DONNY OSMOND HANGS UP ON LADY GAGA's "TELEPHONE" VIDEO
Donny Osmond is not at all happy with Lady Gaga's new music video for her latest single, "Telephone." On his syndicated radio show yesterday, Donny said that as a parent, he doesn't want his children or grandchildren to be able to jump on the Internet and have easy access to the full, 10-minute uncensored version of the video which includes over-the-top and graphic violence, profanity, sexual exploitation and nudity. While Donny realizes his reputation as a goody two-shoes Mormon, he stressed that he is all for freedom of speech and is against any form of censorship. In fact, back in the 80's, he took a public stand against Tipper Gore's Parents Music Resource Center and its crusade to put warning labels on albums. But, Donny said that unlike 20 years ago, today's Internet age allows any kind of content to go viral instantaneously. He feels that artists, like Lady Gaga, need to keep that in mind and be more responsible.
