Julianne Hough's New Video Banned for being too Racy

Julianne Hough's  video for her latest single, 'Is That So Wrong,' has reportedly been deemed too steamy for Country Music Television (CMT). The video features the former 'Dancing With the Stars' beauty playfully meandering.

The video has also been pulled off You Tube and other internet sites, but a "Making of" clip gives us a peek to the making of the steamy video.  Then the actual video itself.

Here is the making of clip, it appears to be nothing worse than what you might see on any episode of "Dancing With the Stars."

CMT denies any ban has occurred, and the station told CNN that it isn't playing the video because of a snag in the contract negotiations.

And here's the actual video.  The video doesn't tell much of a story, unlike most country videos that seem to be an actual "mini movie".  It does feature Julianne dancing around in various states of undress and at the end a guy appears at her door.  Judge for yourself.  i know I'm not complaining.

Santa Fired for Telling a Risque Joke That Wasn't Even Risque

What a snow job!  This Santa was given the axe for telling a "risque" joke.  The joke is in the video, and it isn't even bad.  You hear worse on Glee.

This Santa worked for Macy's for over 20 years and it was one of his stock jokes he had told for years.

The story ends up with a happy ending, the Santa was rehired at another location and will end up making more money.

Wham's 'Last Christmas' Video

Each and every December we are beaten to death with holiday music.  Now, I'm not a Grinch, as I like the classics, "White Christmas", "Feliz Navidad", and "Jingle Bell Rock."  It's the newer Christmas tunes that take me a little longer to get used to.

It's only December 7, and I think I've already heard Wham's "Last Christmas" exactly 112 times, just this year.  This song gets in your head and you can't get it out, the song kind of grows on you.

What I didn't know is there is a video to accompany the song.  And of course it lives on You Tube.  This is actually the extended version of the song, it's cut down a bit for radio play. 

Listen to it, I dare you.  You'll be hearing it in your sleep.

What Was Going On With Donald Trump's Hair?

Tucked away safely in the Craft's owners box, Donald Trump thought he was protected from the elements. 

He was fine, but that alien lifeform that is his hair almost was the play of the year.

Wind gusts lifted it, but it didn't move out of place.  Just watch the video and imagine what could've been.

'Dandy' Don Meredith Passes Away

 

Don Meredith, the Dallas Cowboys quarterback and Monday Night Football broadcaster, died Sunday evening in Santa Fe, N.M. He was 72.

Meredith was the original Dallas Cowboy, signing a personal services contract on Nov. 28, 1959, two months before the franchise officially gained admittance into the NFL.

Meredith was a two-time All-American at SMU and played for the Cowboys from 1960 to 1968. He led the Cowboys to the 1966 and 1967 NFL title games, both defeats to the Green Bay Packers,  but he abruptly retired from pro football at age 31.

Meredith went on to join ABC's Monday Night Football team.  Viewers waited for Meredith to sing "The Party's Over" to viewers when he determined that the game was out of reach.

His career with the Cowboys came after Meredith had been a two-time All-America quarterback at SMU. He chose the Mustangs after narrowly opting to turn down Bear Bryant's scholarship offer to attend Texas A&M.
