"If U Seek Amy" Britney Spears New Single Faces US Radio Ban

"If U Seek Amy" - the third single off Britney Spears Circus LP  is facing a US radio ban over its controversial lyrics.
 

Radio stations have deemed the track too offense to broadcast due to its chorus "all of the boys and all of the girls are beggin' to, If You Seek Amy", the last four words of which sound like "F**K me" when sung quickly.


"It's OK to put in on an album, have fun with it, but we're publicly owned, you know?" Patti Marshall of Cincinnati's Q102 told MTV.
 

"We have a responsibility to the public, you put this... out and act like we're all fuddy-duddies, like we're trying to make moral judgments."
 

"It's not about us. It's about the mom in the minivan with her eight-year-old."
 

An Australian mother's group recently branded the song "horrifying" and "objectionable".

ok now!!..all i have to say is , is not to focus on britneys new song but think about the 50 cents...(all rappers sing about SEX).its a second nature to them. they have nothing to sing about so why sing? even katy perry's song is called "damn"....you know??...im a fan of britneys and still am..but how hard is it to turn the station?? "were thinking about the 8 year old kid in the mini van" is a term so over used!!....get over it or get with it..
