Seriously? OMG! WTF?

The communications watchdog has found the Ten Network did not breach any broadcasting rules over a controversial incident on its reality television show Big Brother.
Communications Minister Helen Coonan said there was no breach because a hole existed in current rules governing internet broadcasts of that nature.
She said she had ordered the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) to undertake a major review of the television code with a view to extending it to the internet "Essentially what ACMA has found … is that because the internet footage was screened live as a webcast, and not stored, it isn’t technically broadcast (under the existing Broadcasting Services Act)," she told reporters in Sydney
Housemates Michael "Ashley" Cox, 20, and Michael "John" Bric, 21, were removed from the Big Brother compound on the Gold Coast following the incident involving Camilla Halliwell, 22, on Saturday.The footage was streamed on the internet to a limited audience via a paid service restricted to over 18s, and Ten’s rivals, Seven and Nine, have shown parts of it on their news programs.It showed Cox and Bric in bed with Halliwell, and appeared to show Bric holding her down while Cox rubbed his crotch in her face The men have apologised but insist it was a joke that went sour.

Imagine if this happened in the United States?

THIS is the moment a streaker interrupted play at Wimbledon by doing a cartwheel on Centre Court.
The cheeky display took place during the quarter-final match between Russian beauties Maria Sharapova and Elena Dementieva.
Security staff came on to the court immediately and held out a large red blanket to cover the man who was wearing just his socks and trainers.
He was revealed as DJ Sander Lantinga, 29, from Holland, who had been sat two rows back from the court.
He had been wearing an outfit held together with velcro that he was able to whip off in a matter of seconds.
He has been arrested for indecent exposure and is currently in custody at a south London police station.
A friend confirmed it had been a stunt for a Dutch television programme called, Try Before You Die.
A spokesman from the All England Club said: "In this case, it was quickly apparent that the individual posed no threat to the players or the public and the incident was dealt with summarily and swiftly.
"We will nevertheless review procedures."

Now I am dying to see this show Try Before You Die! Can we get a show like that here in the States? 

You can see it on YouTube.

Seriously they made a big deal over nothing. 

The two male contestants ousted from reality TV show Big Brother for alleged sexual misconduct have labelled the incident a practical joke that has been "blown out of proportion".Channel Ten interrupted its regular programming on Monday night to air a five-minute interview with 20-year-old "Ashley" and "John", respectively Michael Cox, 20, and Michael Bric, 21.They had not spoken publicly since their removal from the Big Brother compound, on the Gold Coast, over the weekend that was prompted by an early morning incident in which "Ashley" forced his crotch into female housemate Camilla Halliwell’s face.Footage of the incident was streamed live over the TV show’s website, sparking calls for the show to be axed "It was just a practical joke and Camilla knew this," Ashley told Big Brother compere Gretel Killeen."We were mucking around, having a good time, and obviously we didn’t intend on hurting Camilla in any way."Obviously she has been a little bit hurt."The pair said they had lived with Camilla for more than two months, since the beginning of Big Brother 2006, and they had developed a very comfortable and familiar relationship."We only ever intended to have a bit of fun with Camilla … there was never any intention to hurt Camilla. It was mucking around," John also said. Ashley said they "maybe didn’t read Camilla properly" in terms of whether the incident would make her feel uncomfortable, that they regretted it and were sorry "If I could turn back time I definitely wouldn’t do it … it has ended my Big Brother experience and obviously has put a sour note on my whole entire journey through the seventy days," John said.They also commented on the media storm created by the incident, which has resulted in criticism from Prime Minister John Howard down Ashley said: "I also saw the tabloids and what has been said about us … it’s a massive mix-up and we’re so sorry about it all". John said: "It was a massive shock to wake up and read what was said in the headlines … because this is so not what we are. We are good blokes and we really do treat women with respect."This is an incident that has been blown way out of proportion."The pair said they had been in a 48-hour "lock-down", managed by the show’s producers, following the incident and they were keen to be reunited with family and friends. John said he would also be "trying to convince the people out there, only an intended joke that has been taken out of proportion and we really are good people, and it’s a shame it had to end this way".

Housemates are settling down to sleep. Darren mentions the words "naughty arrow." Gaelan repeats these words before Camilla says "I’d like you to put your naughty arrow near me." Gaelan makes reference to the movie Mr & Mrs Smith.

Camilla says "There was one PE teacher that always use to keep me behind." Camilla goes onto tell the housemates that a few girls were always asked to stay behind and it was pretty obvious what the teacher wanted to do. Camilla says the teacher was in his early 20’s. Camilla says he was hot.

At this moment John and Ashley, sleeping across from Camilla and Darren, tell Camilla to come over to them. She gets out of bed and says "What are you doing? You’re not going to fart on me are you?" Ashley says, "No. Better."

Camilla climbs onto the bed and again asks whats going on. They are all laughing and Ashley again says nothing. John tells Camilla to "Lie down and shut your eyes." Ashley repeats the sentence. Camilla says "Why? You’re not going to turkey slap me are you?" Ashley says "No". Camilla says "You are you liars. Let me in". She climbs into the bed. Camilla says "I’ll hurt you if you do."

As soon as she is fully down in the bed, John puts his arms around her to keep her down. He tells Ashley to "Go. Turkey slap her." Ashley gets on his knees, pulls down his pants, grabs his penis and slaps Camilla’s head with it. Ashley and John laugh. Camilla says "Hey, you little shit". Camilla half sits up in the bed and informs the rest of the bedroom "I just got turkey slapped." Camilla lies back down in the bed saying "You guys are mean to me." Ashley says "It was funny though." Camilla repeats "It was mean." Camilla seems to be pinching John’s nipple under the covers when the video finishes.
