Sweden's Got Talent... and naked men!

[thistlechaser]

Video is probably NWS. Naked manbutts are seen, but there's also a lot of other suggestive stuff. However, as it was shown on TV, there's no full frontal nudity (kinda!).

Something like this would never fly on America's Got Talent, which is too bad because it's a fun dance routine:

Link!

Must have taken them a while to get the timing down!

That was cute. X)

It really was!

Well, that made my morning. :)

And of course it makes for an interesting comparison with the U.S. ... Sweden recognizes that skit for the innocent fun that it is, while America gets all worked up over a far-less-revealing K-Mart ad. :/

Yep, it made my evening! :D

And yeah. I can only imagine how some of the groups here would froth over something like this. It's depressing.

Haha, awesome.

Isn't it? I want to watch it again, but alas I'm at work.

That was great silly fun. Reminds me of the old fan dance routines-- where what you almost see is the point of the thing...

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Almost seeing is more exciting than seeing everything. Now and again one of the plates/disks they use slips a little low, which makes it all the more fun.

Thank you for making my day!! We had a group of girls do a fan dance on a talent show here a few years back, I looked but it's not on YouTube, I was going to post a link, it was lots of fun.

Why wouldn't it fly on American TV, because of the nudity?

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

The nudity and because showing anything that even just hints at being gay would have tons of religious groups protesting the show and any company that advertises on it. Naked men on stage would send them into a froth, let alone the first part where they were thrusting and singing about dropping soap. It's gotten really bad about that here.

I never thought of that, here it would just have everyone falling about laughing.

A couple of friends have posted that Joe Boxer advert for Kmart on their journals which I think is brilliant, I suppose that has probably been disapproved of in certain quarters of the populace?

Unfortunately yep. I really enjoyed the commercial as well though!
