The sh*t literally hit the fans at a recent
filming for the MTV show, Dude, This Sucks. (sorry for the pun, I
had to say it) Two 14-year-old girls who were splattered with fecal
matter were not amused and have filed a lawsuit against the cable channel
claiming intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence and battery.
The two girls, Monique Garcia and Kelli
Sloat, were standing next to the stage during a the performance by Shower
Rangers. According to the girl's attorney Gloria Allred, "Without warning
or explanation the two Shower Rangers turned their backsides to the audience,
both opened a flap on the back of their shorts, exposing their naked buttocks,"
said Allred. "Before they could say or do anything, the Shower Ranger whose
buttocks faced them bent over, spread the cheeks of his buttocks and emitted
a spray of fecal matter,"
MTV offered an official apology on April
5th, "This is a terrible incident. It was unintended and we regret that
it happened," said Brian Graden, MTV's president of programming. As for
the lawsuit, Graden says that MTV will respond through the courts.
(Perhaps if MTV went back to a music format
they wouldnt have to worry about over the top acts in their variety shows
opening them up to litigation? -aG)
