i'm sure kids see worse at their local malls.

Thats a bunch of BS! Tinkerbell wears the same costume and always has yet no one complains about her.

I didnt anything wrong . people over react too much.I have a 3 yr old and he only looks at elmo not perry .

I agree, kids today can see a lot worse barely leaving their own neighborhoods, the mall, or playing at their local park. If Sesame Street is so worried about how she is dressed then why did they choose Katy Perry in the first place. It's not like her music videos were any less risque.

Most kids see nothing but boobs for the first year of their life anyway. If anything, they'll look at Katy Perry and think "lunch time." People were definitely over-reacting.

The age group this targets is going to be looking at the characters or moving to the beat not looking at clevage. I haev 4 kids 3 are too old for sesame street but I would allow them to see this. In addition, why ban her....alter the dress if it offends anyone. I think in general the segment was adorable.

I find it hard to believe that anyone could possibly find this an issue - I'd have thought they'd have done better to can the song and not the singer....still, we can't have those precious little urchins exposed to anything they might not be able to see on any public beach, now can we?

A sad reflection of the fact that those that complain are always vastly outnumbered by those who do not - and yet the complainers ALWAYS seem to prevail.

I think is so...stupid xD. For 1. Why start shooting AND air it with her boobs showing if it was going to be such a problem. 2. Why not suggest she change into something that covers her more. 3. Her videos are anything but child friendly. They should've seen this coming knowing she would wear something like this. Lastly like above comments. Boobs are everywhere people. There is no avoiding. I'm sure kids wouldn't watch this and go "OOOOH BOOBIES" These parents need to take a major chill pill. xD

Has everyone forgot why jim henson created sesame street? Its meant to be for kids and their parents! Henson has always had adult undertones to his shows! People need to lighten up! You shelter your child and he/she will be screwed in the long run! But then again we could always bring back the christion fanatic cults who put poison in the punch and make you drink it! They never aloud children too watch sesame street either
