Robin Thicke would have no problem saying, "he's bringing sexy back!" And really in a big way, too..
The 36 year old crooner has just released the video for his new song, "Blurred lines." As always, Thicke brings a laid-back and sultry R&B quality to his songs and videos, but this newest sampling has a quality that would make his father's "Jason Seaver" alter-ego wince.
The youthful Thicke's new video is unique because its actually been banned by Youtube for partial nudity and being too hot. But once you see it, you'll have to wonder what the hell were the censors of the web video service thinking..
Now, if you haven't seen it, please be aware that there is quite a bit of nudity in the video. However, its depiction is showcased in a very tongue and cheek behaviour. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.

| |  "What's Youtube thinking?," ponders Robin Even after viewing the video numerous times, there really seems no legitimate reason for this to be banned by Youtube. There are far more sexually overt and raunchy videos on the website where women are fully clothed. And despite being available in an educational context, videos of genital procedures, actual births and some fairly graphic video of sexual intercourse instruction is available on Youtube. Wasn't the internet somewhat designed to remove censorship and free information to world consumption? |
It seems even Robin and video co-star Pharrell had something to say about the issue. The duo took to Twitter to complain about the idiotic ban.
