"Nipplegate" Now Just "Nipple"

Four years after Janet Jackson's infamous Super Bowl "wardrobe malfunction," a federal appeals court ruled that the Federal Communications Commission "acted arbitrarily and capriciously" in issuing a $550,000 indecency fine to CBS. "Like any agency, the FCC may change its policies without judicial second-guessing," the court said. "But it cannot change a well-established course of action without supplying notice of and a reasoned explanation for its policy departure." In other words, that split-second flash of JJ's breast was not worth all of that drama. Agreed. [Breitbart]

Thanks, Khia.

Despite enjoying the nature of the "rumors," 50 Cent took a moment in front of the camera during Super Bowl weekend to set the record straight. No, he never dated Ciara. Right. No, he isn't dating Tracey Edmonds. Okay. Unfortunately, he failed to mention his new teeth. That's all anyone really cares about.

Also, he says he never kicked Paris Hilton off the stage at his party. After all, they have so much in common, including a penchant for the word "nigger" (even though he puts the "a" on the end). No way he would ever be that mean to her!

TOUGH LOSS Two days after a crushing defeat in the Super Bowl, New England Patriot Willie Andrews was nabbed for pot possession and driving an unregistered vehicle. I would say some people grieve in different ways, but he could just as easily been caught in the same situation if he had spent the last two days celebrating. [TMZ]

I just went half the day without mentioning the Super Bowl. I can't tell if that's good or bad. But whatever — we all know that the Giants thwarted the Patriots' attempt to have a completely undefeated season, right? Now that that's out of the way, let's move on to the commercials. Above, watch Naomi Campbell dance to "Thriller" with a bunch of lizards in an attempt to sell SoBe Life Water.

Okay.

After the jump, watch the ad that wins the prize for "Most Offensive Commercial of Super Bowl '08."
