A "costume malfunction," eh?

By now everyone but the Hottentots know about Janet Jackson's little "accident" during the Super Bowl half-time show. I'm sure way too much bandwidth has been spent on it, but I just couldn't resist one more observation.

Over on Dean's World, Dean himself said several times that "I continue to believe that Jackson's costume was fragile--anything made of cheap stuff leather and rivits can come apart easily," even though he had no basis for that.

Tonight I just found out that the shop in New York City that made the outfit is kinda pissed at Janet J. for dissing their work:
' Furious staffers at the freaky Manhattan fetish shop that sold Jackson the bustier she wore at the Super Bowl say she altered it to make a tearaway bra cup — giving folks the impression that their clothing for the kinky crowd is badly made.

"There's no way it would have ripped that way," fumed Sam Hill, the female manager of DeMask. '

You talk about keeping jobs here in America; you encourage folks to "Buy American," and this is the thanks that honest, hard working citizens like Ms. Hill have to face.

There ain't no justice, I tell ya...

Well, if the shop that made it says "no way," then I'd say it's at least 80% likely that they are correct.

Hrrmm. Oh well.
