The Grammys’ List of Banned Body Parts — What’s Real and What’s Not?

NO NUDES IS GOOD NUDES DEPT.

Yesterday, a memo from CBS Standards and Practices was leaked to the public. In it, the network advised performers on this Sunday’s Grammys that certain wardrobe choices would be...unacceptable.

MAD’s Updated Rihanna Album Cover

JUST DUET DEPT.

Remember in 2009 when Chris Brown viciously beat his girlfriend Rihanna into a bloody pulp? You do? Well then, you should probably tell Rihanna — because it seems like she’s forgotten all about it. How else can you explain the fact that after being hospitalized by Brown, she’s going clubbing with him, dueting with him on her new album and spending Thanksgiving with him?
