In the 1990's, the Notorious BIG/Biggie released a music video "Sky's the Limit" that had a lookalike kid dressed up as him and lipsynching the song, but even worse: this music video had little prepubescent girls as hip hop video vixens wearing revealing swimsuits and full makeup gyrating.

To add insult to injury, this music video also had a kid that resembled P. Diddy in it and was meant to be a younger version of Diddy.

When the new millennium began, Maury Povich's talk show used to have episodes about out of control children 10 years old and younger, some of these episodes had half naked underage girls aged 10 years old or younger who hadn't had puberty. There's clips of these episodes on Youtube.

Maury eventually stopped doing these episodes possibly because of the complaints he got.

Of course we also can't forget his episodes about overweight half naked babies and toddlers.

Fortunately, these shirts were banned in schools back then.

Unfortunately, did these parents know their kids had these shirts?

Then again, some parents wore those shirts in front of their kids and some parents would also let their children younger than 10 years old watch Jerry Springer and R-rated movies.

There were also parents letting their underage daughters wear pants with the words "Juicy" and "Sexy" across the ass and shirts with the Playboy bunny logo.

Even during the 1960's and 1970's, British people were angrily telling the British Broadcasting Company to get "The Black and White Minstrel" show taken off the air for obvious reasons, but the BBC didn't listen to the complaints.

While Benny Hill's show was controversial even back in the 70's and 80's for degrading and sexually objectifying women, was his show ever controversial for him wearing blackface?
