Ad Rejected Over Puppet Cleavage
'Lucy The Slut’s' Pink Cleavage Not Appropriate

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- A Colorado Springs billboard company has rejected an ad for a touring show because it shows a puppet's cleavage.

The puppet's name is Lucy the Slut. She's a pink Sesame Street-like puppet in the touring Broadway show “Avenue Q.” "Avenue Q" is a Tony-winning musical about twenty-something New Yorkers, both human and puppets, searching for life and love. The show addresses issues like sex, drinking, and surfing the Web for porn.

Lamar Advertising rejected the ad for bus shelters, according to the Colorado Springs Gazette newspaper. "We were in the process of putting it on the presses when one of the top execs saw it and said, ‘I don’t think it’s appropriate for the Colorado Springs market,’" according to Kristy Maple, marketing director for New Space Entertainment.

2. Stop Puppet Cleavage!
That's right Americans. We must stop the Puppet Cleavage Menace. Our kids will start making their poor innocent virginal Barbie dolls have sex with Avatar action figures... oh they do that already? Nevermind.

4. If puppet cleavage is so upsetting to them
imagine how real womens breasts would upset them! Perhaps there should be a city ordinance for all women to bind their breasts.

Next stop: a Purity or, if married, a Modesty Gown,
certainly not to be confused with a heathen, terrorist burka!
