Read of the original incident a while back. This case strikes me as being just as worthless and pernicious as the federal statute making cartoon pornography illegal.
Did you see the video? She is half naked and fondling herself. Then the child enters and holds her hand. What's the point? Why is she using a child in this very sexually provocative video?
When it comes to innocent children I doubt you will find any respect for them among the left.
Being Lady Gaga does not immune one from the law..
I dont think she's doing anything illegal either.. Child porn is THE CHILD being nude, or being positioned in a way to sexually excute people watching.. The child isnt doing either of these..

Poor taste, absolutely.. but not illegal.
What's poor taste about a celebrity taking a photo (or video) with a child?
And for a change of pace, let's be realistic and reasonable for a moment. By quoting this article, you and the author are both implying that she was "fondling her breast, licking her bicep, attempting to pull her t-shirt down over her lady parts, and seductively straddling a skateboard between her legs" WHILE the child was physically present and witnessing. Well let's take a look...
Hmmm, I don't see a boy in that lewd equation, I see him in an equation where a woman and child are just holding hands. Whether you admit to this or not, neither you nor I nor anyone else can know that for a fact what this boy did or didn't see. For all we know, she could've stopped the racy antics while the child was present. Or maybe not, but like I've said, no one can make a concrete conclusion from that video alone.
I guess one could claim the same of the guy in Michigan. The children weren't directly involved in the described sexually explicit video, but they were added as a "prop," afterward. I don't think its right. Whether its deemed child porn, we will have to wait and see. If this type of thing is allowed, what prevents anyone from taking photos of any child on the net and transposing them in any type of sexual scene and distributing it?

Its in very poor taste for an individual to be feeling themself up and putting their hands down their pants in clip A, and then holding a little child in the next clip.. Clearly you didnt watch the video..

I did watch the clip. The clip shows nothing inappropriate whatsoever happening involving the child. All we have is an image of Lady Gaga holding the boy's hand. What the hell is wrong with that?
Did you edit this clip together? Did Lady Gaga edit this clip together? The clip is clearly an edited chronicling of the photo shoot. It's shows video clips of the photographer, it shows video clips of the photographer's crew, it shows video clips of the product (Supreme skateboards), it shows video clips of the model (Lady Gaga), and it shows video clips of the photographer photographing the model.
The only thing this chronicle tells us about the kid is that at some point Lady Gaga held his hand and they (presumably) took a picture together.
You don't know the circumstance surrounding that interaction. Neither do I. Perhaps at the end of the photo shoot the owner of Supreme Skateboards said "Hey Ms. Gaga, my wife is in the office with my son. Would you mind taking a picture with him before you go?"
All I know is that nothing in this clip showing anything inappropriate. Certainly nothing even remotely close to child porn.

Never suggested anything was inappropriate with the child, which is why I said its poor taste.. not illegal..

Might might conclude by the flashes going off while she's holding his hand would mean photos being taken.. I know.. Thats a leap considering they were in a photo shoot.. As for who put the clips together, clearly it was someone present..

Again, I didnt say anything was inappropriate, I said its in poor taste..

Fair enough. My tastes do not include Lady Gaga or her "art".
However, I don't find it bad taste to take some somewhat sexually suggestive photos and then 5 minutes later pose for a picture with a kid. I don't find it tasteless to chronicle a photo shoot. If she took a picture with a kid during the photo shoot, what's wrong with including that fact in a video chronicle of the event?
Again, I'm no fan of Lady Gaga, but had I a been a crew member on that photo shoot and my son was close by, I might have asked Lady Gaga to take a picture with him. He'd probably get a huge kick out of it in 5 years.
Also, I highly doubt Lady Gaga had anything whatsoever to do with this particular minute long video chronicle. If you find it to be tasteless or vulgar, perhaps you should save your scorn for whoever edited the clip.
