Months ago, auditions for FOX' So You Think You Can Dance? were held in Atlanta and contestant #22036 received a Golden Ticket. She was so excited, she fell to the ground and gave the camera one sweet beaver shot. Yes, this chick knew exactly how to pass an audition... were she an actress. Luckily, she still made it through, and gave the nation an eyeful of mound to thank us all for our support.
Now, I actually watched So You Think You Can Dance? last night and I didn't see muffin and this is the first I've heard of the matter. Technically speaking, the FCC has to receive a certain number of complaints before they investigate, and I'm pretty sure this would have been all over everywhere, had that happened, so there is a chance they will not get involved. However, with TiVo and the Web, the FCC changes their policies daily... who knows?
Still, YouTube has already removed the uncensored video and the only copies I could find were censored. In other words, the video might as well not even exist except for those lucky few who TiVoed the program (or recorded it by some other means). Still, it wasn't a live show and there was no real excuse for this to have gotten on TV.
We'll watch this develop and see if the FCC investigates, and what FOX says. I blame Bill O'Reilly, but it may turn out to have been a disgruntled editor. Or a really good director.

After reviewing the tape, the director of the show (Lythgoe) said there was no beaver shot. The girl simply wore dark panties and what appeared to be her girly parts were actually just a crease in said underwear... where her girly parts are.
