephone music video which features Beyonce. According to the MSNBC.com article:
The racy video — the full length of which features Gaga in a womens’ prison and sees the pop star kissing another female inmate, writhing about in a prison yard, dancing in a bikini and a bit of semi-nudity (her bum) — has angered the most recent “Dancing with the Stars” champ.
Truth is, I haven’t seen the video yet. I do know the song but haven’t listened to it that well. I do understand where Donny is coming from. He is a parent. Kids these days have access to the internet and in a flash, they can watch all these videos via Youtube. He just doesn’t want his kid to see a video of a very popular pop singer today doing racy things. Lady Gaga, whether she likes it or not, has a responsibility to be a little bit more discriminating when it comes to the videos she makes. She’s very popular and people of all ages like her! Sure, it’s the parents who are responsible for her kids. But with the technology today, kids can still just tune in to MTV and watch the video in a matter of minutes! And what do they get out of watching her video? Learn sex in a bad way!
We are all responsible, whether we like it or not. Especially to those who are way up there than the rest of us. Especially to those people we often see on TV. To whom so much is given, much is expected. Lady Gaga should remember that.
