Im glad to have confirmation that it was indeed her Tongue....I was about to email ASPCA and lobby for a proper aquarium for that poor Fresh Water Eel she was holding hostage in her mouth.The tongue thing seems to be generational. If you look on facebook at pictures of this age group half of them seem to feel the need to thrust their, often pierced, tongues out and about and into a colegues ear when available.
I watched and wondered "why do I find this so disturbing" the back up dancers were, to my mind. more provocative, as they had breasts and bottoms.
Madonna was extremely sexual and provactive, still is, but she was not the sheltered child star that Miley is. Madonna was street wise. She wore her cone shaped bra with the confidence of a W O M A N.
Miley's slender curveless figure made her look much younger and Robin Thicke older and it all came together to look just a little bit creepy
And yeah the middle age looking Robin Thicke in juxtaposition with her asexual 12 year old looking self gave the concept of 'Creepy' fresh resonance.
Disturbing,unseemly and sad.
