Duran Duran’s Girls on Film Uncensored
I decided it was time to fight the censors. Just because there are a few naked girls mud wrestling or pillow fighting with their tits out in a music video, I’m not sure it should be completely banned from television. If it wasn’t for MTV2 we may have never seen half of the sexier artisitc videos. Duran Duran were very successful in the 1980s and they caused a great deal of controversy with their video for the release of Girls on Film, especially as it involved a few sexual fetishes. I personally enjoy seeing nude women on my screen, but the video did also have an important mesage about the exploitation of models at the time, which didn’t reach a big audience because of the editing for mainstream TV.
