Katy Perry on Sesame Street – Is She Hot or Cold with Elmo in this Video?

Katy Perry on Sesame Street has Venusity. Would you believe seeing Katy Perry on Sesame Street? Apparently we won't be seeing Katy Perry on Sesame Street anytime in the near future because her skit with Elmo was considered too hot.

The Children's Television Workshop might have chilled on the idea when Sesame Street producers decided not to air the Katy Perry Sesame Street segment on television. Katy Perry wears a shapely dress but it's not inappropriate. MTV reveals a statement from the producers about Katy Perry on Sesame Street:

In light of the feedback we’ve received on the Katy Perry music video which was released on YouTube only, we have decided we will not air the segment on the television broadcast of 'Sesame Street,' which is aimed at preschoolers. Katy Perry fans will still be able to view the video on YouTube.”

Honestly, I think there have been plenty of other controversial guests on Sesame Street such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I know most young girls sing along with Katy Perry. The Katy Perry Sesame Street video shows she is playing dress-up and Elmo is playing tag, fun games kids can relate to. Are adults reading too much into it? I think the skit has Venusity!

Check out Katy Perry on Sesame Street and let us know what you think. (There is one racy moment when Elmo circles around Katy Perry's legs...)

With Venusity in mind, remember to visit Venusity's delicious chocolate spa contest compliments of Pillsbury and MyBlogSpark.

Pillsbury introduces two new ways to enjoy life’s little luxuries with Sweet Moments Bite-Size and Molten Lava Brownies!

They’re ready to eat, so are ready right when the craving strikes – no preparation necessary! And, at 60 calories per brownie, they’re just enough to satisfy your sweet tooth.

I feasted on Sweet Moments Bite-Size brownies. They were absolutely delicious! I appreciated the rich flavor of Pillsbury without having to bake it myself. After nibbling my brownies, I basked in a guilt-free, calorie-free chocolate bath. It was a rich, luxurious evening without spending a dime.  The next day, my daughter and I used the foot scrub for fragrant pedicures!

Camping with Venusity

At least once a year, we go back to basics during a family camping trip.  It feels good to leave behind the everyday hassles and even escape pleasures such as television shows and surfing the 'net.

Before we bought a second hand pop-up camper, we used a tent.  The easier the tent is to setup the better it is for your family.  Let's face it, kids get very impatient when it takes a couple of hours to put together the home scene.  (Parents also get frustrated by a bunch of poles that never seem to fit properly together.)

Both Wind Ridge and Cabelas make easy-set tents that you put up in about ten minutes.  Imagine how much more fun you'll all have without spending endless hours setting up and taking down the tent.

Another camp trip tip - order free samples all year and store them in a box.  When you're ready to go camping, you'll have plenty of shampoo packets and grooming accessories to give everyone a few packets.

Happy camping and enjoy the upcoming Labor Day weekend!
