Nearly two full weeks have passed since Justin Timberlake “accidentally” ripped off part of Janet Jackson’s top and exposed her right breast during the Super Bowl halftime show.

Lo’s green Versace dress barely held in place by double-sided tape. And now, of course, there is Janet Jackson’s notorious “wardrobe malfunction” during the Super Bowl halftime show a little more than a week ago. In recent years, celebrities have pushed the proverbial envelope, never failing to capture countless US Weekly covers and top story honors on Entertainment Tonight...
